Vitamin A is an essential fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in various bodily functions. It is essential for maintaining healthy vision, promoting proper immune function, and supporting the growth and development of cells and tissues. Vitamin A is obtained from two main sources: preformed vitamin A (retinoids) found in animal products such as liver and eggs, and provitamin A carotenoids found in colorful fruits and vegetables. Adequate intake of vitamin A is vital for overall health, but excessive intake can lead to toxicity and adverse effects. It is essential to strike a balance and obtain the recommended daily intake through a well-balanced diet.
