Hypervitaminosis A

Abstract

Since vitamin A is essential for life, it has been added to most of the convenience foods in developed countries. Just as the harmful effects of vitamin A deficiency are known and necessary steps are taken with food and medicine supplements to eliminate this deficiency, so the presence of toxicity, as well as health and well-being, should be monitored in individuals exposed to high doses of vitamin A. Furthermore, the distribution and storage of vitamin A should be examined and genetic studies should be performed to determine individual tolerances in the face of increased hypervitaminosis A problem.
