How to scientifically supplement vitamin A and how much?
01.01.1
Vitamin A is essential for vision, immunity, and child development, and the risk of deficiency in children is five times higher than in adults, with night blindness being a typical manifestation. Animal foods such as milk (choose full fat), eggs, and animal liver are good quality sources. Plant-based sources include red-orange vegetables like carrots. One egg per day for children and 500ml of milk plus eggs in the morning and evening for adults is sufficient to meet the target. It is important to be aware of the upper limit of intake (10mg/day for adults, 7.5-15mg for children), as excessive amounts may be toxic.
