1 the vitamin A content in the livers of various animals is shown. Ingestion of approximately 111 to 278 g of polar bear liver causes acute vitamin A toxicity. Chronic vitamin A toxicity is induced by 1000mg (approximately 3000 IU)/kg body weight/day. Values vary from source to source but this is the value that is commonly recognized. It is difficult to define the toxicity of excessive levels of essential nutrients because any food can cause a toxic reaction if it is ingested in excessive amounts.
However, toxicity can develop in the absence of observable color. , produce a toxin that accumulates in shellfish such as clams or mussels feeding on these algae. It appears that the toxin has no ill effects on the shellfish, but small amounts are highly toxic to humans and there is no known antidote. The toxin cannot be removed by washing and is unaffected by heat. 3 Bacterial decarboxylation of the amino acid histidine in fish. and most shellfish break down or excrete the toxin within 3 weeks after ingestion stops.
