antioxidants? From what I understand you want to take stuff that decreases NO production, or is it a combination of that and something else?

Thanks for your post. Reminded me to reread this article:

DINITROPHENOL AND ITS RELATION TO FORMATION OF CATARACT

During the summer of 1935 there occurred a sporadic outbreak of cataracts, predominantly in young women, which could have been likened to an epidemic. It began about April, rapidly increased during the summer and fall and gradually disappeared during 1936-1937. Like an epidemic, it seemed to...

I think I only read of one person since the 2000’s dinitro/IP days of getting cataracts. It is a rare side effect, even on another board where lots of vets use dnp, nobody posted of having eye problems.

Im not saying you can’t but the information on what to take to prevent it is minimal because of the nature of it’s rarity.

Not sure if this helps - I abused DNP daily for 4 years(very complicated mental health disorder, I'm not using it anymore)

I did not develop cataracts.
