The past few weeks I've been consuming around 400 to 450% of the daily value of Vitamin A.

One thing I do know is 3,000mg is the limit set by the Food and Nutrition Board.

The thing that I can't find online is what 3,000mg equals in daily value percentage.

Does anyone know what the daily value percentage is for 3,000mg of Vitamin A?
 
RDA for Vitamin A from eHow.com:

Infants: 500 mcg
Age 1 to 3: 300 mcg
Age 4 to 8: 400 mcg
Age 9 to 13: 600 mcg
Age 14 to Adult, Male: 900 mcg
Age 14 to Adult, Female: 700 mcg
Breastfeeding Mothers: 1,300 mcg

So, using this amount, we take (3000/900)*100= 333% of RDA. May I ask why you are taking such a high dosage of vitamin A?
