I've seen, and tried keeping up with, the massive vitamin A debate thread, where this Grant fellow claims it's toxic. I tried reading through some of the thread (it's a lot), and I'd really appreciate a summary and some actionable insights going forwards. Otherwise I'm just going back to self-experimentation.
Some notes I've made:
- It seems some people think his issues could be Vit D deficiency (possible with excessive Vit A).
- ^ If this is the case, then what's a safe ratio of A : D ?
- What forms of Vitamin A are appropriate for supplementation? Say if you're doing 5K - 10K vitamin D already.
- From an elimination diet, I notice I crave vegetable more than ever even though I don't usually care for them. Maybe this is Vitamin A craving.. I feel great after a random salad for example. My general diet is beef/steak, white rice, orange juice, some chocolate, cheese, other random things in small amounts.
Thanks for any help sorting through this.
