I unknowingly overdosed on vitamin A. I ate a lb. of beef liver a week for B vitamins. I took a Vit A supplement of 25,000 I.U. daily to help my immune system rebuild. It was after a year of this regimen that I realized my mistake -- liver is also a significant source of Vit. A.

I had been getting mild headaches for about a week when I realized what was happening. I immediately stopped liver and supplements and the headaches ended within days.

Do I need to be concerned and do I need to take remedial action of any kind?
