I hv a lean body... i hv always been lean. I used to have irritable bowel with bowel frequency of 3 per day, frequent urination, extreme muscle weakness after an o,pois lasts for 6 days, thin skin over the face. I used to get tired with brainfog after eating any tablets including antibiotics, vitamins
After starting eggs i have now gained 3 kilogram. My bowel movement hv become normal of 1 per day.No frequent urination. Only negligible physical weakness after o. But brain fog and mental tiredness still present. Pois reduced from 6 days to 2.5 days.proteins in egg have helped me very much for hair growth but it could be also due to limiting the no. Of orgasms. Now i dont get tiredness and brain fog with antibiotics, vitamins, cetrizine
Very interesting to find another person who've had cured his polyuria by eating eggs. That has always been a very visible 'marker' that I was on POIS, also easily measurable. Any researcher can see that Pois is not just an anxiety disorder by this symptom alone, how the hell could I decide how much I would urinate on a single day? With just the power of my mind?
With eggs: normal; no eggs: every 30 minutes.
But if we analyze the composition of a single large egg, it's not that remarkable:
- Protein: 6.3g
- Fat: 4.8g
- Carbohydrate: 0.6g
- Vitamin A: 82.5 micrograms (mcg)
- Vitamin D: 0.87 mcg
- Vitamin E: 0.49 mg
- Vitamin K: 0.09 mcg
- Vitamin B1 (Thiamin): 0.03 mg
- Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): 0.27 mg
- Vitamin B3 (Niacin): Approximately 0.1 mg
- Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid): 0.68 mg
- Vitamin B6: 0.06 mg
- Vitamin B7 (Biotin): 5.4 mcg
- Vitamin B9 (Folate): 24.6 mcg
- Vitamin B12: 0.56 mcg
- Choline: 126 mg
Well, I was already taking all of that through food or capsules, with the exception of ...
choline. Every 5 eggs have 630 mg of choline, that was definitely a new thing.
And if you research a bit about choline and hormonal imbalance (polyuria), you will find things like this:
Some research also suggests that acetylcholine activity has an influence on the production or secretion of various hormones throughout the body and brain.
For example, some studies have reported that acetylcholine levels are correlated with the secretion of hormones such as prolactin and growth hormone from the pituitary gland. Although the full mechanisms are not known yet, some researchers believe that a significant amount of acetylcholine’s effects on hormones may come from its ability to influence neural activity in the hypothalamus, a brain region that is widely believed to be heavily involved in hormone regulation. https://selfhacked.com/blog/acetylcholine/
This article above has lots of other relevant aspects of choline, on how it affects the guts and blood flow, por example.
And if we ponder on the recommended choline daily intake, which is the incredible high number of 550 mg for an adult male, we can understand how we can easily end up being chronically low on this nutrient for years, possibly decades. If you grew up in the 80's, 90's, and even in the early 00's you probably remember that eggs were seen as poison, I remember my mother telling me: "Only one per day, more will be bad for you." And given that the other great source of choline is, well, beef liver, which most kids (and adults) hate it, it's not that hard to understand how one could reach an adult age with a choline deficiency.
