Vitamin A Drops is a potent formula containing 1,500 mcg RAE of vitamin A per single droplet. Unlike most typical vitamin A supplements or concentrations, Vitamin A Drops is a highly-absorbable micellized liquid containing 100% preformed vitamin A as retinyl palmitate.
Vitamin A Drops contain a potent amount of vitamin A. Unlike beta-carotene, retinyl palmitate is a biologically active form that can be used directly by your body. This form also bypasses common genetic variations in the BCO1 gene, which may affect a large portion of the population.
Many vitamin A supplements contain unfavourable ingredients such as soy, rancid fish oils/fatty acids and low quality liver oils. Many contain only beta-carotene. This carotenoid requires multiple biochemical conversions before becoming the bioactive form of retinol.
Seeking Health understand the importance of a pure form vitamin A. Vitamin A Drops provide you with high-quality retinol in a micellized form that your body can efficiently absorb and utilize.
Vitamin A Drops support healthy:
- Overall immune health
- Antioxidant function
- Skin & mucous membranes
- Eye health, including tear production, and night vision
- Dental health, including normal saliva production
- Fertility (female & male)
- Normal growth and development
- Wound healing
A deficiency of this fat-soluble vitamin can occur for several reasons. You can have a variation in your BC01 gene, which converts the inactive form of vitamin A from fruits and vegetables called beta-carotene to the active form that your body can use, retinyl palmitate. This active form of vitamin A is only found in animal food sources and dairy products. For example, concentrated natural omega-3 fish oil or liver oil are great sources of retinyl palmitate.
Side effects of vitamin A deficiency can include:
- Night blindness
- Dry skin or flaky skin
- Acne
- Dry eyes
- Infertility
- Immune issues
- Poor wound healing
- Birth defects
- Fetal heart disease or abnormality
Individuals who eat a plant-based diet often exhibit lower levels of this active form of vitamin A. Bright orange fruits, like cantaloupe, and vegetables, like sweet potatoes, contain the carotenoid beta-carotene, an inactive or “pre-” vitamin form of vitamin A. Unfortunately, the conversion of this type of pre-vitamin to the actual vitamin A is not very efficient. This is why vitamin A supplements are often important for vegetarians, and particularly vegans. They are typically more prone to being below the recommended dietary allowance (RDA).
Seeking Health’s Vitamin A Drops can be taken by anyone wishing to optimize their vitamin A intake or requiring vitamin A supplementation, especially those who have trouble swallowing traditional pills or capsules.
