Functions and Effects
Vitamin A is an essential nutrient for animals. It plays a crucial role in maintaining normal vision, especially in low-light conditions.
It also helps in promoting the growth and development of animals, enhancing the immune system to improve disease resistance, and maintaining the normal function of epithelial tissues such as the skin and mucous membranes.
Adequate vitamin A supplementation in animal feed can prevent vitamin A deficiency-related diseases, ensuring the healthy growth and high-quality production of livestock and poultry.
