Otherwise, animal fat consumption (especially processed meats)
contributes to Alzheimers, lower IQ, ADHD, brain cancer risk, etc.
I doubt it's the saturated fat per se. There are more dangerous
chemicals in processed/burned meat. BTW have you seen my previous
thread about Kwasniewski who cures many degenerative diseases with
high animal fat+meat and low carb diet?

"Humans need relatively little protein, because our large brains need
lots of sugars ; we daily need 125-150 gram of pure glucose for the
brain only."
The human brain can run entirely on ketone bodies derived from fat
metabolism. Not as efficient as glucose but enough to sustain life
while e.g. killing cancerous cells.

Kasniewski also said that the Japanese diet (high carb low fat) is a
good diet. I do not know if any others have reproduced Kwasniewski's
results or if his claims have been investigated. Epileptic kids on the
ketogenic diet have seizures which has failed to be controlled by
meds. About one third of these kids end up seizure free, many have no
success, and about fifty percent of these kids reduce seizures by
about fifty per cent. From what I have read, the usual thing is that
even with this diet, these children must still take meds. So the diet
does not actually cure the seizures but is an adjunct to the meds.
There are also side effects and consequences in some of them such as
increased bone fractures, rising cholesterol, kidney stones, gall
stones and some others which I can't remember. This diet is no one's
first choice for epileptic kids.


Anybody who's seen Ondeko-Za, the long-distance-running taiko drummers (as I have) ought to have a lot of respect for white rice! I can't explain it, but a high-calorie diet consisting of little more than rice keeps them incredibly fit and healthy, and it shows.

If I recall correctly, they were running more than half a marathon every day, and putting on amazingly energetic drum performances in between, and showed no sign of fatigue. Since the men wore only small loincloths on stage, and the women not much more, it was pretty obvious what condition they were in. Their complexions were flawless, and their bodies made me wish I were a sculptor!
