The similarities as to what each guy recommends very, very similar.
Both are strongly anti-gluten.
Both are pro-thyroid (except Wallach treats it with selenium and bladderwrack, not hormones)
Both forbid PUFA's.
Both are pro saturated fats.
Both are pro cholesterol being over 200.
Both are pro eggs.
Both are huge fans of the calcium-phosphorus ratio being in correct balance.
Both are very pro gelatin.
There's more but I don't feel like typing it all.
Really the only differences are in Ray's recommendations about sugar, and things like aspirin (which Wallach is adamantly against).
It's funny, Joel Wallach on his radio program recommended someone take 1 packet of Knox Gelatin in 8 oz of Orange juice at breakfast, with 1200 mg of calcium, with Vitamin D and K.
Wallach of course, sells his own supplements and makes a lot of money from that. Ray Peat doesn't seem all too interested in money, but if he was, I'm sure he would sell supplements too.
I think both guys are way ahead of most others in the health field.
