What is Vitamin A Palmitate?
Vitamin A Palmitate is a bioavailable form of vitamin A that is commonly used singly or in combination with other nutrients in dietary supplements. Also called retinyl palmitate, Vitamin A Palmitate is quickly absorbed and used by the body without requiring any chemical conversion in the body.
Vitamin A Palmitate is taken as a dietary supplement to support vision health, the immune system, reproductive health, skin health, and the healthy growth and functioning of tissues.
Vitamin A Palmitate deficiency is common, particularly among children, and is either caused by poor nutrition, illnesses, or high exposure to oxidants, such as smoking or alcohol. Because Vitamin A Palmitate is vital to the retina's ability to detect light, the first sign of Vitamin A Palmitate deficiency is vision impairment, particularly at night.
As a supplement, Vitamin A Palmitate is usually taken in the form of a tablet or capsule. Vitamin A Palmitate is available in many over-the-counter vitamin supplements both individually and in combination with other nutrients. It is rarely packaged as Vitamin A Palmitate, but more commonly labeled simply as Vitamin A. If you are looking for Vitamin A Palmitate in particular, you may need to read the ingredients. Vitamin A Palmitate may be listed on the ingredients as either vitamin A (as palmitate) or retinyl palmitate.
Vitamin A Palmitate is sometimes used in skincare and beauty products, particularly products formulated for sensitive skin. Vitamin A helps build collagen and exfoliate skin; Vitamin A Palmitate has the fewest side effects or sensitivity reactions than other more common forms of vitamin A used in skincare products (retinol, retinoic acid, or retinaldehyde).
What are the side effects of Vitamin A Palmitate?
As a naturally-occurring molecule in the body and many foods, Vitamin A Palmitate does not have significant side effects. However, Vitamin A Palmitate supplements often have other inactive ingredients, so allergic reactions to Vitamin A Palmitate supplements may happen in some people. These side effects include itching, rash, hives, eye pain, trouble breathing, or headache. If you have any reaction to Vitamin A Palmitate supplements, stop taking the supplement and consult with your physician.
