A man ate a stick of butter every day to do an experiment on whether it made him smarter. Before he could even publish the article he died of a heart attack

There's alot more going on here than just eating a half stick of butter everyday.

I count at least 4 red flags

>Since I discovered that butter makes my brain work better, I have been eating half a stick (60 g) per day. Usually half in the morning and half in the evening. It is hard to eat by itself but easy to eat with other foods. I’ve tried a dozen ways of doing this. My top three additions:

>1. Pu’er tea. The most convenient. As convenient as drinking tea. Put the butter in hot tea, wait till it melts. I can eat at least 20 g of butter in one cup of tea. Butter tea is common in Tibet. Thanks again to Robin Barooah.

>2. Cherry tomatoes. The healthiest and fastest. Slice the tomatoes in half lengthwise, eat each half with a similar-sized piece of butter. It is like that classic Italian combination, mozzarella and tomatoes.

>3. Thin-sliced roast beef. The most delicious. Wrap a piece of butter with the roast beef. However, I already eat plenty of meat, it is hard to get thin-sliced roast beef in Beijing, and it is so delicious I end up buying a lot of thin-sliced roast beef.

>None of these additions affects brain function (measured by arithmetic score), as far as I can tell, although I suppose the tea wakes me up.

Part1

>Hello, this is Seth’s mother Justine. I’d like to offer what little information I have to try to answer some of the questions that were posted about Seth’s death. We’re told that we’ll get a full coroner’s report in about 6 months. In the meantime we were given only “Cause A: Occlusive coronary artery disease” and “Other significant conditions: cardiomegaly.”

>Most of you won’t be surprised to learn that Seth had not visited his doctor in Berkeley in many years, and, responding to a recent question, said that he hadn’t been to a doctor during his stay in Beijing either. We are left with 3 sets of paper records. The earliest, dated 2009, reports a Coronary Calcium (Agatston score) screening which he discussed here last October. He obtained a second screening 1-1/2 year later. The first report showed his coronary artery occlusion to be about average for a man his age, with an accompanying risk of heart attack, but no cardiomegaly. The second report, following his conclusion that butter was beneficial for him, and his heavy ingestion of it, showed an improvement in his score: “Most people get about 25% worse each year. My second scan showed regression (= improvement). It was 40% better (less) than expected (a 25% increase).” The report showed the calcification to be unevenly distributed, with most found in his left main coronary artery, and none in all but one of the other arteries. Again, no heart enlargement was reported.

>The second medical report set, done in December 2011, was from Beijing and covered an exam that may have been required by his employer, Tsinghua University. This included a physical exam, an x-ray and EKG. All reports were negative, i.e., no abnormal findings and no cardiomegaly.

Part 2

>The third set of reports, from a laboratory in St. Charles, Ill., used data collected in Berkeley. They list toxic and essential elements in his hair. The latest report, dated July 18, 2013, showed one element rated “high.” This was mercury, “found to correlate with a 9% increase in AMI [acute myocardial infarction]” according to the report. His level was assumed to indicate exposure gained from eating fish. Presumably Beijing’s toxic smog contributed directly both to the mercury level of the fish that he ate there, and to the level in his hair.

>The only information about his blood pressure was in the Beijing report where it was recorded at 117/87. I could find no information about cholesterol levels, though it has not been a familial problem. Of the remaining Framingham Study risk factors: Seth did not smoke or have diabetes. He was not overweight and was physically active. Seth’s father died of a heart attack at 72.

His bloodwork was probably shit because he ate unhealthy food like butter. About 50 grams of dairy fat every fucking day on top of other unhealthy food like animal fat and salt will very probably give you a heart attack. Not for everyone but most people. Stupid people take the useless risk.

He wasn't actually on a ketogenic diet though, he just ate a lot of butter on top of an otherwise carb-heavy diet. This is like if a guy started eating a pound of lettuce a day alongside hamburgers and eggs, died, and I cited it as a failing of veganism.

I sometimes do keto for weight loss but it's mostly meat and vegetables.... Which is similar to my usual diet minus potatoes, pasta and fruit.

I have lost 25 kg (55 lbs). At the beginning I have used low-carb, then I switch to fasting.
Fasting is much easier to stick to and far superior with the results. My routine is like this:
>3 days fast
>eat low carb in a 1 hour window
>2 days fast
>1 to 2 days of cheating
During fasting take your vitamins, cod liver oil and minerals. Drink salted water and green tea. You have to do weight training oryou will lose your muscles.

Churning refines the butterfat from the milk, resulting in butter. You can then cook it down to boil off more water and refine it further.
