Vitamin A – An important micronutrient

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is particularly necessary for vision, the maintenance of the skin and mucous membranes, and the normal function of the immune system.

As a component of visual pigments, vitamin A plays an important role in vision, especially in low-light conditions.

Vitamin A in the diet

Vitamin A, mainly in the form of retinol, is found primarily in animal-based foods such as liver, fish, eggs, and dairy products.

Plant-based foods, on the other hand, contain carotenoids such as beta-carotene, which the body can convert into vitamin A when needed.

Particularly good plant-based sources are carrots, pumpkin, spinach, and other leafy green vegetables.

Daily vitamin A requirements depend on several factors, including age and sex. For adults, approximately 700–950 µg of retinol activity equivalents per day is recommended, depending on the reference value.

Vitamin A as retinyl acetate

Pure Encapsulations® Vitamin A contains retinyl acetate, a stable form of vitamin A that the body can convert into biologically active retinol.

The carefully formulated recipe is suitable for targeted supplementation of vitamin A intake.

Important information

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Important: Excessive intake of preformed vitamin A (retinol and retinyl esters) may be harmful to health. During pregnancy or when planning a pregnancy, vitamin A supplements containing retinyl acetate should only be taken after consulting a doctor, as high doses may harm the unborn child.

Particular caution is advised when taking other vitamin A-containing supplements or retinoid medications at the same time.

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of reach of young children and store in a cool, dry place.
