Toward a Theory of Childhood Learning Disorders, Hyperactivity, and Aggression

https://www.hindawi.com/journals/isrn/2012/589792/
"The hypothesis of behavioral inhibition by sensory feedback suggests that the effectiveness of active and passive forms of stimulation for treating learning disability associated with hyperactivity and aggression (e.g., physical exercise, sensory integration interventions, therapeutic massage, chiropractic methods, and acupuncture) may be mediated in part by reducing circulating retinoid and/or increasing nitric oxide concentrations. Consistent with the model, physical exercise is reported to lower circulating retinoid concentrations. One study involved 29 exercise sessions performed over a 7-week period by six healthy male subjects, each session consisting of jogging on a treadmill for 30 minutes. Subjects averaged 15.2 miles/week. A vitamin A fat-loading test was used specifically to label and follow postprandial lipoprotein levels using retinyl ester concentrations. The exercise conditioning program led to a significant 37% decrease in chylomicron retinyl palmitate levels [192]. In a more recent study, 29 healthy women performed 60 minutes of aerobic exercise three times weekly for 10 weeks at about 70% maximal exercise capacity. After the 10-week training program, insulin sensitivity was improved, and serum levels of RBP were significantly decreased [193]. It is not yet known if passive forms of stimulation such as acupuncture or massage affect retinoid and/or nitric oxide metabolism."

The following excerpts are from earlier in the same article.  Read this, then go look at the neurotoxicity of Poison/"Vitamin A" thread again...then compare the two and you'll see that the patterns of mental issues are similar.

"Learning disorders are often associated with persistent hyperactivity and aggression and are part of a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders. A potential clue to understanding these linked phenomena is that physical exercise and passive forms of stimulation are calming, enhance cognitive functions and learning, and are recommended as complementary treatments for these problems. The theory is proposed that hyperactivity and aggression are intense stimulation-seeking behaviors (SSBs) driven by increased brain retinergic activity [retinergic means Poison/"Vitamin A" driven], and the stimulation thus obtained activates opposing nitrergic systems which inhibit retinergic activity, induce a state of calm, and enhance cognition and learning. In persons with cognitive deficits and associated behavioral disorders, the retinergic system may be chronically overactivated and the nitrergic system chronically underactivated due to environmental exposures occurring pre- and/or postnatally that affect retinoid metabolism or expression.

Aerobic exercise similarly reduces anxiety, depression, hostility, hunger, drug-seeking behavior, heart rate, and blood pressure [34]; massage reduces hyperactivity and aggression [34], acupuncture can reduce drug use [35, 36], and electrical stimulation of low frequency and intensity, applied via needles to the conchal area of the ears (“auricular electroacupuncture”) alleviates narcotic withdrawal symptoms in human addicts [37]. Combat troops provided with opportunities for physical activity, such as search-and-destroy missions, are less likely to become psychiatric casualties than those without such opportunities, such as soldiers holed up in trenches or manning solitary observation posts. Physical action has always been considered an effective way to reduce fear [38].

These observations show that a given stressor can elicit diverse behavioral responses, while different types of stimuli can have an overall calming effect, suggesting a common denominator both in the behavioral responses to stress and the conditions that modulate it and restore a state of calm. [Poison/"Vitamin A" is now a distinct common candidate] The latter conditions include, among others, the proximity of loved ones, physical exercise, rocking, massage, and electrical stimulation.

As noted, active and passive forms of sensory stimulation can induce and maintain a state of calm in conditions of acute stress. Similarly, applied forms of sensory stimulation (“environmental enrichment”) have been shown to be useful in the treatment of children with ADHD [76] and other neurodevelopmental disorders. For instance, aerobic exercise enhances overall wellbeing and self-concept [77], improves mood in incarcerated adolescents [78], and improves cognitive functions in adults with neurological disorders [79]. Exercise programs requiring prolonged and sustained exercise at a moderate level of physical exertion produce the greatest improvements in health outcomes for older adults [80]. A systematic review of the literature involving observational and interventional studies revealed a significant positive relationship over time between participation in physical activities and academic performance in children [81]. Other recent reviews have concluded that physical exercise has profound effects on brain function, leading to improved learning and memory [82], overall cognitive skills and performance in children with learning disorders [20, 83].

A recent study on the effects of a moderate- to high-intensity physical activity program showed that fitness level and motor skills, assessed by standardized tests, as well as behavior reports by parents and teachers, and level of information processing were all improved in children with ADHD after a 10-week training compared to a control period [84]. In a study to determine the effect of acute aerobic exercise on executive function, 40 children with ADHD were randomly assigned into exercise or control groups. Participants in the former group performed a moderate intensity aerobic exercise for 30 minutes whereas the control group watched a video. Neuropsychological tasks, the Stroop Test and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), assessed before and after each treatment, showed that acute exercise facilitated performance in the Stroop Test and improved specific WCST performances, whereas no change was seen in the control group [85].

Similarities have been noted between animal models of enriched environments and sensory integration therapy for children with neurodevelopmental disorders. It has been suggested that the essential features of the enriched environment paradigm are multiple sensory experiences, environmental novelty, and active engagement in challenging cognitive, sensory, and motor tasks [86].

The impact of regular physical exercise training on the rate of learning and blood flow to the cerebral cortex was studied in adult female cynomolgus monkeys. The training program was comparable to levels recommended for middle-aged adults and involved running on treadmills for 1 hour a day, 5 days a week for 5 months. The exercising monkeys were compared to a control group of sedentary animals and were tested for cognitive functioning using the Wisconsin General Testing Apparatus. After 5 weeks of exercise training the experimental monkeys were significantly faster than controls at mastering the cognitive skills test and had a higher level of fitness as well as a significantly increased level of vascularity in the motor cortex [87]."

In summary:
Exercise/movement is good for us = exercise/movement improves nearly all aspects of bloodwork in general = exercise lowers Poison/"Vitamin A" = ergo, Poison/"Vitamin A" is bad for us and our body wants to get rid of it.

Figure out what you like to do for exercise/movement and go DO IT.
