am now, as required by the interpretation (mine) of the Kwasniewski
"Optimal Diet" that I'm currently following. Kwasniewski's protein ceiling is
pretty low, but of course it's not zero carb either. Nor paleo. But it's working,
and that's what matters to me at the moment.
I too eat a very high saturated fat diet. I just read a post over at
HyperLipid blog under a uric acid discussion that the president of the optimal
diet society died of stomach cancer. He had purportedly been on the diet for
over a decade and was only early 60s when he died. Anyone have any thoughts
on this? I understand there is no perfect chemopreventative diet but the
low-carb high fat diet is supposedly good for the stomach, intestines etc.
The only big differences I see between paleo and optimal diets are the
inclusion of dairy and much smaller amounts of protein...Thoughts?
