If I had to guess, the ingredient in the tanning gummies that I cannot tolerate is beta carotene because it produces too much Vitamin A. Last weekend, I tried low dose Glutamine and neither it nor Thym Adren was tolerated after taking the last of the gummies on Friday. Is there a way to get the Vitamin A out faster? Maybe. The antidote is Vitamin D-3. That's plain D-3 without Calcium or Magnesium.
5/4- Hated interval tests.
Opener-98
2 Thym Adren-80
Vitamin D-3 -92
Glutamine-68
Distance-0.5
Wow! How do I process this? After 36 hours off Glutamine, Thym Adren was needed again. That was expected. Though I felt worse on D, it did the job. It depleted the excess A that I suspect was the source of my recent ills and triggered the need for Glutamine. After taking that, I was a LOT BETTER.
Do I stay on the D long-term? I don't know. Even if the tanning gummies are tolerable on D, I'm still not taking them. I may be open to plain Astaxanthin down the road.
I have one off the wall theory: Accutane flooded my system with toxic doses of Vitamin A, which may never have fully cleared. Could D be the antidote? I'm willing to try it. Worst case is that it doesn't work and I endure a few horrible days.
