@TexugoDoMel Thank you. That's the quote I remembered. I doubt I ever read he ate 50% calories as fat.
But 35 percent is just slightly less than a standard American diet. I remembered him talking about making food from coconut oil like he was at least experimenting with high saturated fat diets.
I think he was only low fat for a few years.
@Serotoninskeptic Those are good points. I think everyone can see his opinions evolved over the years and his supporters opinions get intertwined with his.
I could have sworn he said somewhere that 33:33:33 would be good macros or a it's something he told a supporter. 33 percent carbs is a low carb diet. Americans eat closer to 50 percent.
But a 50 percent fat (which I recall him saying he ate in the past) and high protein diet is closer to 25 percent carbs. It would be interesting if he spent most of his life eating more like that. A 25 percent carb diet would definitely qualify as low carb but not nearly keto.
Not long before he died he was interviewed by Danny Roddy who couldn't get RP to say how much fat was too much as long as it wasn't high pufa.
@LucH Is there any reason to avoid oxalates if it's eaten along with lots of calcium and sulfur to neutralize the oxalate?
Does anyone know about this or at what age he switched to favoring carbs and sugar?
I don't remember where I heard it or the context exactly.
I'd probably take any safe anti-inflammatory. Antihistamines, aspirin if there's no bleeding issue and most antibiotics are very strongly anti-inflammatory. Hopefully this would prevent lots of permanent damage. I would also take a strong sedative until things settled down.
When the world is falling apart, instead of seeing danger someone would see opportunity. That's the idea anyway. But maybe nothing like that exists.
Fear probably drives more bad decisions than anything else but all emotions cloud judgement.
I was wondering if estrogen involved in excess emotion?

I felt bad laughing about this but he's probably not dead so it's ok
Unfortunately I can't invent the all coconut diet because this guy already did.
This man has been on a coconut-only diet for 24 years to manage GERD; is it healthy?

"People go to all lengths, in terms of their diet and exercise, to stay in shape and remain healthy. But Balakrishnan has, perhaps, transcended all boundaries as he has been on a coconut-only diet for 24 years to manage gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Sharing his story on Instagram, actor-travel influencer Shenaz Treasury wrote, “Leave a 
️ for Mr Balakrishnan and his good health’ Can you imagine — this man has been on a coconut diet for 24 years. I was in shock — what about protein? But he said he’s never had better health in his life.”
Thanks everyone for posting. Replacing the oil with coconut meat seems like the way to go. The processing creates opportunities for contamination. I didn't realize until recently how industrial chemicals get into everything.
It looks like the younger coconut is better eating but hopefully the regular organic stuff is not too bad and some day I can ugrade

Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry said in 2007 in a magazine interview that she was so depressed after her 1997 breakup with ex-husband and baseball star David Justice that she tried to take her own life.
@yerrag We only know what she makes public but this shows up:

I refuse to read the article but I'm a little surprise she's not completed menopause yet.
