These are not bozo questions, but I think you would be giving her much more

beta-carotene than she needs. Since Beta-carotene is not converted to Vit.

A, you would have to give 54 capsules to get the 400,000iu of A needed.

(That is a LOT of caps for a kid - or anyone!) I would suggest giving just

Vitamin A. Klaire's has 5000iu of A per drop, with only 25iu of

Beta-carotene (negligible); the fish oil from Thorne or VRP is only Vitamin

A (no beta-carotene). Unless she fits all the other criteria (reaction and

regression following the MMR, obvious gut problems, MBP antibody elevation

(indication of autoimmune injury), high IgG serum and high IgA salivary

rubeola antibodies, etc. why don't you wait until we get the testing back,

particularly since you will soon have the immune tests even before the

salivary test result. Jaquelyn

I give her? (400,000 IU or 26 capsules in a day for 2 days?)
