What it is

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for vision, immune function, and cell growth. It occurs naturally in foods like liver, fish oil, eggs, and dairy products. In packaged foods, it is typically added as vitamin A palmitate or vitamin A acetate, which are synthesized forms.

Why it's used

Vitamin A is added to foods as a nutrient to help consumers meet their daily requirements. It is commonly found in fortified products such as breakfast cereals, milk, and infant formula. It helps ensure that people who consume these foods receive adequate amounts of this essential vitamin.

Health notes

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) permits the addition of vitamin A to foods. Excessive intake of preformed vitamin A (retinol) can be toxic, leading to symptoms like dizziness, nausea, and even liver damage. However, the vitamin A added to most foods is generally within safe levels for the general population. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated vitamin A and established acceptable daily intakes.

Allergen info

Vitamin A itself is not a major allergen. However, it can sometimes be derived from or added to products containing major allergens like fish or dairy.
