Improper Food Storage May Have Exposed Him To Mold
Another theory about Chris’s passing involves the method he used to store his food. In 2007, chemists theorized that the seeds he ate were contaminated with the mold that causes swainsonine (Rhizoctonia leguminicola). As a substance, it can cause a variety of neurological disorders, reduced appetite, and loss of weight. This also aligns with his death due to starvation.
