LMAO shit. I totally didn't understand what you were saying. I thought a supplement you had had it listed as IU/kg.

I had initially read those numbers as the daily totals, and not per kg. I was under the impression that the upper limit for VitA was low, but going by that, my upper limit would be over 300,000IU a day for 6 months. I've seen the upper limit as 10,000IU elsewhere.

Emedicine.com is usually a fairly decent place for info. Sorry about the confusion.

No problem, I'm just happy I get to keep my protein shake and tasty fish oil, yayers! I'll probably still slip in some flax seed oil on those days I'm not eating omega-3 eggs or seafood. Which is rare for me not to eat those nowadays.
