Option+ Vitamin A 10,000 IU 100 Softgels is a dietary supplement that provides a high dose of vitamin A.

Active Ingredients:

  • Vitamin A (as Palmitate): 10,000 IU (3,000 mcg RAE)

Benefits (Claimed):

  • Supports eyesight, skin, and immune function
  • May help with development and maintenance of bones and teeth (at lower doses)

Considerations:

  • High Dosage: 10,000 IU is a very high dose of vitamin A. While it may be beneficial for certain deficiencies under a doctor's supervision, excessive intake of vitamin A can be toxic.
  • Not Suitable for Everyone: Pregnant or breastfeeding women, people with certain medical conditions, and those taking other medications should consult a doctor before using this product.
  • Potential Side Effects: High doses of vitamin A can cause birth defects, liver damage, and bone problems.
  • Better Options: In most cases, a healthy diet provides sufficient vitamin A. Lower dose supplements (around 4,000 IU) might be a safer option for some individuals.
