Vitamin B

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin crucial for vision, immune system performance, and skin health. It plays a key role in maintaining the integrity of epithelial tissues, supporting cell growth, and ensuring proper functioning of organs. Vitamin A is also important for reproductive health and overall development.

Vitamin B

There are two main types of Vitamin A: preformed Vitamin A (retinol) found in animal products like liver, fish, and dairy, and provitamin A carotenoids (like beta-carotene) found in plant sources such as carrots, sweet potatoes, and leafy greens. Both forms are converted in the body to active vitamin A as needed.

Vitamin A contributes to good vision, especially in low-light conditions, supports immune defense by promoting the production of white blood cells, and helps maintain healthy skin and mucous membranes. It also plays a role in bone growth and reproductive health.

Supplementing with Vitamin A can help prevent deficiencies, especially in individuals with limited dietary intake, certain health conditions, or increased needs. Responsible supplementation ensures adequate levels without risking toxicity, which can occur with excessive intake of preformed Vitamin A.
