Hey @jmh,

Check out this link: https://ggenereux.blog/discussion/topic/depletion-rate/

Studies are lacking, but seems that on the standard 1st world diet, your liver stores up to two years worth of VA to protect you, depending on your body fat percentage, there will be some stored in these tissues as well(fat, lungs, brain, etc...).  This doesn't account for what, chemo, accutane and retinA would do to this rate, but I would suspect it will lengthen the time needed under zero/low VA intake.

 

Edit:  should not forget to mention, status of protein intake, zinc, copper, iron, taurine, vit K E and D probably all affect the rate.
