Abstract
Animal, human, and in vitro data all indicate that excess vitamin A stimulates bone resorption and inhibits bone formation. This combination would be expected to produce bone loss and to contribute to osteoporosis development and may occur with relatively low vitamin A intake. It is possible that unappreciated hypervitaminosis A contributes to osteoporosis pathogenesis.
