Vitamin A questions

[Guest guest]

We take Nordic Naturals CLO every day. My son and I take one tsp.

in the morning and one at night. My four year old takes 1/2 tsp.

twice a day. I want to add some vitamin A and need some guidance.

My son takes Nu Thera which has no Vit A in it so he is only getting

what he gets in the CLO.

First, my four year old drinks Neocate for her nutrition and her

beta-carotene levels are ZERO. Can you recommend a mixed carotenoid

supplement for her please?

Second, I am getting my amalgams out this week and want to load the

Vit. A into myself. I have Thorne's 25,000 IU but I see that Dr.

Weil recommends the mixed cartenoid. Which is better?

Should I take a combination of all three (CLO, Thorne's, mixed

car.) How much can I take during this time of stress on my body?

Should I up the CLO dosage? And, finally, for how long should I do

this?

My ENT gave me a loading dose protocol using the Thorn's product a

few years ago and I have forgotten it. If I remember correctly he

had me taking like 100,000 IU's first thing in the morning on an

empty stomach for several days then tapering down. Of course, the

Thornes is palmitate, which is probably not the preferred form.

Sorry for asking this question about myself here but I don't know

where else to ask and I know that someone here will be able to help

me.

Thank you for any input.
