i have this friend on this diet that thinks he's super healthy. he's like 6'4" and weighs about 120lbs, has constant headaches and is sick all the time. he can barely even get up in the morning on most days he feels so bad. he thinks it's because of the additives in some of the foods he eats, so he's restricting his diet more. he also thinks gluten is a carbohydrate. also he doesn't eat nuts, they give him headaches.

meanwhile i eat a slice of bacon and he's all "that's really gross dude and super bad for you." i'm like bitch you don't know poo poo about health, stop acting like you're better than me because you don't eat any protein and have a severe b12 deficiency.

he's actually a little lumpy, he just has no muscle on him at all. some fat though. he's kinda freaky looking.

celiac disease is real too. these all natural gluten free organic people get psycho about other people's allergies though.

i'm thinking about telling him about salicylate sensitivity. just to see how he'll cope.

Ooh, I found a good diet for him.
http://salicylatesensitivity.com/about/food-guide/vegetables/
Only eat the items on the left. Cross-reference for gluten and nightshades. Avoid the meat and dairy sections. Only buy from farmers markets and food coops.

This will work.

Bamboo Shoots
Beans (dried – not borlotti)
Cabbage (green or white)
Celery
Green Split peas
Lentils (brown)
Lentils (red)
Lettuce (iceberg)
Peas (dried)
Banana
Canned Pear****
Lime
Pear (ripe and peeled)

Maybe I can narrow this list more. Bananas have a lot of radiation for instance. Celery is empty.

The only food I can't think of a problem with is bamboo shoots. My friend will become a giant panda.

those are the things he avoids, yeah. he used to just be vegetarian, which I thought was dumb but you know whatever. now i can't even go to a restaurant with him because of his "diet." he won't drink beer if it has "gluten". he drinks gluten free beer. he won't drink wine with sulfites because he thinks sulfite free wine won't give him hangovers. he actually thinks the sulfites in wine are what cause hangovers. not the alcohol, it's the sulfites.

It's on the thin side but it's a normal variation, certainly healthier than being a 180lb blob of fat. goons literally do not know what humans look like

He is so ready for breatharianism. All food is poison, the most highly evolved and enlightened people live on light alone and maybe the odd cup of tea.

Some people have an "obese" BMI despite being healthy because they have a large frame and tons of muscle mass. Likewise some people have small frames and naturally gain little fat or muscle mass, and are erroneously classified as underweight according to BMI. How autistic do you have to be to say "duhhhhh this number is under an arbitrary cutoff point therefore its bad"??

Nope. You're only "naturally" thin like that if you have a disease. Like AIDS or cancer.

maybe not. another quirk of his diet: he takes tons of vitamins and other supplements and thinks they prevent diseases. not vitamin deficiencies, actual infectious diseases. like sometime around last september he had the flu and took all kinds of vitamins and was convinced that his 2 week recovery was "so fast because i took vitamins and used a netti pot twice a day"
