6. Vitamin A
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is essential for healthy vision, skin, and immune function. This vitamin can be found in animal-based foods, such as liver and dairy products, as well as in plant-based foods like sweet potatoes and spinach.
Vitamin A plays a critical role in maintaining healthy vision, particularly in low light conditions. This vitamin also plays a role in promoting healthy skin and mucous membranes, as well as supporting your immune system.
When selecting a vitamin A supplement, look for a product that contains beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A that is converted to vitamin A in your body as needed. It is important to note that vitamin A supplements can interact with certain medications, such as retinoids used to treat acne and psoriasis. Always talk to your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen. (7)
