Analysis of your vitamin A levels

Vitamin A is a crucial nutrient that plays a central role in many of the body's important functions. It is necessary to maintain good vision, especially in the dark, and it contributes to the efficiency of the immune system as well as the health of the skin. Vitamin A is also important for cell growth and development, especially in the skin and mucous membranes, and it acts as an antioxidant that protects cells from damage. Adequate levels of vitamin A are essential to ensure good general health and well-being.

The vitamin A test measures S-Retinol, which is the most bioactive form of vitamin A in the body. By analyzing S-Retinol, we can reliably assess your vitamin A levels. The test shows whether you have a possible vitamin A deficiency or whether you have normal or elevated levels. It gives you insight into your values ​​and whether any symptoms you experience may be due to vitamin A deficiency. By testing yourself, you get a good view of your levels and can make the necessary changes in your diet or lifestyle to confirm a balanced vitamin A status.

Why should I do a vitamin A test?

Vitamin A is known to support vision, the immune system and skin health, but its importance extends far beyond these functions. Here are some reasons why it might be good to test your vitamin A level:

  • Visual health: Vitamin A is necessary to create rhodopsin, a pigment in the retina that makes it possible to see in low light. Lack of vitamin A can lead to night blindness and other vision problems.
  • Immune system: Vitamin A helps to strengthen the body's defense against infections by supporting the functions of the immune system and maintaining healthy mucous membranes that act as a barrier against pathogens.
  • Skin health: Vitamin A helps maintain healthy skin by supporting cell renewal and reducing inflammation. Retinoids, derivatives of vitamin A, are often used to treat acne and other skin conditions.
  • Cell growth and development: Vitamin A is important for normal growth and development of cells, especially in the skin, mucous membranes and other tissues of the body. It plays an important role in maintaining the skin's elasticity and structure.
  • Antioxidative protection: Vitamin A acts as an antioxidant and protects cells from damage caused by free radicals. This can help reduce the risk of certain chronic diseases.
  • Prevention of deficiency diseases: Inadequate levels of vitamin A can lead to serious deficiency diseases such as night blindness and increased susceptibility to infections. A test can help identify deficiencies in time and long-term health problems.
