Intake Recommendations. Most women need 2,333 International Units, or 700 micrograms, of vitamin A each day, while men need 3,000 IU or 900 micrograms, according to the Linus Pauling Institute. Because vitamin A plays such an important role in a developing babyâs development, pregnant and breastfeeding mothers need more vitamin A -- 2,567 IU and 4,333 IU, respectively.
Bottom line: Vitamin D intake is recommended at 400â800 IU/day, or 10â20 micrograms. However, some studies suggest that a higher daily intake of 1000â4000 IU (25â100 micrograms) is needed to maintain optimal blood levels.
