Chronic disease is a real problem, as anybody who has one knows all too well. Estimates suggest that 60% of all adults in the U.S. have at least one chronic condition, which account for more than 2/3 of all causes of deaths. A third of all people worldwide suffer from multiple chronic illnesses. [Setting aside the question of whether any of these mainstream numbers can be trusted.] Of course, this is enormously profitable. Treatment of chronic conditions in the U.S. alone costs around $2.5 trillion. And since we have finally recognized that virtually every aspect of modern life is a money-making racket, a cradle-to-grave shakedown, we can hardly expect this to be any different. (A racket, recall, is when you deliberately cause a problem in order to profit from solving it.)
One of the things I have learned about the most from comments on this blog is about health-related issues — whether it be about nutrition, which vitamins and supplements to take (and which not), vaccines, pollution and even animal care. So I’m opening up this post as a place for people to discuss health matters, because – if you’ve ever been ill for an extended period you know — health matters. Without our health, it’s much harder to get anything done. Illness, especially chronic, is deeply disempowering, and that is part of the health racket, too: they want us worried and spending our time dealing with illness. So it seems to me that as people who want to fight the powers that be, at least within our own spheres of influence, the first order of business ought to be taking back the power and strength of our own bodies. So think of this as a thread where you can share the knowledge you’ve learned and also ask for and give advice. Of course it doesn’t have to be confined to humans or to chronic illness or even to illness — any health and wellness advice is welcome in the broadest sense of the word.
I’m going to kick things off first by linking to two papers written by Miles Mathis. The first concerns his experience taking so many health supplements that he was getting iodine poisoning. The second is a paper he wrote in 2012 called “The Health Emergency” on taking control of your food and water to avoid toxins and GMOs.
Here are some of the comments that people have left about these issues. I’m sure I’ve left some out. Please don’t be offended if I left your comment out. I only pasted what I remembered and could find in an easy search within a reasonable amount of time. Please feel free to repost any comments you or others left on other posts here or on other sites. Also not that I do not and cannot vouch for any of this information — it could all be wrong, though I wouldn’t post it if I thought it was likely to be wrong. As always, think for yourself.
From Genevieve A.K.A. “cancelled”:
“The soil was depleted as far back as the 1940’s. Most if not all people, as a result, are malnourished. Dr Royal Lee fought this lost battle for decades; the industrial food cartel destroyed his life because of that battle. But he left an important legacy of nutritional research describing the nutritional destructiveness of the food we all consume, thanks to “the families” who were described in one comment as “nurturers”.
“Even the “vitamins” we’re sold are crap; they’re isolates which are ineffective. Royal Lee tells/told it like it is. And he predicted, being a scientific researcher, the endemic modern diseases — autoimmune, cancer, diabetes, obesity, et al. Hello? Is nobody aware of the dire state of humankind’s health?
“People will say, well we had to have intensive farming; we had to have industrialized food. But that’s not true! Back in the day, people had vegetable gardens in their yards, and some chickens, and fruit trees, and a cow. They created their own food — butter, unpasteurized/healthy milk, eggs, veggies, fruits — as a matter of course. They made their own soap…. They were not dependent on grocery stores like we are now.
“That’s been a change for the worse in many ways — to health, to freedom and independence, economically, and environmentally.
“It’s the greedy industrialists who have wreaked havoc on the social, environmental, employment, economic, and educational aspects of mankind’s world…. It could have all been so different! Love and nurturing of humanity was an option not chosen. Humanity could have been cultivated, to bring out their best qualities — if megalomaniacs insist in control — instead of crushed under a jackboot for the sake of jealously guarded hegemony fueled by greed and materialism and nepotism.
“I hate them! These people are cowards. I cringe when the benign appellation “the families” is applied to them. They have stolen people’s lives. They have, as the overseers of our earth, raped, and pillaged, and polluted it. They are nothing more than criminals.”
And in another comment:
“…the fact is, the .0001% are making the other 99.9999% physically, emotionally, and spiritually ill — basically their methods are killing people, and they know this!
“To realize this, all you have to do is look into the scientific research of the early to mid 20th century on nutrition by McCarrison, Lee, Price, Park, Wiley — a prolific period of research before the industrialized food cartel took total control of research and publishing, and bought the FDA. It has been nearly a century ago that they found the worrisome proliferation of degenerative diseases brought about by soil erosion, intensive farming and processed food by these families — much of it from sugar — was causing malnutrition, and even how that process worked. These families own the medical profession and the dental profession and the hospitals and the pharmaceutical companies and the food supply and the farmland and the minerals and the “government” and the courts.”
And elsewhere:
“I trust early to mid 20th century nutritional research articles and books. Royal Lee and his peers are excellent; the historical archives of the Selene River Press is a treasure trove with lots of breadcrumbs, covering both all aspects of nutrition and also food politics. The History of a Crime against the Pure Food Law illustrates how we ended up with chemically processed food and an industry-owned FDA. There was a war.
“Weston A Price’s 1938 book (free online) “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration” investigated the health and dental conditions of remote “savage” tribes untouched by civilized foods, and described their natural eating habits and excellent physical condition, and absence of social problems and crime — until processed foods invaded.
“The nutritional researchers back then were earnest, uncorrupted, and concerned about the dramatic rise in degenerative diseases, cancer, dental problems, arthritis, etc.which they unanimously attributed to malnutrition, due to depleted soil, food processing, and pasteurization; a great deal of their research focuses on what constitutes proper nutrition — hence Price’s expeditions into uncivilized cultures across the globe.
“Vitamins were a recent discovery and an area of avid research. Too, processed food was relatively new, unlike now; people were alive who had been raised on real food, knew the difference, and fought (but lost) against the proliferation of additives, adulteration, preservatives, and refinement of our food supply.”
And elsewhere:
“The depression epidemic is connected to the food INDUSTRY. The dead, processed food is connected to the medical INDUSTRY. Malnutrition causes symptoms that are suppressed with pharmaceutical drugs, a euphemism for CHEMICALS that are also in our water. Malnutrition also causes dental caries and gum diseases — unheard of in primitive cultures until they were exposed to processed foods by “civilization.”
“Malnutrition fuels the medical, dental, and pharmaceutical industries. But you never hear a word about the rampant malnutrition epidemic. Real, nutritional food would put paid to the chemical, agribusiness, medical and dental industries. It would also necessarily end centralized control because the only way to provide real, live, nutritious food is for it to be sourced locally — storage and transportation requires processing. And that would mean different foods for different localities, depending on climate, weather, soil, sunlight, etc. So then you put a huge dent in intensive agriculture and the transportation industry.
“The petroleum INDUSTRY, connected to the food industry via packaging, is a major contributor to the cancer industry, as estrogens cause many cancers, especially breast cancer; and as plastics are major endocrine disruptors, the cause of so many degenerative diseases too numerous to list. Primary among them is sterility and gender bending, being covered up by normalizing it. Not to mention the endocrine-disrupting bromine that is put in all flour and bakery products. So any iodine you may have is displaced by the halogens bromine, and fluoride.
“One could go on forever listing the causes of malnutrition, caused by centralized control of food resources: rancid oils, chemical preservatives, chemical fertilizers, food irradiation, ad nauseum. All of which puts the human and animal bodies under tremendous toxic stress because these wastes have to be dealt with. But in malnutrition, the cells grab what’s available, and if only inappropriate stuff is available (as in bromine, and not iodine), health gets compromised.
“Why am I writing this? Because we are being slowly starved to death by the practices of industrialists with the collusion of governments. We are being broken down slowly, almost imperceptibly — mentally and physically. The nature of our food supply is possibly the most important issue relevant to our welfare. And nobody seems to notice.”
Here is a comment from Runar on electrical and photon therapies and nutrition:
“Not before I almost was about to die in 2011 did i care to look up health. I used one of the most primitive to heal myself. It was part of the Bob Beck protocol and it created a single current to electrify the blood. And it works, it kills off invaders. Also Bob Beck created a color pulser for the healing of wounds and skin ailments: https://www.cancertutor.com/bobbeck/
“Healing by electricity is now a century old tradition, the first machines gaining reputation was Royal Rife’s. Versions of his machines are still used, in US mostly. Reading about him and the war against him by FDA and Morris Fishbein is also entertaining.
“Hulda Clark is also study worth, she created her own zapper as she called it, and she also provided a technical drawing so that you can build one for yourself. A Lighthouse in herself, forced to migrate to Mexico to run her clinic. Her books are still a fabulous read thanks to her spirit and enchanted pragmatic attitude.
“The logic behind healing by electricity is that every living thing has got its own frequency and this current can be reverted. Most small things dies fast, others are just weakened, but with perseverance i even got rid of Lyme’s disease, it took 6 years and i used Bob Beck stuff at home daily for 2-3 years but also went to a therapeut using E-Lybra machine developed by WDS. Plus she also had MoRa machine, an development by German Morell and Rasche, who measured the body’s own meridian energies, and in this way created electrical acupuncture. It has also been very helpful in revealing my many food intolerances. I had been living on poison. I think i had 4-6 treatments the first years, and then twice yearly.
“As I stopped with carbohydrates and all grass products my lifelong depression went away to never come back. I found out:
Sugar and Carbohydrates => Depression and mania
Starches (Potato and things growing under soil) => Anxiety
Corn, flour => Guilt, shame & shyness.
“This little post contains things which I studied daily for a couple of years, my few links will not reveal much of that, but beware this is the area where wikipedia is at its least respectable. Incl google. Also when researching this field you notice a very much higher number of spooks trying to mislead, than any other place.
“Also very informative is curezone.com If you have the Latin name of your problem there is probably someone who has been fighting it before. But unfortunately very spook infested.”
Some recent advice on Vitamins, raw milk, and other supplements:
From Benjamin:
Spirulina and Chlorella have many similarities, but Spirulina is the lesser alternative as it only has faux B12 the body can’t utilise, whereas Chlorella has real B12 (rare in plants). There are two varieties of Chlorella – Vulgaris or Sorokinia (aka Pyrenoidosa). The latter is more beneficial (has much higher growth factor). You need to ensure it has been grown outdoors in sunlight (not “fermented” indoors in tanks). The wall also needs to be cracked for our bodies to utilise, but its a fine balance, as the act of cracking the wall can cause too much damage, losing much of the goodness. Either “sound vibration” or “pressure release” seem to be the most reliable methods. Of the Chlorella grown outdoors, studies show Taiwan is the cleanest source. Places like China have organically certified Chlorella, but it is still not as clean as that from Taiwan. Japan is in between. All of the above should be on the products website, if not the label. Failing that, contact the company for information.
Most Vit C supplements are just ascorbic acid, which is not really vitamin C, but an isolated component, often from synthetic source (GMO, inorganic, etc). On its own that component has low absorption in our bodies. Combined with co-factors (like bioflavonoids) it has improved absorption, but often those are synthetic too. So what to do? Best to get it from food. If the food available to you does not use reliable farming methods (common), it may suffer from a deficiency of vitamins and minerals. In which case, find a C supplement that is real C (not ascorbic acid), from whole food sources. You will know it when you find it, as it the food sources it comes from will be listed on the label. These type of supplements are rare to find, but do exist. They probably won’t be on the shelves of your average pharmacy.
It’s best for the C to be combined with co-factors (bioflavonoids, minerals) to help it work, but don’t just take a ‘combined with everything’ is best approach. Vitamins A,D,E,K are fat soluble, while B & C are water soluble. Therefore ADEK shouldn’t be in the same capsule as BC. They require different extraction techniques, requirements for stability, shelf life, etc… If you see all of it listed together, be sure it won’t all work.
Miles was taking the right approach, combining C with multi-minerals, though he didn’t mention whether they were from whole food sources or synthetics.
Then there is the list of ingredients that make up the tablets/capsules themselves. This branches into a huge topic, but to keep it short, a majority of this stuff is undesirable, and won’t always be listed on the label. Even if it is listed on the label, you won’t know what it means unless you’ve researched it, which most haven’t. The best simple solution is to avoid tablets (can’t trust their binding agents) where possible, and tip capsule content into water, so you don’t have to consume the capsule itself (sorry if you don’t like the taste!). Obviously if a tablet is saving your life keep taking it, but if you are presented with a choice, you are now a little more informed. Companies with integrity will use acceptable ingredients in their tablets/capsules, but how can you be certain which companies have that integrity, when most don’t?
Finally, to label a product ‘organic’, all it requires is one carbon atom. Carbon atoms are found in just about everything, including plastic and petrol, so you can see it is a completely useless term! ‘Certified organic’ is far more telling, as farms need to adhere to strict standards in order to receive the certification. However keep in mind this certification typically means 95% or more certified organic ingredients, meaning still a 5% chance it contains pesticides, chemical fertilisers etc…
From Genevieve/Cancelled:
The problem with taking Ascorbic Acid as “Vitamin C” is discussed here:
https://www.seleneriverpress.com/historical/is-this-shot-necessary/
Hold that thought, then consider this:
It is claimed by Dr Simon Agger that legally, in America, the only portion of the Vitamin C Complex that is allowed to be called Vitamin C is the (5%) ascorbic acid antioxidant wrapper around the C molecule. (I haven’t verified this.) So, people who think they are buying Vitamin C may not be getting Vitamin C; and the ascorbic acid they mistake for vitamin C may be inadvisable or worse, depending on their condition, as the above reference discusses.
What I do know is that, when I conducted an exhaustive online search for whole food Vit C to buy, I couldn’t find any — although such supplements do exist, I later found, via a non allopathic health care provider. But whole food Vitamin C Complex supplements are not available over the counter in health food stores.
There is a world of difference between Ascorbic Acid and naturally occurring Vitamin C as found in Nature.
I’ve really been shocked by my experience with raw dairy products– I had shunned milk all my adult life as “cow pus in a bottle.” But I became curious after running into a number of early 20th C articles on the Selene River Press by those pioneering nutritionists who were upset about pasteurization, and connecting its introduction with the proliferation of many degenerative diseases like arthritis and tooth decay, because it killed the nutrition and friendly bacteria in the milk; and I believe it compromised the utilization of calcium.
So whereas it had been known as a highly nutritious whole food — one scientific experiment involved living on it exclusively for two months, with no deleterious effects except a Vitamin C deficiency; pasteurization changed all that.
The first jug I bought sat in my fridge for days, so fearful was I to ingest it, as though it were a bottle of arsenic, or a rattlesnake. But then I dove in, via a protein shake, instead of water. I kid you not, I had a surge of energy hit my body. Now I rely on it, as a primary food — yoghurt, kefir, butter, milk, cream for my coffee.
And from L Kinder:
I’ve studied a lot of alternative health literature especially since 1996 and the best I’ve found is herbalist James Sloane. He had a site which is still up called http://medcapsules.com and he had a forum on Curezone.com called Truth in Medicine.
James Sloane said here and other places on his forum that amla berry powder has the best vitamin C. But it tastes terrible, so I put it in 00 capsules. My brother has a device that makes it easier to put the powder in the capsules. Sloane said acerola cherry is second best and rosehip powder is third best. The rosehip powder actually tastes pretty good. I think acerola is pretty expensive. A good source of these and other herbs is starwest-botanicals.com/ which has them in sizes of 1 lb bags or larger and sometimes quarter lb bags too. Another source for many supplements, not just herbs, is http://vitacost.com
Miles mentioned taking multivitamins and minerals. I doubt if those are worthwhile, especially with the iodine contents. Vitamin C is best from Amla berry powder or rosehip powder etc. Sloane says it competes with glucose for insulin uptake, as insulin carries both. So it’s best to take C separate from food about half an hour before meals. Otherwise, there’s not enough insulin to grab all of the C. He says C goes first to the adrenal glands to deal with stress and excess then goes to blood vessel repair etc. But he says over 1500 mg a day tends to harm the kidneys I think. B5 as from rice bran is also needed by the adrenal glands. He says magnesium-malate and -citrate are the most usable forms of magnesium, most others being fairly toxic. Mag-Mal and Mag-Cit are good for softening plaque in blood vessels and for preventing muscle cramps, high blood pressure etc. Lecithin granules are good for removing plaque from blood vessels and for brain problems etc. So those supplements can pretty much prevent heart attacks and strokes. Magnesium and zinc are the only minerals most of us need, I think. A lot of herbs are good for numerous major diseases. Chaparral and pau D’arco are likely very good for killing viruses that cause cancer. Silica is another important mineral, but the best way to get it is by putting a tablespoon of D.E. (diatomaceous earth) in a jar of water, letting it set for some hours or a day and taking a glass of water from the top now and then. It forms orthosilicic acid in water, the most usable form of silica. The D.E. lasts a few months in the bottom of the jar.
Something on tooth decay from Alex Illi:
Most common tooth problems (such as cavities, caries) IMO and in my experience stem from brushing teeth with commercial toothpaste (salt would be enough), especially before meals, e.g. commonly before breakfast, or too soon after meals. The brushing and soap-like paste eradicate the protective layer produced naturally around the teeth. After meals, especially those containing sugar and starchy carbohydrates, simply rinsing with water would be better. Because remaining carbohydrates are broken down by normal digestive enzymes and symbiotic bacteria in the mouth under production of acids, which can easily corrode the enamel if the protective film is not around the teeth. Some small plaque is also normal and no matter of concern, especially behind the lower front row. Since about ten years practically all US-Americans seem to be concerned having abnormally whitened teeth, and I predict they’ll get lots of additional dental probs later on. Cavities seem to always quickly go away after some sporadic “oil-pulling” (you can use any type of edible vegetable oil), especially if assisted by one drop of neem-tincture (very bitter, please spit out after about 1 minute, then rinse with water).
And here were two videos of Dr. Peter Glidden that were shared that I found very informative:
AND:
Cutting Through the Fog 
Ok, I’m working my way through Garrett Smith’s website. There is a LOT of info but already I am seeing what are some red flags for me.
He claims to have discovered the cause of all disease everywhere. Sounds a bit like Morley and his inflammatory iron discovery which he wrote a detailed series on with at least 50 articles just on this topic. I’m highly suspicious of people who claim to have found the answer to everything.
He claims that even normal food intakes of Vitamin A cause hypervitaminosis but so far I have seen little to back this up. Even the study he refers to in eskimos acknowledges that their diets were very high in Vitamin A at levels that are already known to be toxic anyway.
In the section on headaches he refers to food intake of Vitamin A causing hypervitamosis, but the estimated daily intakes were ranging from 60,000 – 341,000 IU. Huh????? The cod liver oil capsules I take contain about 400 IU and I take one or two on my nutritionists recommendation. And then he reminds us that supplements contain 10,000 IU (and he’s not lying – the tangy tangerine mentioned above contains 10,000 IU of synthetic A which is one of several reasons why I would never take a multi vitamin). So here Garrett is actually showing us that there is a big difference in the amount of natural A that one would ingest with a moderate amount of Vit A in their diet and the studies quoted with these megadoses involving supplements and imbalanced diets.
Elsewhere he makes the statement ‘Consumption of smaller amounts of Vitamin A presumably has similar but more insidious effects….’ but provides no research to back up that statement. He continues…’Farris and Erdman4 and others have reported PTC following protracted of low-level (ten times the RDA) Vitamin A supplements’. Did I read that right or is there a typo or am I misunderstanding? He is saying that low dose supplements are a problem but the low doses referred to are actually ten times the RDA? Doesn’t sound like low dose to me.
In a section on osteoporosis. He states more than 5,000 IU a day of total Vit A has been associated with increased risk and severity of osteoporosis. So…..what would RESTRICTING Vitamin A do in kids then? Can you believe that it INCREASED their bone density. He then goes on to back this up in a study of Zambian children which showed this effect. BUT These children had documented Vitamin A toxicity to begin with, which was attributed to programmes employing a variety of methods to increase Vit A in the population. So the beneficial effect wasn’t seen because Vit A was restricted in a general population without established Vitamin A toxicity. These subjects were already Vitamin A toxic so of course restriction would be beneficial.
He talks about cirrhosis and refers to intakes of Vit A of 25,000 – 100,000 IU of Vit A, What??? These are massive doses!!!
To back up his theory he uses references to Vit A being used as adjuvants in vaccines and Vit A being used as chemotherapy. Ok but at what doses? He refers to steroids reducing Vitamin A being the reason for steroids being effective for autoimmunity – fair enough – doesn’t prove that Vitamin A in normal doses is the cause of autoimmunity.
His references to anything that raises antibodies being a poison – also fair enough but does that mean that we don’t need any antibodies at all? Afterall he isn’t saying that we produce antibodies against the Vitamin A itself is he? I think he is saying that Vitamin A increases antibody production in the presence of a toxin or microbe? He states that in the absence of Vitamin A there is a failed antibody response in vaccination. But is that a good thing? Does that mean NO ability to raise an immune memory to an invader? Do we not need the ability to produce antibodies to foreign matter at all? The fact that vaccination is used as the example here is also a bit confusing as vaccination is not a natural process in any case so I agree that antibodies in response to vaccination is probably not a desirable thing but what relation does this example have to real world examples where people do not vaccinate?
He refers to a vaccination study raising antibody titer in the presence of Vit A, but again – megadoses of up to 35,000 IU…… PER KILOGRAM!! Is that kilogram of food or bodyweight? I hope its not bodyweight.
There are references to retinoic acid being present in inflammatory responses. I wasn’t able to get the full articles on this. However many chemicals are involved in inflammatory processes, but does this make them the cause? Association does not prove causation. Flies are not the cause of cow dung. I need to look further into this and look at the methodologies but one thing I did note, and apologies I cant find the paper again not that I am writing this up…but it was a study on retinoic acid. But the doses used were hundreds of mg. Now a normal dose of vit A from say a serving of cod liver oil is probably less than 100 mcg. So how many mcg of retinoic acid is metabolised from 1 mcg of retinol? I would like know the answer to this because if it is a 1 to 1 conversion or similar then that means that the study was using a dose at least 1000 x greater than a serving of cod liver oil.
He also states that Vit A causes the majority of calcium dysregulation. I had hypercalcaemia. I have a HTMA showing very high calcium at the time I started taking cod liver oil. I have completely healed from the hypercalcaemia and my HTMA is now normal. I don’t have any of the other stated risk factors for hypervitaminosis like medications, multivitamins, excessive food sources, skin creams, liver issues etc and I eat a balanced whole food diet with ample fat / protein. I feel well.
I appreciate that Garrett Smith has clients with hypervitaminosis. But that’s not surprising given the huge amounts in some supplements and medications and certain toxicities that block metabolism of it. But couldn’t many many things become toxic in these conditions? It take a huge leap of faith for me to get from Garrett’s commentary to a conclusion that everyone should restrict Vit A from their diet. Is anything this one size fits all?
I haven’t gotten into his site in any great detail yet, this is just what I’ve gathered taking a look at his site whilst my children scoff their dinner. But nothing I have read so far has made me concerned that my reasonable intake of cod liver oil is harmful. I will continue to research it however.

Shell, interesting analysis. I have to say, though, this whole Vitamin A thing doesn’t seem to apply to me – as you can see I’m getting quite a bit on a daily basis for many years and I don’t ever recall experiencing any of the symptoms of hypervitaminosis generally or specifically for A. Even when I throw carrots in the stew. shrug
My liver is reputedly supernatural, though 😀 Also, I’m moderately (sometimes extremely) active physically and get outside a lot. Sleep is a #1 priority, also.

Thanks for this. Apparently people are seeing results only after MONTHS of restriction. That’s no way to live. Rabbit holes abound like this. Have you ever heard of the Anopsology? The basic rule is you can’t cook your food because it generates toxic (and tasty) compounds called advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Cooking also increases the bioavailability of nutrients and eliminates parasites. I tried Anopsology for all of one day before I threw up my hands. Enough restriction!
Methinks the Vitamin A folks are missing pieces of their own physiological puzzle. Vitamin A is an unsaturated lipid and is subject to peroxidation and that’s where I think the issue lies for most people. I am assuming these peroxides are toxic like other unsaturated fats. Linoleic acid is a major fatty acid in many common cooking oils and no one is comparing their linoleic acid to their vit A intake. Linoleic acid has been observed to be crucial for cancer to develop.
Here’s the really stupid thing once you’ve stepped back from THEIR arguments: vitamin A is a crucial component of the body’s own steroid hormones, starting from cholesterol. In short, if you don’t get Vitamin A, you can’t make progesterone if you’re a women, and testosterone if you’re a man, though both sexes make both hormones.
(Sorry for the quick and dirty, no citations, but I’m glad you took the time to go through the arguments.)

No I haven’t heard of that Chris, but I don’t do very well with lots of raw food. I felt terrible on a plant based diet every time I tried, I need meat and sure don’t fancy that raw lol.
Interesting comments on Vitamin A . I always had symptoms of low progesterone before I got into mineral balancing – I used to use a bioidentical progesterone cream. Lately those symptoms have come back a little, and come to think of it I have been really lazy about taking my cod liver oil lately. Maybe its linked, I don’t have a great deal of high vitamin A foods in my diet aside from the CLO and a very small portion of liver weekly or fortnightly. Carrots are not my thing unless juiced along with orange which I find delicious, but I don’t do that often, and I don’t rely on plant food for Vitamin A as it requires conversion.

Thanks both, I was (and am) braced for lots of backlash!
I think its so important to dig deeper. When you think you have the answer, keep digging! The first step to my healing journey was discovering I was MSG sensitive, so following a strict low glutamate diet stopped my migraines. Its tempting when you find a discovery like that to think it applies to everyone. I thought I had the answer and told anyone who would listen about the dangers of glutamate. I was convinced I had found the golden goose.
If I had stopped digging I would have stayed on that restrictive diet indefinitely, and it was so inconvenient. I could only eat my own food, so travelling was difficult and the only way I could eat at a restaurant was to interrogate the staff as to the ingredients and the cooking method. I did not enjoy being that awkward fanatic at all. Anyway was MSG sensitivity the root cause of my illness – no it was magnesium deficiency and other imbalances.
I did find it curious being berated earlier in the thread for ‘following’ someone accused of being a spook even though I made it clear I don’t follow Morley Robbins. But then I was directed towards someone else with extreme recommendations. Why? its not a good idea to follow anyone. They could both be spooks, or both be misguided, maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle – or maybe not.
Go back to the science, and even then be very suspicious. You have to critique the entire paper, and not many people have the time or skills to do that. Sometimes they deliberately design a flawed study e.g. using too low a dose when testing a natural remedy. Sometimes the data is good but the conclusions advise the opposite of what the data is telling us.
Even before I knew about spookery I loved dissecting papers – My tutor during my masters degree said I had a flare for ripping science to shreds. Back then I just thought there were a lot of stupid scientists lol.
Chrisjmay – your commented also reminded me I was taking freeze dried liver at the time I healed from hypercalcaemia. I don’t bother much now as I eat grass fed liver once a week or so.

@Shell
I dug out your long response to my question about calcium. Thanks for taking the detailed response.
For the record and for anyone reading here, I think about 90% of the health and dietary advice you’ve been giving here is absolutely wrong. You say that you don’t want to promote Morley Robbins but almost all of your advice comes straight from his approach, which I view as highly misguided (on purpose or not doesn’t matter). And as for trace minerals, David Hagerstein has discovered that they contain traces of highly toxic metals that nobody needs in any amount.
I read your criticism of Garrett’s posts. I have to say you managed to read an enormous amount of material and write and extremely long and detailed post in the short time it took for your kids to scoff down their dinner…
Almost all of your questions amount to this: “well the studies he cited are all related to high amounts of vitamin A. The dose makes the poison. And is anything one size fits all?” When I hear people say these things (and I’ve heard it all before), my response is: Would you say either of those things about DDT or asbestos or arsenci? Would you say that the notion that DDT or asbestos or arsenic have poisoned some people doesn’t mean they’re bad for everyone. No, you wouldn’t say any of those things. Would you say, “well I’ve been taking a small amount of DDT and I don’t feel bad so I don’t see any reason to stop.” No, you wouldn’t. The only reason you’re saying it here is because you’ve been convinced that vitamin A is a vitamin rather than a plant toxin for which we have no biological need. The scientist who is credited with “discovering” vitamins A and D was in the pocket of the dairy industry. It’s even on his Wikipedia page. Garrett has said the Rockefellers were involved but I’m not sure in what capacity.
Oh, another one is “But cod liver oil makes me feel great.” Yeah well so does cocaine. In the short term. BUT THE POISON ALWAYS WINS IN THE END.
Of course we are able to deal with some degree of toxicity. If we weren’t we’d all be dead. But at some point, the toxicity usually catches up. It is a slow poison and that is why Grant Genereux refers to it as an insidious toxicity. There are other reasons why it is insidious, especially the fact that in the short term it can seem to be beneficial.
But you are right that it is about much more than just having too much vitamin A. (I discussed that in the document I posted somewhere in the Health Matters thread.) Garrett is now coming to recognize that liver function is at least as important as vitamin A poisoning, in particular bile formation, flow and excretion.
By the way, the study where they showed many more signs of osteoporosis when consuming 5000 IU/day compared with 1667 IU/day. Most people can easily consume 5000 IU/day and actually have to try hard to eat just 1667 in a day. You don’t need to supplement mega doses or anything like that. Or even take CLO.
Anyway, I recommend you read Grant Genereux’s e-books, especially his second one Poisoning for Profits.
In the meantime you are welcome to continue poisoning yourself with cod liver oil and trace mineral drops, but if you continue recommending people here to poison themselves with that crap then we’ll have a problem.

I thanked you for your detailed answer to my question, even though I did not agree with everything in your answer. I thanked you for your goodwill.
As for vitamin A being a poison, my mind is made up. Just like with the Earth being round. My mind is also made up that defining vitamin A as a vitamin was part of a deliberate attempt to induce illness in people in order to profit from the resulting illnesses.
If you don’t want to comment here any more that’s fine. But look at it from my perspective: your first comment here was 2 weeks ago. So you show up here and less than 2 weeks later you start posting long quotations promoting what I believe to be a poison, which is 100% in line with one of the most diabiolical projects of the powers that be. Then you go on to take a great effort to post a very long comment tearing down the evidence compiled by Garrett Smith.
And now when I’ve explained to you about the study that wasn’t about amounts of vitamin A that are above 5000IU and here you are still repeating that all the studies were over 5000 IU although it’s false.
My snarky statement about how quickly it took you to read so many of his posts and put together your own comments come from a history of posting lots of sources related to conspiracies on various forums and having people respond in the blink of an eye trying to debunk what I posted even when it’s clear that they could never have read through it so quickly. It immediately aroused my suspicions.
So excuse me if I look at your contributions with some skepticism. Perhaps I’m being paranoid. Perhaps I’m not. I don’t know you and have no reason to believe your intentions are good. But I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt. I’ve allowed you to express your views and haven’t censored you.

If you feel uncomfortable debating this issue in a public forum, you are welcome to email me directly: joshg99@pm.com

Hi Josh, maybe I responded a little in irritation there. I suppose I was a bit narked that you ASKED me what had worked for me in relation to very similar symptoms to your wife and I took the time out to provide the info on what worked for me, and then told there is no way I could be right in what is a description of my own experience. I am merely sharing my own journey and I’m more than happy for anyone to take or leave what they wish. Now I did not say you are wrong that hypervitaminosis is your issue, I’m simply not YET convinced that its an issue for everyone, on that I did not say my mind was fully made up – if that were so I would not research it further.
As I commenced several things on a regime I cannot say what aspect worked. I’m willing to accept I may have improved DESPITE CLO and DESPITE mineral drops, hence why I’m keen to research it further. I may have jumped in early with my critique on Garrett but honestly when I logged on his site I was not expecting to be so alarmed by many of the studies he was using as justification.
My intentions are most definitely good and I absolutely don’t claim to be an expert, I’m just on a journey through life wading through all the bogus info we are bombarded with from all angles. But yes you don’t know me so I’m feeling I will take a break and wind down from here for a while at least.
I do understand you being suspicious. I have interacted with the wrong people time and time again and happily admit that I have been so wrong in the past and followed the wrong path with the maximum enthusiasm. And yes I did follow Morley’s group for several months. I stopped interacting on it out of frustration of never getting a straight answer and people would be bullied for disagreeing, so perhaps I am suspicious in much the same way as you. Anyway that was before I was so aware of controlled opposition.
Perhaps I have been posting a fair bit, I actually just have been excited to find somewhere with truly awake people not jumping on the latest bandwagon. I actually waited several weeks before posting anything and to be fair my interest was in the current events section having found this site through Miles website.
I will seek out the book you say and do further research.
Just for clarity;
I have no opinion on copper supplementation. I think maybe I mentioned it in passing in reference to copper zinc balance but didn’t intend in that to recommend copper supplements. I have no experience in copper supplementation.
I have no strong opinion on oral vs topical mag. Personally I need both. I need a lot of Mag, maybe there is a reason for that I need to look into. Some people prefer oral, some prefer topical. Some people react to oral, some people find topical itchy (at least to begin with). That is the extent of my knowledge.
I have no opinion as to whether people should have MSG/glutamate in their diet. its merely something I reacted to before I took magnesium. I thought that info may or may not help your wife as you asked me what helped, that was the first thing that made a massive difference for ME.
B Vitamins, interesting I will look into it.
Trace mineral drops I will look into, if you or anyone know of any mineral supplements I am grateful for recommendations.
So really the only thing we really have disagreed on so far is the Vitamin A being an issue for everyone, and I have said I will continue to research that and even openly said this may fit with my husband’s symptoms. So I’m not sure we really have a problem tbh.

Hi Shell, thanks for the clarification. I can understand your frustration at being viewed as a suspect even though you are innocent and have good intentions. Believe me, I’ve been there. Eventually your true colors will shine through and the ambiguity will fade, I’m sure. Again I do appreciate you taking the time to offer your advice and experience about migraines. Thank you.
Here’s the thing about vitamin A. It is stored in our liver and also our fat cells. If you are doing a study and you want to see a quick and clear result, you’ve got to use a relatively large dose to make that happen. What you are saying is “well you can’t draw a conclusion about small doses from these studies; a small dose is fine.” And what I’m saying is: no, a smaller dose is not fine and there is no reason to think that it is any different than a large dose (or least no reason to assume it would be). Vitamin A builds up in our system. You can see that if you look at average serum vitamin A levels across age groups: it gets higher as you get older. So smaller doses just take longer for the effects to manifest. That is one part of it.
The other part of it is, as I said, liver function and bile flow. If those are impaired then the liver will release vitamin A unbound to retinol binding protein and that can induce an endogenous form of hypervitaminosis A that can become chronic. The liver can even be functioning well but it will release retinol into the blood in the presence of certain pro-inflammatory cytokines. This is all discussed in this document, which I’ve posted previously: https://tinyurl.com/VitAandVaxxAnon
Pay special attention there to the studies showing the high rates of toxicity documented through liver biopsies or other more reliable methods, especially the one on South African children and Singaporeans. 1/3 of the SA kids were toxic even though they hadn’t gotten a vitamin A supplement and were not eating liver more than once a month.
Here is another aspect of vitamin A toxicity that could explain why you started feeling better on CLO. Sometimes consumption of vitamin A can reverse the symptoms caused by vitamin A toxicity if your body goes into what might be called ‘storage mode’ (compared with what could be called ‘detox mode’). Some people with vitamin A toxicity (as measured by accurate means) actually have levels of vitamin A in the blood that are classified as deficient. There were some examples of this in the South African study. I actually think that this is why high doses of vitamin A can be effective in treating measles symptoms. There are a few different ways this can happen that I don’t want to get into now but basically it is a means of self-preservation. The point is this: taking more vitamin A can actually reduce symptoms of vitamin A toxicity — but only in the short term. (And this is another reason why it is so insidious.) But in the long term the problem will come back with a vengeance. The poison always wins in the end.

Here is the shorter analysis I have done on the Mineral Drops, which are now called ConcenTrace, from Trace Minerals Research. “https://www.traceminerals.com/product/concentrace-trace-mineral-drop”
These mineral drops consists of un-refined concentrated water from the Great Salt Lake outside Salt Lake City in Utah. This Great Salt Lake is similar to another famous inland lake, the Dead Sea in the Middle East, between Israel and Jordan. These great inland lake will always concentrate run-off since there is no outlet to any sea. Any toxic metal coming into a great inland lake will accumulate over time.
I heard that these mineral drops probably contained fluoride, from Miles Mathis when he mentioning it here on this forum a long time ago. I have now looked further into it to see: how much fluoride do they really contain?
Here is a quote from an old water report about The Great Salt Lake:
“https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1036&context=water_rep”
“…the lake [The Great Salt Lake] contains the following concentration of ions in parts per million: 147, 000 chloride, 85,700 sodium, 17,400 sulfate, 8,050 magnesium, 4,550 potassium, 327 bicarbonate, 319 calcium., 82 nitrate, 42 lithium, 28 boron, 6-fluoride, and 6 silica.”
Calculation of the fluoride amount per serving
The mineral drops label says it contain about 1 mg = 1000 µg of boron per 1/2 teaspoon. From the study above there is 28 ppm of boron and 6 ppm of fluoride and ppm is the same as mg/liter (https://www.adelaide.edu.au/arcpoh/dperu/fluoride/ppm.html). So that would mean about 214 µg of fluoride in each teaspoon.
For comparison ordinary tooth paste in EU is 1450ppm of fluoride (same as 1450 mg/liter). A recommended amount of tooth paste for a child is a pea-sized amount which is a little less than 0.2 ml (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/idj.12074):
0.2 ml = (0.2/1000) liter = (1/5000) liter.
Multiplying the fluoride concentration (1450ppm) with the amount of tooth paste:
1450 mg/liter * 1/5000 liter) = 0.290 mg = 290 µg of flouride
So in terms of fluoride, eating a pea-sized amount of tooth paste is about the same as taking 1/2 teaspoon of Trace Mineral drops.
Control calculation of the fluoride amount
To make a control calculation I use these two data sets from the Mineral Foundation.
Lab test 1 (most common minerals): “http://themineralfoundation.com/documents/research/ConcenTrace%20Analysis%201.pdf”
Lab test 2 (least common minerals): “http://www.themineralfoundation.com/documents/research/ConcenTrace%20Analysis%20Range%20Sheet%202.pdf
Total volume of the whole bottle: 237 ml = 0.237 liter
96 servings => 1 serving = 2.47 ml = 0.00247 liter (1/2 teaspoon)
Fluoride concentration: 62 ppm (62 mg/liter)
Fluoride content per serving:
62 mg/liter * 0.00247 liter = 0.153 mg = 153 µg of flouride
This is comparable to the previously calculated fluoride amount per serving of 214/2 = 107 µg. For comparison the fluoride amount in a pea-sized amount of tooth paste: 290 µg.
Conclusion regarding fluoride
Not even mainstream sources recommends anyone to eat tooth paste (even as small as pea-size) and 1/2 teaspoon of the mineral drops is about 2/3 of that amount. Don’t use it!
Arsenic content
From this comment section on Amazon I found the lab tests I used above on the mineral content from Trace Minerals.
“https://www.amazon.com/ask/questions/Tx1OAWRKOA37HIX/ref=ask_ql_ql_al_hza”
One commenter made the same calculation as I am redoing here from Lab test 1 pdf.
1 serving = 2.47 ml = 0.00247 liter
Arsenic concentration: 2.07 ppm (same as mg/liter)
Arsenic content per serving:
2.07 mg/liter * 0.00247 liter = 0.005 mg = 5 µg of arsenic
This 2015 report from the Swedish Food Agency called “Inorganic Arsenic in Rice and Rice Products on the Swedish Market 2015”, made by Barbro Kollander and Birgitta Sundström, shows that 5 µg of arsenic is comparable to 500g (dry weight) of the lowest arsenic content rice, cooked in excess water which is then discarded (Figure 10 in the report).
“https://www.livsmedelsverket.se/globalassets/publikationsdatabas/rapporter/2015/a-survey-of-inorganic-arsenic-in-rice-and-rice-products-on-the-swedish-market-2015—part-1.pdf?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1”
Another comparison is that 10 µg/liter (same as 10 parts per billion) is the maximum legal limit for arsenic in drinking water according to the EPA in the USA.
“https://www.epa.gov/dwreginfo/chemical-contaminant-rules”
Half of a teaspoon (1 serving) of these mineral drops in 0.5 liter of 100% pure water means you are right at the legal limit for arsenic concentration contamination in drinking water.
Conclusion regarding arsenic
Why take extra arsenic? There is no needed amount of it. 500g dry weight of cooked rice is a lot. The arsenic content in these drops are simply super high.
Lead content
I use the Lab test 1 from above. They only state that the lead concentration is below 0.5 ppm, so I would assume there is 0.4 ppm of lead or I think they would have tested it with a much lower detection rate which is common for drinking water. For example and comparison the limit for lead contamination in US drinking water is 0.015 ppm which is just 3% of 0.5 ppm. The lead content in the Great Salt Lake is probably around 0.4 ppm since when looking at the Dead Sea, it’s mud is highly contaminated with lead (20-130 ppm) which probably means that all the Dead Sea salt is also highly contaminated with lead unless refined and purified.
“https://www.researchgate.net/publication/266494913_Heavy_Metals_Distribution_in_the_Dead_Sea_Black_Mud_Jordan”
1 serving = 2.47 ml = 0.00247 liter
Lead concentration (assumed) = 0.4 ppm = 0.4 mg/liter
Lead content per serving:
0.4 mg/liter * 0.00247 liter = 0.00099 mg = 0.99 µg of lead
For comparison taking a serving of mineral drops would be the same, regarding lead content, as drinking 66 ml of illegal drinking water with a lead concentration of 0.015 ppm = 15 ppb = 15 µg/liter. The mineral drops fluid has a concentration of lead that I assume is 0.4 mg/liter = 400 µg/liter which is 26.7 times the limit of lead contaminiation in drinking water (15 µg/lliter).
Final conclusion of Trace Mineral Research’s mineral drops
There are many minerals that are toxic in these mineral drops other than flouride, arsenic and lead. Because they are naturally occuring in the Great Salt Lake makes no difference at all. Since we know that we are hit with lots of other toxins daily I would encourage everyone to avoid these mineral drops! They contain some magnesium and lithium that could be good but mixed up (naturally) with a lot of dangerous minerals and metals.
These mineral drops are the shotgun approach for minerals, just like a multi-vitamin. The shotgun might hit one or two targets but at the same time cause havoc to everything else.

Turns out brown rice accumulates arsenic naturally more than its white counterpart (which still has some in it), particularly if the rice was grown in areas of heavy arsenic-based pesticide application (primarily for cotton) like in Texas. California varieties are supposedly not as bad.

My fluoride, lead, and mercury levels were all low. While my zinc and selenium levels were a little above average. I also take vitC everyday, which is said by some to help. So although my stomach has been fussy and sluggish, my brain has not. My sexual function was not affected either, I am happy to say. I don’t have blue fingernails, blood in the urine, or any advanced symptoms. Some of my readers have asked, which is why I am sharing. My symptoms were pretty much limited to nausea and fatigue, though they have lasted for years now. And yes, I still think Solar Min was a contributing factor, making the fatigue harder to overcome. Having cadmium poisoning during Solar Min was a double whammy. I am very happy to be on the downhill (or uphill, depending on how you look at it) side of it, thanks to Josh.

b) I had huge issues adapting my eyes to the new (gifted) monitor, since I used to work on a 22” one, while the current one is 32”.

I have no idea about the refresh rate, but check your monitor settings — some come with a ‘low blue light mode’ that automatically reduces or eliminates the blue light.

I must say that I doubt this magnet-sticking-to-the-injection-site claim. Not only that the demonstrations are unconvincing as portrayed, but that there could be enough of a load of ferrous ENP’s (engineered nano particles) in an injection, let alone still clustered at the site, in order to hold a magnet….or is there enough of a granuloma (bodies attempt to isolate a foreign substance) formed that could affect a magnet?
However, the paper I linked to above does refer to them as “superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles”. What exactly does that mean?…The following link at least gives a few words about the MO of their use via external magnets.

And I realise its possible I have limited many high Vitamin A foods intuitively. Chocolate and orange juice don’t agree with me so I greatly reduced them. I dislike carrots, sweet potatoes, and tomatoes, coconut fat and meat fat. I don’t mind tomato based sauces and soups but never cook with them as my husband reacts. So aside from the cod liver oil, which I take only one 400 IU cap probably twice a week (Its one that has no added D or A), I think I am eating a relatively low Vit A diet.
My husband reacts to many of these foods, he has terrible IBS and it has always been a curiosity that it is foods from seemingly different groups that trigger him, though it would seem they are all high in A (dairy, tomatoes, oranges, fatty foods to name a few examples). And after years of smoking his liver is a bit screwed.
So we are going to try the detox with my husband, we have nothing to lose. And at least he likes steak and potatoes…….
I also passed the info to my mother, in a neutral manner of ‘I don’t know what to make of all this yet as its very new to me but take a look and decide if you want to try it’. Anyway she has been taking three of the CLO caps and juicing carrots every day so she really might be high. She has osteoporosis despite living very clean indeed so she has decided to err on the side of caution and remove high A foods and the CLO while we look into it. In any case she has taken enough for a long time that a break cannot hurt.
One of things I find curious is they said in the podcast that plant vitamin A might be even worse than preformed. I remember thinking a while ago that it made no sense to eat plant foods in order to boost A as you need such a large amount to end up with the same amount of retinol. So I never sought to include beta carotenes in my diet as it made no sense to me that you would need to consume enough of something to potentially turn orange when it must be much more efficient to just consume retinol. So I figured a low dose of Preformed A was all I needed and I feel good so I’ve been happy with my regime. I might as well drop the CLO for a while and see if I notice any changes.
I will repost in a few months to update.

I honestly believe that we are all individuals with very different requirements when it comes to food.
If you do have health problems it’s sensible to do your own research and take on board the thoughts of other people. However it’s wise to listen to your own body first and foremost. Your body is your own little laboratory and what is good for one person is not necessarily good for you.
The meat eaters will try and persuade you that it’s our natural food whilst vegetarians and vegans will say otherwise . This vitamin is the definite answer or is it THAT vitamin ? Only in this time of plenty would we be worrying so much about what we do or don’t eat.
Whatever you choose to include in the diet should be the most natural unadulterated as you can possibly afford. After that.……….,relax. Life’s too short for all this unnecessary hassle. Just listen to your OWN body.

Shell that’s amazing! I really hope this helps you. I also recommend reading Grant’s second book, Poisoning for Profits. For sure the first 5 or 6 chapters.
About eating the rainbow, see these posts on Garrett’s old blog on aposematism (bright colors in nature as warning predators) and eating the rainbow as nothing more than a marketing gimmick. Be sure to read the “Five a day: the truth” article linked at the bottom of that second post — not for nutritional advice but just to get a better sense of the industries behind the eat-the-rainbow and five-a-day campaigns.
Here’s an interesting anecdote from somebody who saw my information on vitamin A and decided to give it a try. This is a guy in his early 60s. Very athletic. Ski instructor who lives in the Alps. Generally in very good health but always looking for ways to improve his health and longevity. He also didn’t have a ton of vitamin A in his diet. Here is what he wrote to me about his improvements after quitting A (here it is important to emphasize that vitamin A has been clearly shown to be a mitochondrial toxicant):
“I had a surge of increased energy shortly after eliminating most of the vitamin A from my diet. On a 70km [cycling] circuit with 2400m of vertical climbing the improvement was in the region of half an hour.
“In the months prior to that I’d been pretty much confined to running and it was like I’d become old and couldn’t make progress. Later on I dropped the running and my cycling is now back up to match the best it’s ever been (except I haven’t working on short fast climbs). . This winter – still not working – I’ve returned to running for fitness and without even trying I’ve found I can run properly again. Currently I frequently do a 6km loop with a 1000ft vertical climb in 32.5 minutes and my resting heart rate is back down to 39 bpm. Things I didn’t expect to see again at age 62.”
I also convinced him that vitamin D supplements are poison so he’s bought himself a uvb lamp and uses that instead since he’s concerned that he doesn’t get enough good sunshine at his latitude.

Thanks v much for that, particularly the rainbow veg info, this will be useful in convincing my Mum. She is going to try the diet but cant quite get her head round the rainbow veg stuff. She follows a British writer Chris Wollams who wrote and promotes his book about eating the rainbow diet. I dont know if he is a spook (probably is) but she is hooked in that he is genuine as his daughter allegedly died of a brain tumour, and she thinks its great that he went to Oxford Uni, she totally trusts him and cannot hear that he might be wrong (he read biochemistry you know, nevermind that he immediately took a 20 year ‘sabbatical’ and quickly rose to very high levels indeed in advertising). This is him https://www.canceractive.com/article/chris-woollams.
I think I recall they used to deliver their free magazine to cancer places.
Funnily enough many years ago we took my Nan to a British cancer charity supported by Prince Charles, they offer free nutrition consults to cancer patients. It heavily promoted a plant based rainbow diet. That was when I was just getting started out in natural health and trusted all the BS gurus. Her naturopath put her on high dose D3. She suffered greatly in her final days and then the hospice finished her off by sedating her and restricting salt and water after being diagnosed with hyponatraemia. Upon visiting and finding out, I was asking why on earth she wasnt being given salt and water. She was gasping. I was young then and less self assured but if it was now I would be immediately demanding salt and water. I had planned to take some in to her the next day but she died that night.
I am going to keep a diary of everything I notice in my whole family through doing this diet. My Dad has had high blood pressure for about fifty years and high cholesterol for many. He recently had a third BP medication added in. The book says the diet should work for these issues, If this helps his BP I will literally fall on the floor with shock and joy. I have ALWAYS wanted to find the cause, I dont accept ‘idiopathic’ as a description for anything. He thinks medical science has kept him alive for fifty years, when the reality is medical science cannot be bothered to find (or more likely is hiding) the cause as its not in their interest to cure anything.
Lately my nearly 3 yo has been getting a stinging rash on warm sunny days, now I wonder if it is the beginning of light sensitivity due to Vit A. Feels like we may have dodged a bullet. Thank God my childrens livers are growing and they shall soon increase storage capacity.
Good endorsement from your athletic contact. Definitely going to read the second book.
I definitely had some serious cogniitive dissonance with this at first. It is very interesting though that Genereux approached this with an engineer’s logic.
Anyway, I have an assigment due soon for Year 1 of my nutrition course in which I get to select a disease to write an essay on. Four of the seven topics are autoimmune diseases including eczema and another is Alzheimers. So you can guess what kind of approach I will take to this essay.

Hi Shell,
Its heart warming to see someone be open minded enough to revise their outlook based on new evidence, and that you’ve taken the Vit A thing on board.
In that spirit, regarding your dad and high cholesterol and high BP, can I suggest you read, “The Great Cholesterol Con” by Dr Malcolm Kenrick.
By mum was diagnosed with arhythmia a few decades ago. Her GP then put her on the entire medley of heart related drugs; statins, BP controller, beta blocker, anti water tablet, warfarin. She had an entire shelf in her fridge for these things and was taking stuff all day long.
It wasn’t until she started suffering from dementia and I had to start giving her tablets that I realised just how drugged up she was. One day she said to me she hated taking them, she said, “they just remind me that I am ill”. After careful research and consulting a slightly reluctant GP I weaned her off the whole lot.
Later when she needed residential care due to her decline, becuase one of those tablets was still listed on her medical records the new idiot GP who attended the home put her back on it. Several months later she was admitted to hospital having collapsed with a suspected heart attack.
Luckly she rallied but the registrar at the hospital advised me the likely cause of her ailment was the tablet, and he issued instructions to the GP to cease it.
She was discharged the following day in full health, though mysteriously with a prescription for anti depressants, which I immediately researched and discovered to actually cause psychosis and be addictive so had those stopped. They had not been requested, and I had not been informed in advance. When I spoke to the manager at the care home she told me a lot of the residents had a prescription for them, but they didn’t like giving them because it, “turned them into zombies”
Please do check out Dr Kendricks book about chlesterol.
I despise and mistrust the entire medical profession so you could say I have extreme views, but it wasn’t always so. I believe they gave my mum dementia with those poisons by starving her brain of vital nutrients, and diminishing the blood brain barrier with blood thinners, and if her original idiot GP had looked at the facts he would have realised her only problem was panic attacks caused by having been burgled.
I can’t prove it but believe the entire dementia scourge was planned, and that there is a possibility your dad is at risk of falling into that hole.
I hope this helps you in some way.

Thank you for the recommendation Graham, I will look into that book. Im sorry about what happened to your Mum. Years ago I worked for the NHS as an audiologist, very occasionally I had to visit a care home. They are very strange depressing places. We could do so much better. Years ago I used to have a dream about one day opening up a care home where the residents would be fed good food, clean water etc where the elderly could spend their last years in comfort.
Dementia is heart breaking, so undignified to be robbed of mental faculties. I despise the medical profession also. There are some decent people in it but so misguided. I was glad to leave the NHS as I found it too frustrating having to follow protocols I did not agree with. I later worked in a private practice briefly but did not like that because the upsell with hearing aids is wireless tech, worn next to the brain all day long.

I was lucky with my mum, she is placed in a very good home, its family run and all the staff are loving and caring people, I would not have left her there otherwise, and I coudn’t match the continuous company or regular activities they arrange if she were still being looked after at her home. Their chef used to be personal chef to some premiership footballer, honestly I sometimes envy her – not the dementia itself obviously.
The only criticism I have is they’ve had to buy the whole corona lie and follow governement dictat for fear of being closed down, so I haven’t been able to see her in the flesh for months. Even now they expect masks to be worn, home tests to be done, and a nice walk through some chemical tunnel before I could even get in the building. Its actually a prison now, but a very pleasant one.
On the statins, the day I accompanied mum to her GP about stopping them, the GP tried giving me the usual horse shit about high cholesterol risk and I informed her bluntly it was not a debate, but that we were there to have them removed from the prescription list. As she was typing I asked her if she’d heard of Dr Kendrick, she went bright red and confirmed that she had. I think she knew full well they were harmful but still felt she had to push them
I know not if GPs are too scared to deviate from their script or are actual psychopaths, but i do know they get paid rather well to poison people and for that reason I would happily return the favour.

For many years it has been encouraged for people to litigate opportunistically for H&S incidents even if very minor. It has created a culture of nobody taking responsibility for having at least a reasonable amount of their own common sense and companies having an intense fear of litigation so even smaller companies feel pressured to go along with ridiculous mandates. And the concern is not paranoia as often their own employees would turn on them in the blink of an eye if they can get a few quid.

Eating bread seems just fine if it works for you but that should avoid the emulsifoers and other additives if you buy some bread. For me personally I eat some butter but for some it seems better to avoid it and I don’t think there exists any good butter substitute. I personally think that smaller amounts of butter is fine for me but Grant Genereux think it should be off the menu.
Whole grain should be better than plain bread if you can tolerate it. Oats could also be hard to tolerate since quite high amounts of lutein.
Regarding breakfast ideas here are some ideas:
Porridge (cooked) with your chosen topping:
Oats
Oat groats
Barley flour
Any flour really
Over-night oats (cold porridge)
Bread with your choice of “topping”
Hard bread dipped in hot liquid
Pancakes made with alternative milk (like nut or oat milk)
Pancakes with banana and egg that has been mentioned (could remove yolk if you like)
Cold or warm potatoes
Cold or warm rice
Left overs from day before.
I hope this helps you!

If high Vitamin A can cause light sensitivity, can it also cause wifi/EMF sensitivity?
My son used to get a stinging skin rash that disappeared rapidly when we got rid of the wifi. Within a week so I’m certain the wifi was a trigger. It was a little bit eczema-like. He also had a strange restless twitch that also disappeared.
Not that I want wifi again, not at all, but we can’t completely avoid it unless you go live under a rock and I’m just curious why some people are more sensitive to it than others and I’m quite interested in that topic.
With light being a frequency/wavelength or whatever, would wifi fall into a similar category? Sorry if that definition is not accurate, I’m not too great at physics.

Thanks, thats interesting regarding the underground high voltage cables. Although the pylons that carry the cables in the UK are ugly, at least its easier to spot unhealthy areas to spend time. When we were buying our house years ago it was a top criteria of mine for it not to be near pylons/wires. We passed up on some nice houses because of that.
About 4-5 years ago I had a chap come and do an EMF survey of our home. I was aghast at how much our gadgets were pumping out, the worst being the wifi router itself, and there was a raised magnetic field right where my children slept. Not long after I bought a couple of pocket meters, one for microwaves, the other for magnetic fields.
I used to occasionally take some readings when I was near mobile phone masts and pylons. I found that the wifi router I chose to bring in my own home was giving a higher reading than being over the road from a phone mast (not saying anyone should spend time near a phone mast! Just pointing out that many people tend to think of wifi as weaker). Anyway I logged in my router and switched off the wifi and we connected everything with ethernet cables. It was still pumping out radiation tho! Anyway, logged back in and in a completely different section I found that the telecoms company were using my router for a hotspot, even tho I wasn’t using wifi myself!
We switched off wifi in the smart TV. But when you put the TV in standby, the wifi signal goes back on! Without a meter to verify you cant trust the settings on anything.
I got an electrician in and the raised magnetic field was cause by a faulty fuse spur in the room below my childrens’ bedroom, once that was repaired it was fine.
The other thing I did was play around with the settings on my phone. If I switch off wifi, bluetooth, mobile data and switch the network setting from 4G to 2G the radiation is much much lower. The increase in radiation from when we went from 2G phones to 4G is huge, and people carry them around all day. Cant be good. I only switch on extra features in the moment I want to use them and even then I try not to.
Occasionally I show people what their phone is pumping out on my meter. Some people are shocked by it.

Routers, smartmeters, and security cameras are also a hazard. The computer monitor is a major source of EMF. Transparent shielding is available at lessemf.com and their are also vests. LED and fluorescent lights have dangerous switch-mode transformers that operate in the ultrasonic range. Simple halogen bulbs and traditional bulbs are best. Power cords and wallwarts are a hazard.

Funny thing is when I used to have dogs (and bearing in mind my labrador used to eat anything) they would never touch a meal of liver.on its own. If I offered it outside they would bury it. I thought they were weird. Every single raw feeding guide I have ever read says to feed liver as apparently they eat the whole animal in the wild, they even tell us its the first thing they eat, but now I question that.
Its hard to find a ground food without liver so for now I bought a bunch of organic muscle meats. Most raw feeding guides say they need to eat bones too so I’m going to have to figure out if that is true or not. I have found one supplier that does a mix of 50 % meat and 50 % bone so maybe just feed that once a week for now until I figure out what the truth is……

As to diabetes, once whenyoungerI worked someyears at a Biabetes research facility (PNRI< Seattle) and all we were thinking about was excess sugar in the blood, which sounds somewhat inoculous. However if there is excess sugar in the blood , that means there is excess insulin, and that the response to insulin by muscles has been essentially less effective;(insulin resistance) but all cells haev insulin receptors…and insulin has many effects everywhere. Curiously there are no essential carbohydrates for life and more and more people are appreciating that insulin is a “global messenger” coordinating with other global messengers..to influence health and disease.
,
It has taken a long time to suggest that carbohydrates at times may be unhealthy and fats may be a better energy source..as there really is a sugar lobby and just look in a grocery store how much money is made selling sugar/carbohydrates. Fats though require healthy mitochondria to be metabolized..and all the time you need as many healthy mitochindria as you can get. But I realize it is tough to just not eat carbs…as of course Cokea cola is the real thing.

Let me add one more thing that might not be clear as i realize the NO Fat thing was a big project. Yes fatty acids may not fuel the brain or heart, but in the liver they are metabolized to smaller waters soluble beta hydroxy butryrates, which are perfect for brain and heart (the heart is mainly mitochondria). as they are used by ,mitochondria. as energy (OXPHOS) I realize this could be a “counterproject”, but hey people have been storing energy as fats since forever; your fat is not to cushion your flesh, but actually stores more energy than carbs would. It is even easier to fast when on high fat diet than a hig carb diet; fasting is like a religion of sorts.

In my non-professional, amateur opinion, I agree with thechemicaluniverse and would like to add that I have read that dietary carb & sugar intake is consumed by cancerous cells first so one way to “starve” them is to go low-carb/keto.
I’ve been wanting to clarify some things after a response from Benjamin some weeks back:
Glucose is the body’s “gas”. It is what blood sugar is and that gets transported to all cells and the brain is the biggest “glucose hog”. If there is no dietary source of it, the body will switch to converting fat stores into blood glucose in a process called ketosis.
Even though it is fuel, in excess it is toxic – you’d go into a coma. To regulate this, the pancreas secretes insulin when toxic levels of blood sugar exist which results in converting these excess sugars into fat stores. This is why people can get fat eating 0 dietary fat.
Generally this doesn’t happen very often in nature because most carb sources have fiber which modulates the sugar absorption so it doesn’t “all hit at once”.
Modern diets have made high-glycemic-index sugars readily available which is mainly why there’s been such a dramatic increase in early-onset diabetes in the last century.
This blood sugar “seesaw” from huge high-glycemic carbs to insulin response over and over again wears out the pancreas to the point where it can’t secrete insulin to control sugar toxicity and hence we have diabetes. There are the 2 main variants which are basically how bad it is. Type 1 is the kind where insulin MUST be injected when there’s too much sugar or eventual death results.
So, to Benjamin, sugar and carbs are obviously not “bad” per se but it’s how they’re consumed that’s the key.
Since modern energy requirements tend to be a lot less (we’re not toiling away with plows and hay forks any more), there’s really no need for people to eat that many carbs. Fat and protein are still needed for hormone production, tissue replacement etc. and as long as there’s sufficient dietary fat intake the body is just fine burning off its fat stores and indeed there’s quite a bit of research showing that powering the body through ketones is better overall.
A car analogy – using nitrous oxide as a fuel will definitely make you go faster but it will also wear out your engine faster.
The only thing I’ve had issues with in terms of energy w/ketogenic is that, once my muscles’ glycemic stores have been exhausted, I don’t have “burst” energy. I found this out in martial arts, that I could work out steadily for hours but summoning the sudden energy to, say, flip a 200 lb person off of me from my back just wasn’t there. So I started selectively carb-loading by taking a couple glucose tablets the night before to replenish my muscle glycogen stores and that works OK.
Otherwise I can go for HOURS on ketones without having to rest or replenish, it’s amazing once you train your body to burn fat. This goes for mental activities as well, in terms of long-term concentration and focus. No more 1-hour blood sugar rush followed by a crash. Interestingly I’ve seen some medical pros recommend consuming a high-carb meal before desired bedtime for insomnia. Not that I think it’s good, but it’s a real phenomenon.
Backing up, my only suggestion would be to cut high-glycemic carb intake and increase nutrient density. The thing is, when the body is that degraded, simply absorbing the nutrients might be a problem and intravenous nutrition might be required until the intestines can repair.
Keep in mind this is just personal and anecdotal based on my own research and activity.
Remember, doctors smoke Camels more than any other cigarette!

Hey Ho..I also am an “armature” at6 health, it is like a religion I foundas I lay dying. But the reaon I was laying dying is because I had all these chronic diseases. OK in tehory there are two soyrces of energy, one being carbs and the other fats, though some amino acids can be converted to energy. OK sugars you can ferment (glycolysis) and also burn in your mitochondira (OXPHOS) which produces much more energy(ATP) than glycolysis. Fats need mitochoindria and the OXPL+HOS to burn.
OK all my life and most of my Dads there was a spook project to demonize fats and cholesterol. My Dad was totally NO FAT, even plants only until he died. This was even in Time magazine all over like Covid19 fo its time. Now curiously everyone knew that the cure for epilepsy was no carb diet,and for type two diabetes until the drug companies developed pill to take..Curiously with the 20th century the Sugar lobby and seed oil lobby became real” Lobbies” and began influencing the American diet.
If you eat both carbs and fats, the carbs are “burned first”, but excess carbs are converted to fats.As your body store energy as fats..in case you did not know. However most times you do not burn them, except if say fasting, and curiously one can fast for quite a long time; your body adjusts as hey it was natural .
Your metabolis, for some people changes as you age, and you dont burn carbs as well as you should, producing excess insulin which has all sorts of effects. This is called metabolic syndrome. (My Dad started wearing looser Guyavera Cuban shirts) Now this is bad because yoyr fat stores become proinflammatory..which may be the beginnings of most chronic disease processes.
I spent a lot of time trying to cure cancer,(We had Wnt pathway modulatorss) and for sure the best cyre is not to even get it in the first place. But hey if heart disease and cancer are number one and two reasons for death, are they diseases or natural deaths, as both have comorbidities…and yes the older you get the greater the chance you will vcatch them)
Anyway I hope your Dad survives and prospers..as hey Hospitals are not for children..

For a long spell I did not even see doctors. But then some 22 or 23 years ago I was diagnosed wiyth CHF, Sleep apnea, hypertension, high cholesterol, high lipids, obesity and depression and pacemaker implant (What am I leaving out?) Oh yeah the half life on CHF was 5 years.and curiously, all my life my heart has been beating.
I am not sure now whether it helped me to know that, as curiously I realize that somewhat qualified my life more than quantified it. I did not know then that the doctors were just following manuals they memorized. No we did not discuss how these diseases might be related, as I had just been employed and had geat insurance. Nor did we discuss how insulin affects chronic disease. He did mention though that there were some miracle drugs to help .
Heart fisease is “scary” and yes I knew that because my father had died from it. The first I began to question my doctor (a new electrophiysiologist) was after they implanted a pacemaker, and suggested I take amiodarone for arrhythmias. HAH,.In the literature it also did not prolong the quantity or quality of life, it may have reduced the shocks you got, as if the shocks were a disease in themselves.yet did of course have significant side effects and drug interactions this drug has about a 36 hour half, which means the concentrations after 36 straight days of taking it absolutely no mechanism of action, caused significant chance of lung damage (you needed separate lung testing tests) what all else , oh yeah It caused significant sun problems…they advised not getting sunshine..which I found strange since I recently had decided to move from Seattle to So Cal.
Anyway I have learned a lot about cardiology since, so much so I gave up even seeing them. Each year they would do expensive diagnostics, each year about the same. So I was kind of pleased when this pandemic first came, as it proved my belief that medicine was “BROKEM”. I am now wondering how these last 23 years would have been different, if instead of telling me the probabilities of my death, we had talked about optimizing and expanding my healthy life, as why did I have all those chronic diseases to begin with??

If you have read Grant Genereux’s free e-books, Grant talks about how vitamin A damages epithelial cells.

I’ve tried to get at least 50mg of zinc a day for several years now. Haven’t gotten ill at all. Here’s an informative snippet from one of my sources, Ben Fuchs (yea I know he’s Jewish but that doesn’t mean he’s in the PN):
“In Dr. Ananda PrasadIn’s seminal book “The Biochemistry of Zinc”, the nutritional chemist’s go-to guide for all things zinc, there is ample picture proof of the tragedy of deficiencies in the super, unbelievable important mineral. Page after page of photographs taken of children and adults who suffer from nutritional lack of zinc depict the impact of deprivation of this vital nutrient. Stunted growth, skin lesions, hair loss, wasting away syndromes, where the body becomes emaciated and frail, are all vividly portrayed. And zinc deficiency can cause less dramatic health problems too: immunity, skin and bone, the brain, the eye, reproductive and general hormone health, and blood sugar balance and insulin and digestive integrity largely depend on the presence of this incredibly important nutritional metal.
The scariest thing about zinc deficiency is its frequency, which makes it one of the most significant and widespread nutritional deficiencies in the world. 1 out 3 people world-wide is at risk for zinc deficiency and in developing countries, where cereals and grains (which contain zinc-binding compounds and are often-times grown on zinc deficient soils) provide the bulk of caloric intake, it is the 5th leading risk for disease.
Zinc is involved in over 200 different enzyme systems in the body. In other words, if there is any manner of deficiency, literally hundreds of biological systems will be operating at less than peak efficiency. The net result of zinc deficiency is a body that is dramatically less effective at growing, repairing and cogitating and is less able to perform, thrive and resist stress and disease.
Zinc is a key component of the body’s wound healing system. This can be especially helpful pre and post surgery. And, one of the best ways to help heal a sore throat and shorten the duration of a cold or a flu) is to suck on zinc lozenges. Most people notice relief within a day.”

Coincidentally, zinc sulfate can apparently be used to test for zinc deficiency – “You can tell if you’re deficient in zinc by doing the “zinc taste test”. You can use a solution of zinc sulfate and water (available online) or you can place a zinc sulfate tablet on your tongue. If you’re not instantly repelled by a strong metallic taste chances are pretty good that you’re suffering from a lack of zinc.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightingale_Pledge
The original 1893 version of the pledge included, “I shall abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, and shall not take or knowingly administer any harmful drug.”
Updated in 1935 to, “I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, and will not take or knowingly administer any harmful drug.”
And a modern version often now used includes: “I will not do anything evil or malicious and I will not knowingly give any harmful drug or assist in malpractice.”
I think that means any of them pushing the vaccine or the Covid lie have broken their pledge and thus demonstrated their complete untrustworthiness, or don’t know what VAERS is, so might need advising.

Hi!
I just wanted to point out the connection between many high vitamin A foods and the Age of Sail. Many previously unknown foods were then introduced. This connects the introduction of many high vitamin A foods with Portugal, Spain and later all the different East India companies. I find it very curious that the rich didn’t seem to eat any of the capsicium peppers or the tomato that they brought here from the Americas on their ships own ships.
“The orange is unknown in the wild state; is assumed to have originated in southern China, northeastern India, and perhaps southeastern Asia (formerly Indochina). It was carried to the Mediterranean area possibly by Italian traders after 1450 or by Portuguese navigators around 1500. Up to that era, citrus fruits were valued by Europeans mainly for medicinal purposes, but the orange was quickly adopted as a luscious fruit and wealthy persons grew it in private conservatories, called orangeries.”
https://hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/orange.html
This popularity of orange is here said to maybe have been a reason for some Dutch people for trying to breed orange carrots; carrots which were mainly purple prior to the orange carrot.
http://www.carrotmuseum.co.uk/history3.html
Capsicium peppers (pimentos) were first brought to Spain after Christopher Columbus.
Here is a quote from the book “Food in Early Modern Europe” by Ken Albala:
“But the very fact that they [peppers] could also be found as far away as China within a few years has led some scholars to suggest that they may have reached Asia even before they did Europe. It is certain though that the Portuguese brought peppers to their colonies in Asia. Peppers were first described in Europe in the German herbal of Leonhart Fuchs in 1542, but he thought they came from India. Like several other New World imports though, it appears that poor people were the only ones willing to eat them; they are not even mentioned in cookbooks which naturally catered to a literate and elite audience.”
Some other high vitamin A foods also brought to Europe in conjunction with the discovery of the Americas:
Tomatoes
Sweet potatoes
All the different types of spices that are known to be liver harming (as in they are taxing for the liver because of their toxicity); such as nutmeg or cassia cinnamon.
Another quote from the Ken Abala book about tomatoes:
“Despite the current enthusiasm for tomatoes in Italy, Spain and the rest of southern Europe, they were not well received upon arrival from the New World in the sixteenth century. Looking and smelling much like their poisonous relatives in the Solanaceae family it is not surprising that few people tried to eat them. They we’re usually grown as ornamental flowers, and were only described botanically in Mattioli’s Commentaries on Dioscorides in 1544. Although wealthy diners would not eat tomatoes, it appears that their poorer neighbors had begun to eat them out of necessity. Good evidence of this cam be found in 1650 Melchior Sebizius’ On the Faculty of Foods in which he write that they are so cold and moist that they must be cooked with pepper, salt and oil, but “our cooks absolutely rejects them, even though they grow easily and copiously in gardens.””
There also other problematic foods spread around by the Phonecians during the Age of Sail than those mentioned such as refined sugar from their sugar plantations. But I wanted to share the perspective that the Phonecians have for a long time meddled with everyone’s food supply for a long time. Just as I believe someone here commented on Joseph in the bible collecting grains before the long famine in Egypt and him then later making huge profits on those suffering. In recent times the Phoenicians just seem to have heavily accelerated the decline of everyone’s health with things like their highly toxic chemicals such as glyphosate sprayed on non-organic foods.

‘As part of their commercial enterprises the Templars formed an institution many regard as the origins of modern banking. With Templar preceptories all across Europe they created a facility where it was possible to deposit money in one preceptory in return for a letter of receipt. This letter could be produced in any other preceptory where the money would be reimbursed. In the world of Medieval Europe where travel was dangerous this was very attractive to the rich. This early banking system soon grew to enormous proportions with 4000 Templars working in the Paris preceptory which was their main financial centre. As their wealth increased they began to loan money to monarchs all across Europe something that would lead to their downfall.’

My Missouri perennial sunflower forest is 4′ shorter under the power lines this year than those growing 10′ away after full 2021 5G deployment. Suspect that the power lines are entraining 5G. Usually some 15′ tall, the power line strip of sunflowers usually touch the phone / power lines. But in 2021 they are stubby, shrinking away, and the whole crop bloomed 2 weeks late (August 15) even after good rain support. Lerchl THAT. Grand to see Science win over The Science. Thanks for the heads-up on Lerchl. Mega-backfire as the Lerchl kerfuffle turned scrap turned lawsuit trajectory only brought increased scrutiny and verification that Radio Frequency / RF waves pester the electro-static bond linking the DNA helix.

“You’re Nuts Because of Your Guts” is an overview of gut-induced dysphoria I posted on Curezone.com a while back so I was shocked to see a reference to the gut enzyme SECRETIN as reversing Autism Spectrum Disorder on Episode 22 of the old program IT’S A MIRACLE minute 20:00. The SECRETIN was given to an autistic child having an endoscopy as a challenge enzyme to gauge the metabolic response, not treat anything. Like the docu-drama “Lorenzo’s Oil” it is the parents who hashed out why their child showed marked improvement with a simple treatment. Make this known. Thanks.

Am Hilda Clark-friendly as I infested myself fishing. Had chronic nausea and diarrhea until I drank Black Walnut Hull tea. Had nausea when eating meat and dairy. Meat and dairy not fully cooked can pass a Lerchl-like pest called FASCIOLOPSIS that causes nausea the next morning. I chewed cloves for a quick fix the first time in blessed revelation of what I later found Hulda Clark had already stated in her CURE FOR ALL CANCER book. Use cloves regularly to knock back FASCIOLOPSIS that I now believe infests many meat and dairy packaging plants. First got the mystery bug fishing downstream from Mt. Washington, an active cemetery. Dam dum. Clark was a technically gifted researcher like Royal Raymond Rife.

Vitamin A is from animal sources is not toxic. Vitamin A from plants and all added vitamin A in fortified foods is toxic. Please make this distinction, i do not see it clearly mentioned in this discussion.

Ofcourse I made it clear when I said animals store vitA from plant sources in the first place. If you believe plant sources are toxic, then it makes sense to believe the animals who ingest the plants routinely also store some of the toxicity, no? It’s not like animals manufacture their own vitA.
Animal sources are just as toxic. Plant source is beta carotene, which gets cleaved into 2 vitA molecules by an enzyme in the duodenum. There you go, then it gets stored in fat BECAUSE it is toxic. The liver also manufactures proteins, called Retinol Binding Proteins for the safe transfer of this molecule. The body does not differentiate what source you happened to ingest vitA from.
“https://nutritionrestored.com/blog-forum/topic/your-body-takes-food-carotenoids-and-turns-them-into-accutane-aka-isotretinoin-aka-13-cis-retinoic-acid/”
ALL sources of retinoids ultimately get turned into retinoic acid, which is the most toxic form, and which cannot be stored. You keep saying animal sources are different. You fail to mention WHAT exactly is it that differentiates them. You fail to specify WHAT exactly makes them safe in your opinion, Daniel.
The liver especially has always been an unhealthy food.
“https://nutritionrestored.com/blog-forum/topic/case-study-liver-cirrhosis-from-eating-beef-liver/”
Finally, please refer to Genereauxs book, Poisoning for Profits page 94, where he analyses the fraudulent experiment which established retinol as a vitamin. There, autoimmunity and tissue degeneration is induced in dogs fed on an unnatural diet of LARD, among other things. Besides humans, only pigs are known to store retinol in adipose tissue. This is a pretty clear indication that animal sources of vitA causes the same problems as plant sources. It is a toxin.
Now, since protein depletes vitA from the liver, and you eat lots of meat, you should be fine for a while, but the dosages you are getting from eating liver, especially raw or fermented, is way too high and will catch up with you one way or the other, unfortunately.

Retinol is in breast milk and infants need it. Or is it not in breastmilk? Or do infants not need it? i have never heard otherwise. / pba that EVERY nutrient in breastmilk is essential for the infant.

That’s almost beside the point, Daniel. We were discussing hypervitaminosis, all I’m saying is that its way easier to go over the limit than you imagine, and acquire “autoimmunity.” But you must know that the vitA is in almost every foodstuff, and its presence is only ever increasing. I’ve even read that orange carrots were bred way later in history, not to mention the promotion of liver and liver oil as health food when there’s no evidence of it. So its entirely possible to explain the presence of vitA in breastmilk, as you said, we are what we eat. You increase the concentration of vitA in the diet, and it comes up in the body ofcourse, and as it’s fat soluble, its presence thereof in breastmilk is no surprise.
The ever increasing promotion of and “fortification” with vitA is also a clear indication of planned poisoning. Autoimmunity is a cash cow, especially when the patients have no idea what they even are suffering from. Just like the bogus science Miles always tears apart, no cause is ever given for autoimmunity, we are supposed to believe the body is attacking itself just because some bums in “authority” said so.
I don’t claim to know everything regarding retinol, my only intention was to warn you because I’m still suffering from the symptoms. Pesticides also play an important part. If the liver was functioning perfectly, then ofcourse all of the vitA obtained in the normal course of a day could be expelled via bile easily. Pesticides destroy the function of the liver and other detox pathways. This causes vitA to build up rapidly, also because of (purposeful) bad diet advice given by the “gurus”, to consume more and more retinol. This lands the person in years or decades of misery via “autoimmunity”, which is very good news for the evil hospitals. They can profit endlessly from it, just like they do with corona and the vaccines. VitA poisoning is atleast a real pandemic.
The body does use retinol in some small ways, but it was noted by Grant or Smith that the same function could be fulfilled by thousands of other molecules. I don’t remember exactly why, how or for what it is used, though.
Anyway, just some free advice, take care :). Wouldn’t want any of the nice folks here to get sick is all.

i am holistic and you do not throw out the baby with the bathwater. So saying vitamin A is toxic, and then you have people avoiding ALL vitamin A sources is ridicuklaus. We only have to look at nature and our natural diet; after real men kill their prey and slice it open, they drink some of its blood and the liver is a prize, they all eat some it first, or if there are pregnant women they get more of the liver. They also eat the fat of the animal, the fat is most important. If you get the proper fat you are golden, there is no toxicity and no danger. I also want people to be healthy, that is why i advocate our natural diet as apex predators: raw animal foods. / ps and you can eat a carrot if you want, it is poison but you can eat 1 carrot on occasion if you like… it won’t kill you… on the spot…..live a little 🙂

If i’m not mistaken the retinol is used by certain cells, like hydrogen peroxide is, to fight off infections.

So two studies came up in the main forum concerning Curcumin.
tumeric induced liver injury: https://www.hindawi.com/journals/crihep/2019/6741213/
take tumeric with a grain of salt: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6205834/
The first looked at only two patients and indicated a biopsy was performed, but I cannot see if high vit a levels were indicated. Since it was vit a detox related, I’m wondering if I’m lost in the medical jargon.
Second tested only anti-inflamatory effects on patients undergoing major surgeries, and tracked inflammatory markers. They found little anti-inflammatory effect, but once again, no vit a levels are indicated, no toxicity of vit a is indicated, in fact it just didn’t work better than placebo.
How are these studies a warning that Curcumin can help lead to vit a toxicity, and/or prevent a proper detox of vit a? I guess what I’m being told is Curcumin is a precursor or somehow boosts retinolic acid in the body, so shoud be avoided by those detoxing. But niether of these studies say anything about that?? Sword of Clio, can you help me out?
How are either of these studies indicating information concerning vit a toxicity???
