Vitamin A

What Is It?

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for normal vision, immune system, bone health, cell functions and reproduction. It also helps the heart, lungs, kidneys and other organs work properly.

Why is it important?

Vitamin A stimulates the production and activity of white blood cells, takes part in remodeling bone, helps maintain healthy endothelial cells (those lining the body’s interior surfaces), and regulates cell growth and division such as needed for reproduction.  It is an antioxidant, which can come from animal or plant sources  but vegetarians and children may need extra Vitamin A.
