-
1
Eat a variety of foods rich in vitamin A and you should get all you need to maintain a healthy dose.
-
2
Eat lots of orange fruits and vegetables and green leafy vegetables and tomatoes. Eat them raw when you can because they lose nutrients, including vitamin A, when you cook them.
-
3
Eat organ meats such as liver and giblets. Also eat some fish like cod and salmon. Bake or broil meat instead of frying. Some vitamin A is lost when you fry meat.
-
4
Drink milk and eat dairy which is a good source of vitamin A. Even low fat and skim milks have vitamin A fortified in them because when they remove the fat, the vitamin A is lost with it. Butter is also rich in vitamin A.
-
5
Eat cold and hot breakfast cereals which are fortified with vitamin A.
