Grant genereux mental health

Hi @ggenereux2014,

I hope you're doing well.

I've noticed that you haven't mentioned any mental health updates in your yearly reports. For me, one of the first and most significant improvements after giving up on vitamin A was a noticeable boost in mental health.

I'm sure you've experienced similar benefits, yet I've seen @andrew-b's group constantly "hypothesizing" that you look depressed and generally mentally unwell. Frankly, it's absurd for them to make such claims without any basis—they aren't mind readers, and they certainly can't diagnose your subconscious. It's clear they're just connecting dots from some dubious papers they probably found on Google Scholar 😀

I urge you to share a brief update on your mental health and how it has improved. Things like:

  1. Increased confidence
  2. Reduced anxiety
  3. General happiness and well-being

It's important to set the record straight against these baseless assumptions.

I believe he said that was one thing that improved right away. And he has mentioned that he is doing great mentally in other updates.

I've always thanked Grant in my posts for showing us the benefit of reducing vitamin A and the carotenoids. I mean I recovered from decades of issues ultimately because of his experiment. I'm delighted the way things have turned out. In my 13 points I made in the Vitamin A Toxicity group on Facebook none were about depression and I would never say somebody looked mentally unwell. @ggenereux2014

Somebody did say a low total cholesterol below 150 might lead to depression but nobody as far as I can see said he looked depressed or mentally unwell. I think the poster is trying to stir up trouble. My position is I think we MIGHT need a very small amount of vitamin A like 25-50 mcgs. This is like the RDA for selenium and molybdenum. I have no way to prove it either way. I've got much better by eating 3 eggs a day. I dont even care one iota which turns out to be right. Reducing vitamin A is the MOST helpful thing I've ever done.

Interesting.  I did not gather that from your previous posts that I have read.  

How much vitamin A do you think you are getting in 3 eggs?

How long have you been 3 eggs per day?

Do you have a testimonial type of post outlining your before and after starting low vitamin A?  

What do you eat now?  

What do you supplement now?

BTW, agree.  It does smell like a pot being stirred hard.

I think the low vitamin A diet can get too low in fats. It could be that the body actually needs some fats and oils to recover. Eggs provide that plus the choline. But I refuse to eat eggs. I am trying to figure out how to add more fats. Karen Hurd isn't a fan of saturated fat because it produces free radicals, so that rules out pretty much every fat I've been eating for the last 12 yrs. I don't really like the taste of olive oil but I am testing it out.
