i had a blood test a month ago that was very good (maybe more than a month? but not by much)

i don’t know if they tested for A. My D was a little high so i cut down on supplements

but my eyesight is going to hell (not blind, just not as good vision. could be age related)

don’t know if i should start up taking A again but that probably wont work for certain kinds of issues, i assume

i have no clue :)

Do you take an eye support vitamin or get enough nutrients like lutein?
It’s not macular degeneration?

Glad to hear about your blood test, but sorry about your vision.

I’m far from qualified to give medical advice, but it does seem that, given the (as yet uncompromised) capabilities of modern medicine, at least in the eyesight area, they should be able to at least tell you what’s wrong.

I will say that, based on Nina’s work, being low carb should not affect anything health-related, as long as you’re getting sufficient fat (i.e., using butter, not using lean cuts, or at least not cutting away fat, and, ideally having cheese and nuts).

Hopefully you are able to get to the bottom of it.
