@Peatress Isn't pale yolk a problem, probably less beta carotene then animal feed? Are you on a vitamin A limited diet? I eliminated beta carotene a month ago but I'm maintaining vitamin A from butter and a little milk. I don't eat eggs often, 4-5 a week. Try hydrogenated water

No, I am not on a low vitamin A diet @Highserotonin90

In terms of eggs I was thinking of the pufa content.

Hydrogenated water - do I need to complicate my life even more? Will look into it.

“But simply injuring the brain or other organ (by injecting anything) will sometimes activate a series of reactions similar to those seen in aging and the amyloidoses. When a slight trauma leads to a prolonged or expanding disturbance of structure and function, the process isn’t essentially different from transmitting a condition to another individual. The problem is being “transmitted” from the initial injury, recruiting new cells, and passing the disturbed state on to daughter cells in a disturbed form of regeneration. Keloids, hypertrophic scars, are analogous to the dementias in their overgrowth of connective tissue cells: In the aging or injured brain, the glial cells (mainly astrocytes) proliferate, in reparative processes that sometimes become exaggerated and harmful.” Ray Peat
