This guy figured out his eczema was caused by vitamin A, so he went on an elimination diet:
He says he was cured of his fatigue and needs less sleep, his cognition greatly improved and he lost 20 lbs very quickly (I think I'd lose weight too on that boring diet!)
He also claims it could be the cause of autism, Alzheimers, Crohn's, and any autoimmune condition of the skin.
I find this really interesting as I had been eating liver for yrs before I developed a rash around my butt and then in my ears, and then on my eyelid. Not sure it's the vitamin A but I am intrigued. I can't get rid of the rash no matter what I've tried. I briefly got relief from the butt thing after doing UVB everyday on it in the summer. But nothing else has worked.
Ideas, Concepts, and ObservationsMy vitamin A elimination diet:
NOTHING COOKED WITH BUTTER or COCONUT OIL. No sauces, no ketchup etc!
- Water
- White or Brown Rice ( not yellow or golden! )
- Egg Whites
- Beef ( steak, roast, no sauces, or spices other than salt and black pepper if wanted)
- Olive Oil ( 2 teaspoons per day )
- Black Coffee if wanted ( no milk, no cream, no whiteners )
- Vitamin C supplements ( recommended )
- Vitamin D supplements ( critical, depending upon your sunshine exposure )
- Cashews ( 5-10 per day, recommended)
