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?
