Tag: vitaminA
Vitamin A (retinol): A vital nutrient found in animal food sources such as liver, dairy products, eggs, and fatty fish. In addition, provitamin A carotenoids (alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, gamma-carotene) can be converted to vitamin A in the body. High doses of vitamin A are toxic.
