Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin, an organic compound with the chemical formula C20H30O. It is stable to heat, acid, and alkali, and is easily oxidized. Ultraviolet radiation can promote its oxidative damage. Vitamin A includes A1 and A2, with A1 being retinol. Foods that are high in vitamin A include poultry and animal liver, egg yolks, and milk powder. Carotenoids can be converted into vitamin A in the small intestine mucosa. Red yellow and dark green vegetables, as well as fruits, are high in carotenoids.
It is widely use in many fields like the following:
1. Vitamin A is an important component for the eyes because it can protect vision and has a positive effect on eye tissues, which can treat eye diseases.
2. Vitamin A can maintain skin health, treat symptoms such as itching and dryness, and prevent skin flaking.
3. Vitamin A can also promote development, as it helps bones absorb calcium and prevent calcium loss, thus playing a role in promoting development.
4. Vitamin A helps to maintain normal immune system function, strengthen the body's resistance to infectious diseases, especially respiratory and parasitic infections, and aid in the treatment of emphysema and hyperthyroidism.
5. Vitamin A is related to the regulation of genes by retinol, which also acts as a steroid hormone, promoting the synthesis of glycoproteins, promoting growth and development, strengthening bones, and maintaining the health of hair, teeth, and gums.

Feature of Vitamin A raw material:
- Vitamin A can remain relatively stable in high temperature and alkaline environments, and is not easily destroyed during general cooking processes. However, vitamin A is highly prone to oxidative conformational changes, especially under high temperature conditions, and exposure to ultraviolet radiation can accelerate this oxidative damage. Therefore, in order to maintain its effectiveness, it should be stored in a dark and low-temperature environment.
- Vitamin A plays multiple important physiological functions in the human body, including maintaining normal vision, promoting growth and development, enhancing immunity, and maintaining skin and mucosal health. It participates in the synthesis of rhodopsin, which helps prevent night blindness and vision loss, and also plays an important role in the normal function of epithelial cells.
