One of the most well-known functions of vitamin A surrounds its role in eye health. Through its ability to increase rhodopsin production, vitamin A can improve night blindness and it is associated with a reduced risk of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. In addition, vitamin A supplementation has been found to slow down the declining retinal function in retinitis pigmentosa. Clearly, adequate vitamin A is a must in those concerned about vision support.
Vitamin A is also extremely helpful for the immune system. Not only does vitamin A act as a potent anti-viral compound, but it is crucial in maintaining the epithelial barrier. In cases of vitamin A deficiency, diminished activity of neutrophils, macrophages and natural killer cells are observed. Supplementation with vitamin A has shown significant reductions in morbidity and mortality in cases of measles, malaria and other infections.
Finally, vitamin A has great application for skin health as it helps with 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 agein
