Vitakruid Vitamin A 4000 IU Vegan
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is mainly found in animal products such as (organ) meat, fish and dairy products. Vitamin A is also called retinol, which is a derivative of retina. We therefore logically link this vitamin to our vision and that is not surprising.
Our retina contains rods and cones that convert light into images. The cones provide color during the day and the rods provide shades of gray in the evening and night. The rod cells contain a red pigment called rhodopsin.
The converted form of beta-carotene
The precursor substance of vitamin A is beta-carotene. This is mainly found in green leafy vegetables (spinach, lettuce, endive and broccoli), cabbage and vegetables and fruit with orange and yellow colours. When you consume these products, all kinds of conversion processes take place before beta-carotene becomes the active form of retinol that the body can use. As an example; After all the conversion processes, only 9-22 percent of the beta-carotene you consume ultimately remains as the active form of vitamin A.
Retinol acetate is the most absorbable form
We know vitamin A in several forms. One of the active ingredients is retinol acetate. This is a high-quality, stable and natural form of vitamin A that we also find in large quantities in the outer layer of our skin. We also regularly use the substance retinol palmitate for nutritional supplements. The difference between the two is that retinol acetate has a higher activity per milligram.
Retinol acetate has the highest activity
Retinol is the most common form of vitamin A, but not the final form that the body uses. Through a conversion process, retinol is ultimately converted into the active substance retinoic acid.
Plant-based diet requires extra vitamin A
It is extra important for vegetarians and vegans to keep an eye on vitamin A levels. And more and more people are eating less meat or have a diet that avoids animal products. It can then be difficult to achieve adequate vitamin A levels. If you follow a diet that contains little animal food, supplementation can offer a solution.
