Subject: What Is Vitamin A Good For? It Turns Out a Lot of Things
Vitamin A has numerous health benefits, and is a nutrient that most people already get a sufficient amount of. Vitamin A is found in meats, eggs, seafood, fruits and vegetables. Vitamin A helps your eyesight. However, too much Vitamin A can actually cause blurred vision. Vitamin A is also known for helping your skin via retinoids. It also helps your immune system. Some studies have linked Vitamin A with a lower risk of cancer, although the science is not conclusive.
Key Takeaways:
- Many persons in the developed world need not worry about their intake of vitamin A because they already get enough from their diet.
- The World Health Organization doesn’t recommend supplementation for anyone living in countries like America because people already eat the things that contain it like eggs and meat.
- Vitamin A deficiency results in eyesight issues and this is very well demonstrated in developing countries where supplementation is being proposed.
