Vitamin A
From a nutrition point of view, vitamin A is not exactly a single vitamin, but more like an entire family of several vitamins, called by most nutritionists and doctors, retinoids. You’ve also heard of them because they are all part of the retinoids family.
And since we’ve finished introducing them, now we should know their importance for our bodies. First of all, vitamin A is crucial for maintaining our immune and reproductive systems in tip-top shape. Secondly, it has the main role in keeping our heart, lungs, and kidneys healthy.
Vitamin A does so much more… It’s essential for tooth and bone development, too. Ahh, and your eyes can’t do their job without this key vitamin. Sadly, almost 50 percent of Americans are vitamin A deficient. The number is outrageous, considering how many vitamin A sources are found in all farms, supermarkets, and grocery stores. Yet, that’s the sad truth.
