Formula: C₃₆H₆₀O₂
It is a fat-soluble compound, stable under normal storage conditions, which makes it suitable for use in dietary supplements and fortified foods.
Used to prevent or treat vitamin A deficiency, which can cause night blindness, dry skin, and impaired immune function.
Commonly found in multivitamins and standalone vitamin A supplements.
Added to foods like milk, cereals, margarine, and infant formulas to ensure adequate vitamin A intake in populations at risk of deficiency.
Preferred over other forms because of its stability and bioavailability.
Used in anti-aging creams, moisturizers, and sunscreen formulations.
In the skin, it’s converted to retinol and then to retinoic acid, which can promote cell turnover and collagen production.
However, it is less potent than prescription retinoids like tretinoin.
Included in some eye health formulations due to vitamin A’s role in maintaining vision (especially rhodopsin production in the retina).
Used in treatments for certain skin disorders when combined with other agents.
Fat-soluble, so excess intake can lead to hypervitaminosis A (vitamin A toxicity), causing symptoms like dizziness, nausea, headaches, and liver damage.
Not recommended in high doses during pregnancy, as it may cause birth defects.
The recommended daily allowance (RDA) varies by age, sex, and life stage (e.g., ～700–900 µg RAE for adults).
