Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Rich Pericarp Mangosteen Contains Vitamin A

(*) See References and Disclaimer at the bottom of the page.

Our Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Rich Pericarp Mangosteen contains Vitamin A which is a fat-soluble group of vitamins found mostly in animal-based foods such as eggs, liver, and in other food products that are fortified with Vitamin A(1*).

Another source of Vitamin A comes from plants that possess a pigment called carotenoids(2*). The right kind of carotenoid can be turned into vitamin A from within our body. Beta-carotene yields more retinol than other carotenoids because of the extra retinyl functional group attached to it(3*) .

Vitamin A is essential for reproduction, bone growth, vision, cell division, and differentiation(4*). In addition, vitamin A helps maintain healthy eyes as well as a healthy intestinal, urinary, and respiratory tract(5*). Moreover, it plays a role in the production of mucus membranes and skin both of which act as a barricade against viruses and bacteria(6*).

Vitamin A also aids in supporting the immune system by helping with the production of white blood cells that fend off all foreign micro-organisms(7*).
