What are some Foods High in Vitamin A? |
|
Answer:
Considered essential for life, Vitamin A is I’ve found Vitamin A in natural animal sources such as beef, beef, pork, chicken, turkey and fish liver, eggs, butter, whole milk, mozzarella and cheddar cheese and use several sources routinely. Egg substitutes are also on this list. Plant sources are not always standard daily fare, but do offer a variety of fruits and vegetables for a change of pace. Plant sources include: * sweet potatoes * carrots * beetroot * broccoli * spinach * winter squash * kale * peas * sweet red peppers * oatmeal * tomato juice * apricots, fresh and dried * peaches * apples * lemons Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that’s stored in the liver and is essential for growth and repair of body tissues. Some sources say the vitamin may also act as an antioxidant. Word to the wise: Coffee lovers, those with a taste for alcoholic beverages or people having excessive iron in their systems may face a loss of Vitamin A. On the other hand, too much Vitamin A from animal sources or supplements may be toxic. Trackback(0)
