1. Vitamin A
Vitamin A and all its types are extremely essential to maintain a strong immunity, regulate reproductive behaviours and primarily, strengthen our vision. Vitamins A, particularly beta-carotene, are extremely essential for ensuring the proper functioning of the retina, cornea and even the eye membranes.
Sweet potatoes pack up the richest concentration of vitamin A, and all you need is one medium-sized baked sweet potato to load upon more than 28000 IU of vitamin A, which is a whopping 561% of your daily dosage requirement. So, fix your family a delicious appetizer of oven-roasted sweet potato wedges instead of the oily regular fries.
Vitamins A can also be obtained from other food sources, such as carrots, eggs, beef liver, fish, spinach and milk.
