For obvious reasons, Vitamin A is usually the first vitamin listed on ingredient labels. It also plays a vital role in the body’s function. Also known as Retinol, Vitamin A Vitamin A is a group of compounds that play an important role in maintaining good vision, bone growth, cell division, and cell differentiation. It also helps to regulate the immune system, preventing or fighting off infections by making white blood cells. Vitamin A is highly prized for its antioxidant capabilities, and has been shown to protect the body from many chronic ailments.

Animal products such as whole eggs, milk, are rich in vitamin A, but the form of the vitamin that is most rich in antioxidants can be found in darkly colored fruits and vegetables.

As previously discussed, this supplement is most likely to appeal to vegetarians, vegans, and those with sensitivities to animal products. Consumers may also be attracted to the convenience of a one-a-day tablet. However, it is quite difficult to pack an entire day’s worth of essential vitamins and minerals into a single pill, which is why we recommend a supplementation regimen that combines several different pills. For the greatest convenience, consumers should look for a product that offers individually packaged doses.

At first, we were pleased to see that Vegetarian Mega-Vita-Min promises super absorbency. Unfortunately, this product does not contain the patented absorption enhancer 2-AEP. This means that the body may not get the full benefit of all nutrients.

Many consumers choose a supplement simply based on price and convenience, but there are several more important factors to consider. Of course, those with dietary restrictions should double-check all ingredient labels. However, vegetarian or not, all consumers should consider finding a multivitamin that offers complete nutritional support in several pills. As previously discussed, single-serving packages can make taking each does a snap. Secondly, consumers should also look for a product that contains an advanced absorption enhancer so that they can be sure that their body is absorbing the maximum percentage of vitamins and minerals.
