Huge Amounts Of Vitamin A

[j.]

There are people who need to take unusual doses of vitamin A, seemingly hard to get in a natural diet (e.g., 100,000 IU).

Do they use the vitamin A in the usual ways and generate and use huge amounts of pregnenolone, or are they wasting it at some point?

People who use that much go in the sun a lot; the radiation destroys some vit a in your skin.

I wonder if when that happens, vit A is protecting you a bit from the radiation.

I wonder if taking it through the skin would be a lot better?
