Vitamin A was first discovered in 1912 by a Polish biochemist named Casimir Funk.  He came up with the word “vitamine”, which was later changed to vitamin.  Funk was the first to discover vitamins as we know them today.  Vitamin A was actually the first one discovered, hence the letter “A” in the title of the vitamin.

You can find vitamin A in natural foods such as oranges and yellow fruits.  It can also be found in vegetables and fats.  When found in vegetables, Vitamin A is water soluble, coming in the form of beta carotene.  The beta carotene form of vitamin A can be eliminated from your body through natural processes, making it an excellent way to get vitamin A.

Vitamin A is required by the body on an everyday basis to maintain healthy skin and eyesight.  There are many people who say that carrots provide enough vitamin A to prevent you from getting night blindness.  The fact is, ancient Egyptian doctors prescribed liver, which they said contained enough vitamin A to combat night blindness.  Vitamin A is also known as an antioxidant, which makes it ideal to help prevent cancer and signs of aging.  Along with these benefits, it helps with your immune system as well.

To get the proper absorption of vitamin A, you’ll need to consume fat.  Those of you who happen to be on a low fat or restricted diet, may not be getting the amounts of Vitamin A from your supplements that you may think.  To get the proper absorption of Vitamin A in your diet, you’ll also need to consume a high enough level of protein.  Protein combines with vitamin A to make it stronger and help it move through your body.

On a normal day, you should be consuming around 5,000 international units (IU) of Vitamin A.  Depending on your health and your age, you may need to consume more or less.  The safest form of vitamin A is beta carotene as mentioned above, and it can be taken in much larger doses.

If you don’t consume enough Vitamin A in your diet, you may become deficient.  A deficiency of Vitamin A normally results in skin problems, increased infections, and even night blindness.  A prolonged deficiency in vitamin A can put you at a risk for cancer as well.  One way to ensure you are getting a sufficient amount of Vitamin A in your diet is to take a broad-spectrum micronutrient, which contains the recommended minimum daily requirements of all the necessary vitamins and minerals one needs.

On the other hand, if you are getting too much vitamin A, you’ll put yourself at risk for pain in your joints, abdomen, and your bones.  Too much or not enough Vitamin Acan cause you serious side effects so you should always be vigilant to get the right amount in your diet.  Vitamin A is very important, and should always be included in your diet.  You can find it in many foods and supplements.  If you are going to take supplements, you should make sure that they provide the right amounts to avoid unwanted side effect
