Ancel Keys
Ancel Benjamin Keys (January 26, 1904 – November 20, 2004) was an American scientist who studied the influence of diet on health. In particular, he hypothesized that different kinds of dietary fat have different effects on health.
He examined the epidemiology of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and was responsible for two famous diets: K-rations, formulated as balanced meals for combat soldiers in World War II, and the Mediterranean diet, which he popularized with his wife Margaret. Science, diet, and health were central themes in his professional and private lives.
In the midst of arguing against his work in her book ''The Big Fat Surprise'' (2014), journalist Nina Teicholz writes that if there is a Great Man theory of history, "In the history of nutrition, Ancel Keys was, by far, the Greatest Man."〔Teicholz, Nina (2014). ''The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet'', Simon & Schuster Paperbacks, ISBN 978-1-4516-2443-4. p. 46.〕
==Early life==
Ancel Keys was born in Colorado Springs in 1904 to Benjamin Pious Keys (1883-1961) and Carolyn Emma Chaney (1885-1960), the sister of Lon Chaney. In 1906 they moved to San Francisco before the 1906 San Francisco earthquake struck. Shortly after the disaster, his family relocated to Berkeley where he grew up. His intellect was well-known ever since a young age, as Lewis Terman, noted psychologist and inventor of the Stanford-Binet IQ Test, identified Keys as one of the 1528 intellectually "gifted" students that he studied at Stanford.〔 During his youth, he left high school to pursue odd jobs, such as shoveling bat guano in Arizona, working as a powder monkey in a Colorado mine, working in a lumber camp, and even working as a crewmember on a ship to China.〔 He eventually finished his secondary education and was admitted to the University of California at Berkeley in 1922.〔
