Vision Support

Retinyl palmitate supports healthy vision by acting as a precursor to retinol, which is essential for the production of rhodopsin, a light-sensitive pigment crucial for night vision. Supplementation can help improve visual function, especially in low-light conditions.

Retinyl palmitate, a preformed vitamin A, is converted to retinol in the body, which is then further metabolized to retinal and retinoic acid. Retinal is a crucial component of rhodopsin, a light-sensitive pigment found in the rod cells of the retina. Rhodopsin is essential for vision, particularly in low-light conditions. By providing a precursor to retinol, retinyl palmitate supports the regeneration of rhodopsin, thereby enhancing night vision and overall visual function.
