Vitamin A Drops

Vitamin A supplements can be confusing since supplement labels often refer to two forms: beta-carotene and retinyl palmitate.

Beta-carotene does not become true vitamin A until it is activated in the body. Not everyone’s body does this efficiently, so even if you consume a lot of beta-carotene, you could still be short on vitamin A!

Retinyl palmitate comes from animal food sources, like liver, but is also found in supplements.

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble nutrient with antioxidant qualities. It supports eye health, a healthy immune system, dental health, fetal development, breastfeeding, and general wellness.^†
