10 Side Effects of Fish Oil
Fish Oil Side Effect #8: Vitamin A Overdose
Some types of fish oil come with vitamin A included because the two nutrients work well together. However, it’s important to regulate your doses of fish oil if you’re taking a fish oil supplement that is high in vitamin A, like cod liver oil which contains 270% of your daily dose of vitamin A in a single dose.
Vitamin A toxicity can cause a number of problems, like dizziness, nausea, and joint pain. The dizziness can be compounded if you have low blood pressure and this can cause a number of problems.
