Dr. Al Sears wrote in a newsletter that “Synthetic, lab-created, vitamin A can build up to toxic levels and damage your liver. They’re sold as retinyl palmitate and they’re made by combining an ester of retinol with synthesized palmitic acid.” Is he correct that retinyl palmitate-containing supplements should be avoided?

Some vitamin A supplements on the market are plant-based forms, like beta-carotene, but most rely on retinyl palmitate, made by combining an ester of retinol with synthesized palmitic acid. Is using retinyl palmitate supplementation to obtain a healthy level of vitamin A both safe and effective, or being a synthetic substance, does it have limitations or toxicity compared to ingesting Vitamin A-rich foods?
