High storage levels of vitamin A (from animal sources or supplements) can lead to problems with the liver, nervous system, bones and to birth defects, however, It is impossible to get excess provitamin-A (from plants). A high intake of provitamin-A can turn the skin yellow, but it is not dangerous as the body converts the necessary provitamin-A into a usable form.
Consuming too much vitamin A can result in symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, headaches, and in severe cases, liver damage. Long-term excessive intake can lead to the build-up of toxic levels of vitamin A in the body, causing serious health problems. It's important to avoid exceeding the recommended daily intake of vitamin A to prevent these potential side effects.
Vitamin A overdose can lead to several symptoms:
- Yellow or orange skin
- Bone loss, weak or brittle bones (prolonged overdose can lead to osteoporosis)
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Dizziness
- Blurred vision
- Upset stomach
- Exhaustion
- Irritability
- Dry skin
- Hair loss
- Liver damage
- Birth defects in pregnant women
In order to overdose, you would need to consume more than double your recommended daily intake (over 1400 to 2400 micrograms).

There has never been a case of vitamin D toxicity from the sun.
