Is there a danger from the diet from a heart disease standpoint given the high fat content?
Some people will say yes. I've eaten high fat paleo/keto for a decade before this and I don't have those concerns.
It'll definitely give you a very high total cholesterol and LDL but I got tested and my HDL/triglycerides are both pretty decent. That's what I care about.

You might be able to reduce lipoprotein count by increasing time between meals, allowing you to eat a high fat diet safely.
This diet I mention in the blog post is very ketogenic and very low insulin. In fact I originally designed it to be as low-insulin as safely possible (practically no carbs and only 30g of protein per day originally).
Fasting didn't work well for me. I've done up to 7 day water and 10 day coffee (with some cream, so low calorie fat) fasts. Thing is I only lose water/glycogen weight and it immediately comes back 2-3 days after I start eating again.
