Crazy stuff. To my knowledge, Dr. Peat used a thyroid supplement from his 30s until his passing, yet did not make major alterations to his diet until around middle-age. I think it's a testimony to adaptation. But I don't think he ever wanted people to simply "ride a bike" he built for them - it's violently contrary to his principles of curiosity and exploration. Are you sure you listened to those interviews?
It was a figure of speech, lmao. No one would be here on this forum right now if it wasn't for Ray. That's what I meant.
This Forum! Great:
Now, does this quote count? Maybe it's the stick in the wheel. Dr. Peat built on others' work: Lysenko, Koch, Szent-Gyorgyi, Ling. Others will now have to build on his. We're all riding and building at the same time.
Sure, I rarely use this forum at all anymore. Among many things, the political direction of this place is quite dreadful. Still doesn't change the fact this place exists because of Ray Peat, and, consequently, has brought much more people to his work than otherwise would've discovered it.

Hi. I joined the forum post death. Where was it or who confirmed Dr Peat had a stroke?
AFAIK it has not been confirmed that he had a stroke.
Thank you. His cause of death doesn’t matter to me honestly. It was him that mattered, and how he lived his life.
Yes, I feel the same. I’m so grateful for his influence and example.
Danny doesn’t look extraordinarily young tho, Hans, and that other guy on Danny’s other podcast also look younger than they are (despite having kids). Kyle mamounis also looks like a late 20’s guy. I, myself, look very young to the point people don’t believe my age when told. As does my brother. Some people just look younger, nothing to do with diet. However, lifestyle may impact. Having a single life with no responsibilities in a semi arrested development way is going to make you look younger. People in the olden days looked way older than their years because their lives were tough. Either way, no matter how young one looks, they all meet their ceiling eventually. Leonardo dicaprio used to look very young but looks like a gross middle aged man now.
Patrick Timpone discussed it on his tribute to Peat podcast show after Peats death. Timpone worked extensively with Peat over the years and conducted countless interviews with him. He stated that it was confirmed that he died from a stroke.
Could Saturated Fats have been the cause?
Thank you.
I've wondered this myself. I've long suspected Peat and, by extension, most other people in bioenergetics, are a little to pro-saturated fat.
I considered the shedding too. I think he mentioned not taking supplements regularly either. We really need to understand the true cause of death. It's also possible it might be too much of a let down for us to know tho. Just my two bits.
It sucks. My interpretation of "it sucks" is that I was hoping he had the solutions to our (my) health problems, and his passing set in a wee bit of panic, the "i'm really on my own now" kind. And following the principles of his work is just as much a matter of faith as following anybody or any mainstream medicine principles.
Some radioactive contamination was picked up in food supplies in the midwest in the years immediately following Fukishima. I don't know that a lot of the long-lasting stuff would still be coming in but it would be a lot of fun to test stuff, if you could afford to.

I wasnt surprised - MANY people have told me that the weather in Oregon would kill them if they lived there. I could probably not even visit. Eureka and those areas in Northern California are only okay in August "for us" and now with this colder weather I would not even visit those places. Dr. Peat probably would have lived longer if he HAD moved to a warmer place in Mexico. or even So Cal.
