Vitamin A is a powerhouse nutrient with a range of benefits for your body:
- Cancer Prevention: Vitamin A's antioxidant properties help neutralize free radicals, which can damage cells and potentially lead to cancer. It also supports immune function, which plays a role in cancer prevention.
- Collagen Production: While Vitamin A itself doesn't directly produce collagen, it aids in skin health and repair, which can indirectly support collagen maintenance.
- Eyesight: Essential for vision, Vitamin A helps maintain the retina and prevents night blindness. It also supports overall eye health and may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration.
- Sinus and Respiratory Health: By maintaining the health of epithelial tissues (which line your respiratory tract), Vitamin A can help protect against infections and inflammation.
- Asthma Management: Vitamin A supports lung health and immune function, which may help reduce asthma symptoms and improve respiratory health.
