I got blood tests done but vitamin D wasn't on it. Sorry for the miscommunication Sunlight in warm weather continues to help my situation. 30-45 mins. Building toward 1 hour a day, eventual exercise...

Hey everyone. In the last 2.5 weeks I've spent a total of 8.5 hours in direct sunlight (avg 70 degree days). I was keeping a log, but I don't see a need anymore. For the rest of this summer I will att...

I got tested about four years ago but I don't recall the number. It for sure wasn't high. I was taking ZMA around the time I was supplementing with D. I've never gotten lab tests before without going...

[Edited link out] sourced article that gives further argument for getting vitamin D from direct sunlight, not from supplementation. photosensitive people, start slow with sunbathing, b...

Go to the post by "luc_nic" This person states that they think a lot of tanning/sunlight brought back their acne and oily skin after their first accutane course. Might be related to increases ...

2 months ago I started eating a lot of raw green vegetables. I want to share that I've been experiencing ups and downs since I started this, but that overall there have been some very noticeable impro...

Stay away from supplements. I been there, tried it, really no lasting success. Nutrients are more effectively absorbed at the "lower doses" coming from a balanced diet. If you want copper eat kale and...

Taned out - folic acid isn't "produced" from intestinal bacteria. nutrient absorption might be slightly affected by gut flora, but I don't see that being anywhere near a main cause of Accutane side ef...

If you think about it, for whatever period of time we were each on accutane, we were completely bypassing the bodys natural mechanism to block retinoic acid overdose. In trying to make up for this I s...

Retinol, the vitamin A that comes from animal products, comes in storage form and once consumed will go to the liver until it is ready for conversion to retinoic acid. Retinoic acid is the hormonally ...

Dunno if anyone has seen this, but this doctor faced a ton of harrassment from Hoffman La-Roche for his research into accutane. He references how it decreases brain functioning. This is part of the ...

I've supplemented with copper at one point, as well as with zinc. If there is deficiency these are just one of many downstream problems. However if supplementing helps people with their symptoms, then...

Testing low in hormones or nutrients, such as copper, does not necessarily mean the body needs more of them. If you consider that Retinoic Acid, as a chemotherapeutic agent, leads to large scale cell ...

Ruvik - I think it would take more than one or two patients going to a doctor saying there is a problem. If somehow we could collaborate getting enough accutane victims to the right doctor, in person,...
