Vitamin A Deficiency

What is Vitamin A? What Does Vitamin A Do?
Vitamin a, sometimes called retinol because it produces pigments in the eye's retina. The eye requires a specific metabolite - retinal - a light-absorbing [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich bologna[/url] substance that is critical for scotopic vision ( low-light vision ). Vitamin An is also significant for strong teeth, skeletal tissue, soft tissue, the skin, and mucous membranes.

Vitamin A comes from two main types of foods :


Retinol - a yellow, [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] fat-soluble substance. It is [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich outlet[/url] the sort of vitamin An absorbed when eating animal food sources. Sources include cod liver oil, butter, margarine, liver, eggs, cheese and milk.


Carotenes - like alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, gamma-carotene, and xanthophyl beta- cryptoxanthin. Carotene is an orange photosynthetic pigment vital for plant photosynthesis. The orange colours of carrots, sweet potatoes and cantaloupe melons come from its carotene content. Lower carotene concentrations are what give the yellowish coloration to butter and milk-fat. Some omnivores have yellow-colored subcutaneous fat, [url=http://www.achbanker.com/home.php]hollister[/url] such as chickens and humans.
