CRON diet is practical. Fasting every other day and eating like normal, accomplishes the same goal. Though Walford's work was groundbreaking, the evidence was mice. The therapeutic dosage of trans-resveratrol far exceeds the typical dosage that most of the Immortalist society purports. Same with the polyphenol counts in green tea, if you actually crunch the numbers you'll be in the ballpark of 100, to 115 8 oz cups a day to make a clinical difference.
But as quoted above, there's correlation that you're a nut job. High fructose corn syrup, is nothing more than sugar to your body. There is really no difference in how you process it. Monosodium glutamate, though there are cases where people have been shown to be sensitive to it, is not the toxin the Internet loons make it out to be. I could take a guess that you eat all organic food too? Miracle Grow, you can down by the handful with no affect on your ALT, ASP, AST, bilirubin, albumin, or total protein counts. It will give you some gnarly farts though. Try that with manure, composting, and other organic growing methods. Same goes for most pesticides used in mass agriculture, much safer than neem oil to your body chemistry. Round-Up you can drink three ounces, and be okay just wish your regular daily water allocation. Try that with neem! It's acutely toxic at larger volumes than an ounce. Life time dialysis be damned, we're going organic!

No, I don't eat all organic, but I avoid processed foods as much as possible. I'm not a fan of white flour, white rice or white sugar, for example. I'm not trying to make any kind of statement with my diet. I was very thin and got sick a lot when I was a kid and I had a very hard time sleeping and getting up in the morning. My diet has evolved over time based on what makes me feel good every day. I'm much more of a hedonist than an idealist.
Today, I am much stronger and look much more youthful than my peer group. I think that's in large part because of my diet and lifestyle.
