Vitamin A question - Andy, anyone

[Guest guest]

My son has been off of Vitamin A for a couple of months and I would

like to restart it, this time using a loading dose first. What would

the loading dose for a 50 lb child be? Also, I want to use the drops

this time - what is a good brand Is there a concern about mercury

with the drops being from fish oil?

Thanks for the help;

Life Extension Foundation or Biotics are both fine.

If you give the " loading dose " in fish oil - there is a concern of giving too

much vitamin D.
