Initial onset after 40 days of eating  Einkorn bread

blurred -cloudy vision, whole back pain, liver pain, inter cranial brain pressure, extreme dizziness, brain fog, extremely red eyes , inflamed sacarilitis, TMJ, whole body acidic flesh eating skin rash. Joint pain, Hair loss, very sad feeling,

I have been low vA since February, about 9 months.  I recently ran my daily food intake thru a nutrient generator.   Wholy cow I eat a lot!

it says my daily caloric intake is 4500 calories. 

When I try to cut my food intake to 1/2 of what I am eating I gained weight.

I'm sorry you are having these troubles.   I have some back issues and nerve issues.   My son tells me to try to break up tight facia with all sorts of things like rolling pin, tennis balls etc.   Not necessarily just where the pain is, but all around.   Legs, back, neck etc.   He has been to the chiropractor a lot and has learned some things.   His other ideas are that you need to stay on top of pain, like if you hurt yourself regularly you might need to find something you can take for pain.   There may be downsides to being a "hero" and you could end up worse off (he says).

One thing I notice is that posture while sitting makes a big difference for me.   Another is, I took this year off of gardening and my back is thanking me.   And when I do exert myself I rest a lot and try to relax everything between exertions.

Are there any long-lived family members that you can ask what they ate growing up?   Gosh I think it is time to get back to normal for many of us.   We get lost down blind alleys.    We all come from different backgrounds and it is nice to get back to our personal roots, diet-wise.

Supplements have always goofed me up, especially mineral supplements.

Vitamin A overload can be a very slow process that takes a lot of patience.   I don't doubt that I'll take some of what I've got stored up to the grave, but I am not on a super-low diet.   I'm moderate.

Hi, it is a first time I hear about einkorn grain. Do you think it has a connection to vit A toxicity?

That's a lot of beef! I don't think even my husband when he was carnivore ate that much beef and he is a heavy lifter! 

Steve Goeddeke has quite a bit of related and similar experience.  He also is knowledgeable.

Here is a breakdown of some grains. Notice how high in Vitamin A ,  Lutein and zeaxanthin Einkorn is.

Eyes getting red, 3 mini volcanoes on my back spewing toxic bile, fingernails broke off, feet rough, started waking at 12 am till 2 am. Booger out of nostril every morning.

Hip pain in different areas and running down to knee.

Started magnesium oil on my whole hip area and on bottom of feet.

Dec 5 knee not hurting as much but butt is very stiff in the mornings.

Trying to cut food intake down .

Dec 10 detox symptoms going away. Still rubbing on magnesium oil.

Got a bite of some spicy food, spit it out.  Then took about 1 tsp of charcoal.  Next day pooped about 7:or 8 times. (8” each). Woke up the next morning and lost part of my belly fat..

Dec 14 few new mini volcanos on back spewing toxic bile.

Dec 20, stopped taking magnesium malate and stopped rubbing on magnesium chloride. Up to this point pinformus and psoas very stiff.  Going through small detox dumps - ear wax, orange tinted poop, small volcanos on back spewing toxic bile. Red eyes,

Having deep pains in legs.

12/25 Felt really achey after eating home grown chicken, lots of bumps,on torso and ribs.

12/31/25 started water fast at night.

1-3- 26 stopped fast at 8 am.

1/4/26 liver pain in front and back in am.  Later pooped green poop

1-5-26 feeling kind of blah, lots of bumps on torso and up middle back. Feeling kind of pukey in mouth. Fingernails all breaking off.  feeling grouchy

1-7-26 felt much better today.  Lots of energy, pinformus area was painful.have 10

Ate5 spoons of bean, 1/4 pc of bread 1 pickle before bed 9 pm slept really good until 3:30 am.  Non stop feeling of snot drainage in back of throat.

1-14-26 starting to feel a little better.  Pinformus not hurting as bad, mostly hurting in morning and stretching helps.

1-18-26 started eating 2 meals a day again instead of several meals. Wondering if I need a huge dose of fiber at one time  instead of several little doses.

1-25-26. I Am feeling better eating 2 meals a day.  Still have 100’s of tiny volcano’s on my back spewing toxic bile.  The constant dripping in the back of my throat is going away.  Sometimes waking at 12 to 1 am until 3-4 am.

Having sharp pain in my lower back if I move or stretch wrong.  Pinformus pain is going away some. Have not been wearing tennis ball in back pocket.  Soaking beans in the refrigerator for 5 days cuts down on gas about 75%, on a 4day soak the gas is a lot more.  Fingernails breaking off. Bald spots in eye brows. Hair falling out more.  Pooping better, usually 3 to 4 times a day.

This has been a bad dump for the last month or so, not knowing what set it off.  Was it the onset of winter? Changing my diet from two meals to many meals a day? Stopping magnesium? (Still grossing out that the magnesium chloride I rubbed all over my self is the same stuff they use to salt roads with!  )

Rough months.  What were you eating before this episode.  What did you adjust in diet?  What are you eating now?  

LOL (not laughing at you, laughing with you?).  I'm going through a crappy time too!    I won't tell all the crap I'm going through but it is quite similar.   Seems to be related to my New Years resolutions, one of which was to eat much less often.    Triggering detox!   Detox sucks!   But that is why people do fasting time, because they really want to get well?   ie, this is what we asked for when we decided to eat less often?   maybe I'll post about my woes over at my log...

I really think this is why older people snack all the time, and their body's tell them to... because detox sucks!
