Ray Peat (1936–2022) was an American conspiracy theorist, quack and cholesterol denialist who promoted pseudoscientific views about nutrition. His most bizarre claim was that essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6) are harmful to human health and should be reduced in the diet to the lowest amount possible. Peat's dietary views have been embraced by the far-right and white nationalists. Peat insanely argued that a tablespoon of sucrose in honey can cure animals and emergency patients with fatal injuries, but was unaware that honey only contains between 0.8-5% sucrose. He made many other ridiculous claims such as avocados causing cancer.
In 2022 about 8 months before his death, much to the dismay of his followers, Peat contradicted his own dietary advice and admitted that he was eating oatmeal and putting oat bran on his food. White supremacist kook Bronze Age Pervert is a notable promoter of Ray Peat's pseudoscience.
