Yeah, like @mmb3664 said, stay AWAY from the fish oil supplements due to oxidation and excess PUFAs.  Eat freshly caught fish if you think you need more of what they have.  Any organic substance that has been extracted and isolated from its original form is prone to oxidation, and the longer it's in storage, the more oxidation occurs.  Those most prone to oxidation include the PUFAs from fish and seed oils, and to a slightly lesser extent the monounsaturated fats from fruit like olives and avocados.  The most stable fats are those from ruminant animals and maybe coconut oil.

I've had tons of GI problems during my Vitamin A "cleanse".  The worst has been diarrhea, which often burned and came with terrible abdominal cramping.  The worst diarrhea usually had either bold orange or bright yellow coloration.  I'm still not sure if it was due to Vitamin A itself aggravating the colon, or a combination of Vitamin A and bile acids that were getting flushed into the colon, but considering that I was eating a high fat diet without the same problem before I removed Vitamin A, I am leaning towards Vitamin A being the primary aggravant.

I've also had a lot of gas and bloating, along with the motility problems I previously described (inability to pass gas in the middle of the night).  I seem to be digesting and absorbing my food just fine.  The gas has to be coming from a bacterial source.  I've deduced it is partially a nervous system issue due to Vitamin A coming out of storage, causing motility problems that encourage bacterial fermentation of harder-to-digest food, as well as bacterial consumption of intestinal mucus, glucuronides, and maybe components of bile salts (taurine, glycine, and possibly the bile acids themselves).

Fat should be the one thing that DOESN'T cause gas via bacterial fermentation, yet fat consumption seems to cause gas in myself, and I've seen others mention that they get gassier when they increase their fat intake.  That's got to either be a result of increased Vitamin A conjugates getting broken down by bacteria, or more bile salts being broken down by bacteria, or more mucus in the intestines being consumed by bacteria.

The information was great !!thanks

  • @hrishikesh did you take Accutane/ isotretinoin? Do you use insta or any other platform?

Yes,prateek I had multivitamins two times a day for 1 year😢 I wasn't really guided about it...bcz of bullshit YouTubers I got my life fucked....you can get my insta user id : _hrishi_96 

I agree with Tim. I was also coming to the conclusion that mushrooms seemed a big help. I thought it was the B5. But Tim mentioning the beta glucans also reminded me I do well on oats as well at times so it could be the beta glucans. Yes, do a balanced diet and eliminate the highest sources or keep to a small amount like dairy. Eggs I'm not sure I would worry about having 1-2 a day. Very small amount of Vitamin A very much compensated by protein, selenium, iodine, B vitamins and choline in them.
