Description*
Vitamin A is an important nutrient that is stored in the liver. Also known as retinol or retinoic acid, vitamin A supports healthy growth, cell division, vision, immunity, and even reproduction. Vitamin A is an umbrella term for two types of these fat-soluble nutrients found in both animals and plants. The body benefits from both types of vitamin A; however, some people may not prefer or be able to obtain it from animal sources found in dairy and meat.
NuMedica Vitamin A is an excellent source of the nutrient. Our supplement does NOT contain any milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, wheat, soy, peanuts, or tree nuts. Before taking any supplement, it's ideal to consult with your healthcare provider about dosing and possible interactions with medications you may be taking.
About Vitamin A
Vitamin A found in animal products is known as preformed vitamin A. The body can use the nutrient 'as is.' The vitamin A found in chicken, fish, meat, or dairy contains the compounds retinal, retinol, and retinoic acid. Vitamin A found in plants is known as provitamin A. It is an inactive form of the vitamin. In order to use it, our body converts it to the active form in the small intestine. The plant vitamin A, however, features healthful carotenoids like beta-carotene, beta cryptoxanthin, and alpha-carotene that are so important for supporting optimum health.
Vitamin A contains antioxidant properties that help the body combat free radicals, which are sometimes called the harbingers of disease. Antioxidants help protect the body's cells from these free radicals that are caused by everything from age to exposure to harmful chemicals in the air, water, or even our food. Free radicals can play a role in many diseases, including cancer and heart disease. A diet rich in antioxidants may help reduce risks for some diseases.
What Foods Contain Vitamin A?
Various foods are rich in vitamin A and make great sources for the nutrient. These foods include liver, spinach, green leafy vegetables, carrots, cantaloupe, and dairy products. Unfortunately, many people may find it difficult to get the required daily recommended amounts of vitamin A in their diet. A supplement like NuMedica Vitamin A can be a safeguard to ensure that you're getting your recommended allowance of this important nutrient.
How Much Vitamin A Does a Person Need?
According to expert medical centers like Mayo Clinic, adult men should get 900 micrograms of vitamin A each day. Women should get 700 micrograms of vitamin A daily. Unlike some other vitamins, vitamin A is not water soluble; it's fat soluble. That means that it can be stored in the body's tissues.
How Does Vitamin A Support Health?
Vitamin A plays an important role in supporting many aspects of our health like vision and organ function. Many people choose to take a supplement like NuMedica Vitamin A in order to ensure they are able to benefit from the benefits it may provide.
Vision Health
The compounds found in vitamin A are known to support vision health. Vitamin A can help reduce the risk for age-related vision decline. It may also help in the prevention of night blindness, which is a common symptom among people who are vitamin A deficient. Age-related macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss; eating foods rich in beta-carotene may be able to help combat the risk.
Immune System Support
Vitamin A is known to help support the immune system and is involved in producing white blood cells that help remove bacteria from the body. If a person is vitamin A deficient, they may be more susceptible to infections.
Bone Health
Vitamin A has been linked to good bone health. In fact, people who are deficient in this nutrient have a higher risk for experiencing bone fractures. Other key nutrients like calcium and vitamin D also support bone health. Together, these vitamins play a role in keeping bones strong.
Order NuMedica Vitamin A to support optimum health. If you're not getting the recommended daily allowance of this nutrient, you may benefit from its supplemental use.
Caution: Studies have shown that excess vitamin A is not healthful for the body. As a fat-soluble vitamin, it can be stored in the tissues for months. Consequently, too much of the vitamin can lead to a build-up. Be sure to consult with your physician before taking a vitamin A supplement to ensure you get the proper dose.

Reseller Order Policy Change
Effective December 1, 2023
SupplementRelief.com has been an Authorized Reseller (Team Member) of FirstFitness Nutrition (FFN) since April of 2020, selling FFN products directly from our website to our customers, handling the payment processing, order fulfillment, and customer service.
Effective December 1, 2023 FirstFitness Nutrition REQUIRES ALL Authorized Resellers, who have formerly sold FFN products DIRECTLY from their OWN website, to refer the PRODUCT PURCHASE to the Reseller's FFN Team Member website.
You may continue placing orders on SupplementRelief.com through December 31, 2023 for the remaining products we have in stock.
SupplementRelief.com's FFN Team Member website is:
supplementrelief.firstfitness.com
On the top right of every page you will see our Team Member name to confirm you are on the correct FFN Team Member website:
Your FFN Team Member: SUPPLEMENTRELIEF.COM
Please BOOKMARK this new website supplementrelief.firstfitness.com for future shopping. You may begin using the Team Member website immediately.
You may also place your order directly over the phone by calling either SupplementRelief.com at 888.424.0032 or FirstFitness Nutrition's Customer Support line at 800.621.4348. Please let them know that your FFN Team Member is SUPPLEMENTRELIEF.COM.
You may continue to use this website (supplementrelief.com) for FFN product descriptions and other Wellness content from our Blog, Education, or Recipes, but on December 1, 2023:
- The "Add to Cart" button will change to a "Purchase on FFN Team Member Website" button, and your browser will automatically open a new page on our FFN Team Member Website to purchase the product. You can stay on the new site and shop for ALL other FirstFitness Nutrition products without returning to this website.
- If you formerly had a LOGIN ACCOUNT on SupplementRelief.com, it WILL NOT WORK on the FFN Team Member website. You will be given an option to create a new account on the FFN Team Member Website. You WILL NOT NEED your SupplementRelief.com account on this website anymore, unless you want to see your Order History for orders you placed on SupplementRelief.com in the past.
How Does This Affect Future FFN Purchases?
This means that as of December 1, 2023:
- You may purchase FFN products only from an FFN Team Member website.
- ALL ORDERS will now be PROCESSED and SHIPPED directly by FirstFitness Nutrition. The company name on your credit card statement will no longer say SUPPLEMENTRELIEF but will now say FIRST FITNESS.
- You may optionally create a new account on our FFN Team Member website, or you can shop as a Guest— both options work fine. Setting up a new account on the FFN website is recommended to make placing future orders easier, as FirstFitness will already have your information to process your order once you log on to our Team Member website.
