Re: Vitamin A IMPORTANT for synthesis of adrenal and thyroid hormones

I'm new to adrenal fatigue, but have a retinal disease that has meant years on vitamin a. The best form is retinyl palmitate if your body has difficulties with conversion and uptake. It is more readily bio-available. On the other hand, it is also the supplement associated with toxicity levels over 10000 iu daily.

Ive been told to take much more than the highest recommended doses because my body cannot absorb it properly. However, for most people. I would stick to 5000 iu palminate and get additional vit A from carotene or dietary sources. Completely unprofessional advice though. BTW. Retinyl palminate is found in liver, eggs, whole milk, fortified cereals, and butter to name a few Tweet
