Chicken and egg, it seems :)
Continuing pretty low-fat but no too low that I get degraded skin.
Yep :) all the things that I thought would help my liver initially caused me big stress reactions, slow and steady.
I suspect the degraded skin could be attributed to the FFA being released (increasing estrogen), also unsaturated FFA will block vitamin A and thyroid transport, which would mean that pregnenolone, progesterone and DHEA production would be reduced. I think that higher progesterone to estrogen ratio is favorable for great skin.
My experimentation is showing that depleting fat stores and PUFA are increasing quality of my skin.
Keep us posted of your success.
