How much vitamin A, in a day, is considered toxic?
I heard that Vitamin A toxicity can occur at doses of 15000 IU in a day? Just curious, how many percent of the recommended daily intake is that? An 8 ounce glass of carrot juice contains about 630% of the recommended daily intake, is this over 15000 IU? Is there an equation to convert IU to the percentage? What is IU in general?
Thanks for your time!
The recommended daily intake of Vitamin A is 3000IU for men and 2333IU for women. A safe limit for most people is 10000IU to 25000IU per day, depending on which research you use. The Vitamin A upper limit for those over 65 and with liver problems is 10000-15000IU/day.
Keep in mind that the RDA (recommended daily allowance) is usually the absolute minimum suggested for proper nutrition, so exceeding the RDAs a little is not usually a risk. Check with a medical professional before taking action.
The 630% should not be a concern. Much of the Vitamin A in carrots comes from beta carotene, which the body converts into Vita A as needed. Getting your Vita A from beta carotene is a good way to avoid getting "too much" vitamin A, since your body will only convert what it needs in to Vita A.
If you’re taking Vitamin A supplements and medication, there is a chance that they may reduce the effectiveness of each other. You check here for a list of medications and Vitamin A: http://www.cncahealth.com/health-notes.htm?org=cnca&ContentID=3250005
I hope that helps!
8Ball & MJG *Life Goes On (ft. Slim Thug) * NEW *
8Ball & MJG
The Memphis rap duo 8Ball & MJG does not consider its forthcoming album “Ten Toes Down” to be a new beginning, even though it’s the pair’s first for T.I.’s Grand Hustle label. “It really just feels like another chapter in the book of 8Ball & MJG,” 8Ball (ne Premro Smith) tells Billboard.com.
8Ball says he and MJG (Marlon Jermaine Goodwin) “just wanted to give (the album) a lot of wildness, a lot of truth about how we’ve been feeling about certain things these last three years” since the release of 2007’s “Ridin’ High,” “and keep it crunk. That was the whole premise behind everything.” The duo recorded in Memphis and Atlanta, where its Push Management is based, and worked with producers such as Drumma Boy, David Banner, Mo B. Dick, Nard & B and Frank Nitti of Nitti Beats.

hope you enjoy it =)How do you reverse vitamin a toxicity in a bearded dragon?
My beardy has been very lethargic since we started using vitamins and after some research we find he may have to much vitamin a. How do I reverse those effects?
Hmmm, How often have you given it to him? Beardies do need vitamin supplement also if the beardie is young it is more important. Calcium is a must every feeding, vitamins reduce the amount you give him to two times a week. also make sure you are using a uvb bulb with a rating of 10.0 or higher. not much to do if the damage is already done tho.

When should I drink my amino acid vitamin capsule? Is it before or after work out?
I work on a night shift so I usually work out during the day after my shift, I’m thinking that this is just a supplement vitamin and not actually a vitamin for gym buffs. I just told my doctor that Im working out and I asked for a vitamin and he gave me that.
Help!
Thanks!
After the workout. The body is more predisposed to use amino acids for protein synthesis within the first hour after the workout. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein.
Here is some more info about protein and amino acids:

What vitamin deficiencies can cause the tongue to move independently?
The tongue starts to feel swollen and almost loose in the mouth, and seems to move around a bit.
It happens every once in a while, seems to happen when eating, but it’s not always the same foods that cause it.
Not on any medication. Is it possible there is a vitamin deficiency, or a severe imbalance of vitamins such as too much calcium, too little magnesium?
I would say that it would be caused by the nerve supply of the tongue, the XII Cranial nerve. Now as far as lacking anything, any lack would show up in some other area also being that you describe a nervous movement and a ‘feeling.’ Do you have any kind of discomfort in the neck? Any discomfort in the interior midline just below the ribcage? The food you eat and the nutrition from it are sent to the head area from the blood vessels that surround the large intestine from that point. You could do an iridology self-exam to see if there is some hereditary issue. Shine a light in your iris and using the chart below, look in the 10:30 and the 3:30 areas on the left eye and 2:30 and 9:30 on the right eye for any ‘mutations.’ To protect enervation, I like to use B-12 vitamins, but since you are speaking of movement, there is the point of relaxation and for that I use Magnesium.
How much vitamin K is stored in the liver? How long would it last me if I ate a vitamin K deficient diet?
Vitamin K is fat soluble, and is stored in the liver and adipose tissue. If I were to get no vitamin K in my diet, how long would the vitamin K in my liver last before it runs out?
Actually, vitamin K is synthesized in the colon by bacterial action. So your diet has little to do with it, unless you were on broad spectrum antibiotics that killed the intestinal flora. Then it would take about 1 – 2 weeks.
