Vitamin A, long recognized as one of the primary fat-soluble vitamins necessary for human health, is actually a group of compounds known collectively as retinoids. The physiological role of these retinoids has been shown to be broad, ranging from embryonic development to adult growth and development. One of the most well-known functions of vitamin A is its role in eye health. Through its ability to increase rhodopsin production, vitamin A can improve night blindness and is associated with a reduced risk of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Additionally, vitamin A supplementation has been shown to slow the decline of retinal function in retinitis pigmentosa. Clearly, adequate vitamin A is essential for those interested in vision support. Vitamin A is also extremely useful for the immune system. Not only does vitamin A act as a potent antiviral compound, but it is essential for maintaining the epithelial barrier. When vitamin A is deficient, there is a decrease in the activity of neutrophils, macrophages, and natural killer cells. Vitamin A supplementation has shown significant reductions in morbidity and mortality in cases of measles, malaria, and other infections. Finally, vitamin A has a great application for skin health, helping to combat eczema, psoriasis, and acne vulgaris. Vitamin A has been used topically and orally for various dermatological conditions, capable of improving wound healing and reducing fine lines and wrinkles associated with UV exposure and aging. Cyto-A Liquid offers 10,000 IU of stable and active all-trans retinyl palmitate per liquid drop. This active vitamin A is provided unflavored in a medium-chain triglyceride base with 450 drops per bottle.
