• Driving at night is difficult for me. I would like to be able to see well at night.
• My skin is very dry and, in places, has little bumps. I would like to support healthy skin.
• I struggle with a lot of pimples, acne and oil on my face and other parts of my body. I would like to support healthy, clear skin.

• My eyes are dry. I would like my eyes to feel moist and healthy.
• I tend to get sick easily. I would like to support a healthy immune system.
• I have a genetic variation in the BCMO1 gene which slows my ability to convert beta-carotene to retinol.
• I am a vegan or vegetarian. I get beta-carotene but I don’t eat many foods containing the retinol type of vitamin A.

Vitamin A Drops contain an effective amount of vitamin A. Unlike beta-carotene, retinyl palmitate is a biologically active form that can be used directly by your body. This form also bypasses common genetic variations in the BCO1 gene, which may affect a large portion of the population.

Many vitamin A supplements contain unfavorable ingredients such as soy, rancid fish oils, rancid fatty acids and low quality liver oils. Many contain only beta-carotene. This carotenoid requires multiple biochemical, and enzymatic, conversions before becoming the bioactive form of retinol.

Seeking Health understands the importance of a pure form vitamin A. Their Vitamin A Drops provide you with high-quality retinol in a liposomal form that your body can efficiently absorb and utilize.

Vitamin A Drops support healthy:

• Overall immune health
• Antioxidant function
• Skin & mucous membranes
• Eye health, including tear production, and night vision
• Dental health, including normal saliva production
• Fertility (female & male)
• Normal growth and development
• Wound healing

Side effects of vitamin A deficiency can include:

• Night blindness
• Dry skin or flaky skin
• Acne
• Dry eyes
• Infertility
• Immune issues
• Poor wound healing
• Birth defects
• Fetal heart disease or abnormality

A deficiency of this fat-soluble vitamin can occur for several reasons. You can have a variation in your BC01 gene, which converts the inactive form of vitamin A from fruits and vegetables called beta-carotene to the active form that your body can use, retinyl palmitate. This active form of vitamin A is only found in animal food sources and dairy products. For example, concentrated natural omega-3 fish oil or liver oil are great sources of retinyl palmitate.

Individuals who eat a plant-based diet often exhibit lower levels of this active form of vitamin A. Bright orange fruits, like cantaloupe, and vegetables, like sweet potatoes, contain the carotenoid beta-carotene, an inactive or “pre-” vitamin form of vitamin A. Unfortunately, the conversion of this type of pre-vitamin to the actual vitamin A is not very efficient. This is why vitamin A supplements are often important for vegetarians, and particularly vegans. They are typically more prone to being below the recommended dietary allowance (RDA).

Zinc deficiency is another cause for low levels of vitamin A in the blood. Zinc is required to help transport vitamin A throughout the body, but a zinc deficiency means that less vitamin A stores in the liver are moved to the body’s tissues. If you have lower levels of vitamin A, consider having your zinc levels checked out, and look into supplementing with Zinc Lozenge.

Seeking Health’s Vitamin A Drops can be taken by anyone wishing to optimize their vitamin A intake or requiring vitamin A supplementation, especially those who have trouble swallowing traditional pills or capsules.

As a fat-soluble nutrient, vitamin A is more difficult to absorb than water-soluble vitamins. Per drop, Seeking Health’s Vitamin A Drops deliver 750 mcg RAE (2,500 IU) vitamin A in a well absorbed liposome. Liposomes are known for superior absorption. This is especially important for those having difficulty absorbing nutrients.
