Sure, understood. I recommend this @ScienceBasedMed piece by @gorskon for a pretty compelling skeptical take on Seyfried's approach.

I'm not an authority on cancer. But...in all modesty...I'm an authority on signs of trustworthiness in people who are making claims in any given discipline.

When you have an army of cross-promoting affiliate marketing keto peddlers promoting eg, this dodgy miraculous stage IV breast cancer "cure" study from Seyfried, yeah... trustworthiness is suspect at best.pic.twitter.com/9H8lRfTSbf

Holy shit. I looked up that article. It proves nothing. Triple negative breast cancer averages a 25%-30% complete pathological response rate to neoadjuvant chemo therapy. This patient is nothing unusual, and this case report isn't evidence for ketogenic diets. @

And there has been diddly squat of an update on this patient since. Considering this clinic still have video testimonials on its website & FB for treated patients who died shortly after the recordings is somewhat ‘odd’

Sketchy doesn't even come close. Seyfried has chosen to partner w/ Slocum & Berkarda at this scam clinic "treating" cancer pts with IV DMSO, DCA, laetrile, mistletoe, etc,, What reputable researcher or doctor would associate with this?pic.twitter.com/3gudtFlIQV

Of course, the facts of Seyfried's work are not particularly convincing from a scientific standpoint, which is probably why he's attracted to snake oil salesmen and drifted definitively into their orbit.
