What does it do?

Retinol palmitate concentrated powder is a fat-soluble form of vitamin A, which is converted to vitamin A in the body and utilized. It is primarily included in pharmaceuticals to prevent or supplement vitamin A deficiency. It is especially used as a source of vitamin A in mixed vitamin preparations.

In the body, retinol palmitate is converted to retinol by enzymes, serving the role of vitamin A necessary for maintaining vision and cell growth. Vitamin A supports eye health and immune function, and contributes to maintaining the normal condition of skin and mucous membranes.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Retinol palmitate is a stable storage form of vitamin A, which is easier to store and transport than direct retinol. Unlike other forms of vitamin A, it is fat-soluble, making absorption and utilization in the body efficient, and since toxicity can occur with overdosing, proper dosage regulation is important.
