I don't disagree with anything you say above. As I stated previously, I think you're far ahead of the game. I follow all your blogs and am becoming a member soon. I'm slowly adding in your protocols. What I was alluding to, however, is that if anyone hasn't thoroughly investigated Dr. Peat's work, especially his older work, they are doing themselves a disservice. He used to recommend high fat diets, and told me personally he ate 50-60% fat up until about 2-3 years ago. His ideas on DHA are not perfect, and I follow epi-paleo principles, so it should be obvious where my thoughts lie here; but his ideas on hormones, carbon dioxide, regeneration, etc. are flawless and are in line with what is discussed here. He's spoken about progesterone and DHEA and estrogen dominance and all that since the 70's, and like I said, he's also discussed nnEMF, magentized water, etc. since the 70's too. He has papers on circadian biology and circadian zeitgebers, etc. If diet < environment, than it shouldn't matter what foods he recommends, because he also recommends mitigating EMF, red light therapy, and all that good stuff.
Regardless, I don't care much what people do or don't think about Dr. Peat and his ideas. So I'm not going to defend him. I'm here to learn and apply the work of Dr. Kruse, so I'll likely not pay attention to this thread and get to reading Ubiquination 4
Chris you are aware that the translation into English of the word “Okinawa” is “The Island of Pork” not carbs in Japanese, correct? I’d like to direct your attention to the work of Tanaka published in the Lancet in 1998 on the real reasons behind the Okinawan longevity. It is a genetic defect of cytochrome 1 of the mitochondria to cause less ROS and therefore less aging. Moreover, Dr. Lane published in his book that there has never been a supercentenarian from this area ever been found to not have the defect. It has the same mechanism of action of metformin in vivo. Nick Lane has these published in two of his books as well on mitochondria evolution. I reference both of these in my Paleo Fx talks.

Greg says said:'Why don't I bother with Peatatarians........?? You think you can change the mind of people who are actively undergoing brain damage literally and figuratively? I do not so I stay out of it. I bother with people who I think I might help. Not everyone will make it.' - Jack Kruse
