Meh, the 25 days of no sleep certainly sounds like hyperbole, but it doesn't sound nuts that he would be dramatically affected by a cider if he has been following such an extreme diet. I followed a diet of unprocessed meats and fish as well as leafy greens for a long time and found both that I had similar experience of benefits as he describes and that having one bit of something that seemed normal in my prior diet could mess me up for days. I still follow a much less extreme but also restrictive diet and find that one wrong meal can cause clear issues for me mentally as well as physically for a few days.
It's not like he's prescribing that others should follow the same diet as him, so other than the hyperbole I don't really see much to get worked up about. The guy is just sharing his experience of experimenting with his diet and health. His daughter should steer clear of providing medical advice, especially being paid for such, but I don't think she should be viewed negatively for sharing her personal experience.
It was a pretty poorly reasoned article.
