Digestion, appetite, libido, sun tolerance, muscle tension, all improved!
Quote from Dr. Garrett Smith on August 7, 2019, 11:43 pmThis is what we do. This person is doing Nutritional Restoration with me (where we use hair and blood tests to correct nutrient deficiencies / excesses / imbalances), and has added the Poison/"Vitamin A" and Glyphosate Detox Program to the process in the last 6 months. See below.
I wanted to send an update before our upcoming consultation. Since my last consult, I have greatly reduced vitamin A intake, averaging roughly 70-80 IU for the last 6 months (Feb to Aug). Despite that my VA blood tests still look horrendous, I feel much better. My average daily VA intake for last ~11 months since stopping the VA supplement is about 450 IU (cronometer).
Symptom Updates:
- My appetite and libido have normalized since our last consult.
- My tolerance and taste for wine has improved. I used to get dizziness or headaches and generally disliked the taste, but now I enjoy a glass with dinner once or twice a week with no bad effects.
- Digestion has been great! My diet is mainly rice, beans (pinto), white onion, garlic, coconut water, and 16-24 oz of beef per week. I occasionally have egg whites, gelatin, refined coconut oil, parsnip, and raisins. I can discuss more details about foods if you are interested.
- The orange color in my palms is gone. There is still a bit of a yellow tint on my feet, but it is almost unnoticeable compared to how it was before.
- I have been spending time out in the sun when possible. I am no longer as sensitive to the sun as I was last August. I can stay outside without any sunscreen for many hours and still only tan, not burn.
- It feels like my muscles are finally able to relax. The pain behind my knee/inner calf area has disappeared despite that I am back to exercising, which used to aggravate it (see 7). In general, my joints crack less.
- I have been back to powerlifting for the last two months and am able to recover despite my workouts being challenging. I am definitely not as strong as I was about 1.5 years ago, but I am getting stronger each week.
- I believe I went through intense detox cycles back in early February and March when I first drastically lowered my VA intake (below 100 IU). I got a persistent outbreak of acne on my face (despite that I always had fairly clear skin), I got sick with colds in February and March (despite that I rarely get sick), I had some stomach issues during Feb/March, and I got random and odd aches/pains and sensations in my body, one of which was in my left rib area. All of these things have cleared up aside from the occasional acne and I feel a positive difference in my body overall.
- I have been having headaches on the weekends lately, but cannot seem to find the root cause. I believe it may be related to spending time in the sun or the heat/humidity.
My comments:
These are all great improvements for 6 months of consistent, solid work.
If you or someone you know had orange/yellow feet and/or hands, then I can say with little doubt that person is toxic with Poison/"Vitamin A". We see this problem disappear with the program.
Note the description of what I call "detox cycles". These are very real, they are manageable, and people see improvements after each one has passed. We are getting a poison out of the body...it is a poison on the way IN, and it feels like the poison it is as it is coming OUT.
