Vitamin A

Did you know that most Americans do not obtain adequate levels of Vitamin A? 

One of the classic signs of Vitamin A deficiency is night blindness, characterized by difficulty seeing in the dark or being blinded after exposure to a glaring light. Most serious eye diseases, including cataract, macular degeneration, and glaucoma, are associated with night blindness.

Vitamin A enhances the resistance to infection and so much more. Researchers have established the benefits of Vitamin A in protection against some types of cancers including ovarian and breast cancer. In one recent study, Vitamin A protected against radiation and estrogen induced breast cancers.

Vitamin A promotes normal differentiation of cells, whereas cancer cells are undifferentiated. Vitamin A has even been described as the anti-infective vitamin because of it’s effect on countering bacterial infections, including those of the lungs and urinary tract.
