Exercise stirs things up for sure, but not always for the bad. I found that light exercise (and fresh air) helped with the hangover-type low-grade headaches that I was experiencing more often in the first year than lately. (so nice to have a happy head! yay!)
So important to work up to fitness very slowly. So easy to let fitness slip each winter! (right now!)
I recently did some sit-ups and that was a mistake. A fitness guy in my neighborhood said they aren't really recommended any more.

Interesting @tim-2, I'm glad you and @JAJ are thinking about the science of it all.
I feel like I'm releasing a steady amount of VA daily. Although I don't get headaches, I sure do feel like it's a real challenge each day for my body to get this done. (here at about 20 months)
@naveen, Regarding the never-ending detox, I think the time needed will be different for everyone, but for myself, I think I've been VA toxic for over 40 years. I had my first migraine in 7th grade. I'm sure it will take me longer than someone who only became toxic in the last couple of years. I also find that some more recent problems clear up faster than many long-standing problems.
I suppose I'm a good example to show that VA isn't necessarily going to kill you, it may only make you very uncomfortable.

I was going to reply to the errors in some of what Tim said but I’ve changed my mind. I don’t like the negative exchange which it inevitably becomes. It disturbs my peace. ✌🏻
I will just point out I was talking about ALDH not ADH. They are completely different enzyme sets.

@are I doing walking and running together and throw in some sprints. I wonder if more walking than running would be better for you for now, and sprinkle in a few short jogs with the walking?

Smith discusses ADH and ALDH together so I just mentioned ADH and RDH, I wasn't directly responding to your ALDH comment @jaj but I've updated my post to accommodate your concern.
The ADH/RDH discussion was more of a sidenote to my post as well, the main point was that dehydrogenase activity is not a limiting factor in vA depletion and that less activity is probably more favourable than more.
With regard to negative exchanges, my only recollection is of explaining my point of view of how carotenoids contribute to vA toxicity and you shouting through your keyboard at me that I'm wrong without providing any rebuttal.

Tim - That sort of unfriendly comment is just my point.
Dr Smith does not put ADH & ALDH together. ALDH is a special concern (but certainly not for everyone). I don’t know how you can comment on Dr Smith’s work when you don’t follow him. You make some incorrect statements about it which i think is misleading to others.
There are very few people doing the detox and researching vitamin A toxicity. We all need to support each other in this sometimes difficult path.

@jaj No it was a fair response to this toxic comment you made about my post. I hadn't attacked you in any way, I had just respectfully presented my view.
I've read his forum, I've watched a lot of his YT and I've listened to podcasts like this one:
https://quaxpodcast.com/2020/07/ep-63-interview-dr-garrett-smith-vitamin-a-is-still-a-poison-and-other-discoveries/
22.15 he discusses the "dehydrogenase system" ... and does so in many other places as well
So you're incorrect about him not discussing them together but I'm not sure why you want to argue about this, it's creating arguments out of nowhere, as I said the ADH/RDH discussion wasn't even the main point of my post.

I strongly agree however you say this but at the very first opportunity you make disparaging comments to my well researched and well thought out contribution without healthy discussion which is what forums are for. So you're supporting others selectively.
It's important to support others but it's even more important to be constructively critical since there is so much misinformation in this sphere of knowledge and it's an ethical obligation that we continually seek to refine our knowledge so that we are not contributing to the plethora of misinformation that rather than help others contributes to a lack of healing.

Online discussions are so hard because you can't always feel the intent of someone's comment, or they way they are offering it.
I know in the past I've had so much trouble with it. I have a hard enough time with people in real life LOL. In other words I tend to piss people off LOL. Without meaning too.
Sometimes I even look back at my own online comments and see how they might appear crankier than I meant them too. I try to apologize when I do see this. Writing is harrrrd.
