That’s really nice that you shared your experience. I woke up in a great mood after I ate @2300 IU of A from chicken liver. I thought I had negative effects but I think I’ve actually had an infection brewing for a while. I feel dramatically better after 2 doses of antibiotics so maybe it had nothing to do with A after all. I haven’t felt brave enough to try supplements. I don’t have much of a craving for VA after having small amounts several times over the last 10 or so days. I have a feeling VA is contextually essential, our needs are somewhat individual and possibly the RDI/RDA is sometimes too high.Aleight, placebo could be at play here but there is absolutely no way I feel bad after that. If anything I feel slightly euphoric, calm and motivated. It absorbed super quickly without a teace of residue, compared to my bixen, pesto etc. experiences, the difference is day and night.
I feel much more well in myself then I did an hour ago, no doubt. There were times over the past few months that correlated with the red eyes etc where I felt slightly 'hollow' and ungrounded. I think somuch4food mentioned feeling more 'groynded' on animal A and I think I can see that.
I actually came across the blog post on better nutrition about Grant's theory trying to lookup the carotenoids content of whole food vitamin C sources like acerola, off the back of what Ray had said about carotenoids..
Where does that then place Grant's theory regarding food supply supplementation and autoimmune causation.
I still have a feeling that there is interplay between the various carotenoids and retinoids and that ratios and liver capacity has an effect.
When I had liver I felt better for a couple of hours, then I felt much much worse for about 10 days, and more liver didn't bring back the good state. What supplement brand did you use?Aleight, placebo could be at play here but there is absolutely no way I feel bad after that. If anything I feel slightly euphoric, calm and motivated.

No that's what happened to me when I had liver, it made me very relaxed and sleepy, i had a nap and I slept deeper than in a very long time and woke up refreshed. But then a couple of hours later i started feeling horrible and then I had insomnia, joint pain, digestive problems, night blindness etc. for over a week. I've tried retinyl acetate too, it was similar but it hit my joints harder.Cheap and nasty, blackmores from a big pharmacy chain.
I actually had a somewhat opposite experience postman. I became incredibly sleepy and relaxed to the point of pulling over on the side of the road. The whole thing lasted for about four hours give or take and now I feel great! Liver has a lot going on chemically and contains other carotenoids, it would be interesting to try a pure form. If I did it again I don't think I would go over 2000IU and I would probably take it at night.
Similar in some ways to my bixen experience however this tiredness was pleasant, like that from MB or what I would imagine cypro to be like. The bixen fatigue was zombie like and full of confusion, anxiety etc. The effect was distictly negative and lingered for about a day or two at a mych milkder intensity. I also came up in a rash.
How long have you been low A? Sorry I can’t remember.And now the coffee effects fizzed out, and the VA blurred vision came back, and I can't have much more coffee at all. Sigh.
I wonder what it is in milk that makes me able to consume more coffee. The retinol, the protein, the calcium, the molybdenum... It's not manganese because my coffe tolerance is very low on a rice heavy diet.
I've experimented with it since late summer last year. I didn't really go on it fully until maybe late november. then I went off it for a week in february, took me like 4-5 weeks to get back to where i was after that. So I've been very strict for the last two months, except for the cheese today, and some apples earlier this week.How long have you been low A? Sorry I can’t remember.

Coffee feels damn good in the moment and that's it. At least for me. My experiment with lattes is over, now going through fatigue and headaches. I wrote in my journal to never go back to coffee, and I was right and I will likely always be right. Maybe someday I will figure out why, but for now I do very well without it. Maybe vitamin A is similar. It feels good the first day, then go back downhill the next few days, so you take some more and the cycle continues.
