Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Please do alarm someone needlessly. There is no concern with taking natural vitamin A in cod liver oil or from fish oil or halibut liver oil while pregnant! It is synthetic vitamin A that can cause problems, for anyone, not only during pregnancy, but those doses would have to be 50,000 IUs per day for more than 10 months. The doses I recommend are perfectly safe. Also do a search at www.westonaprice.org for their recomendations on vitamin A doses.

I've included some links about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
