Vitamin A is required for the production of rhodopsin, a pigment found in rod cells that aids vision in low light conditions.1 Omega-3 fatty acids are required for proper retinal structure development and visual acuity in infants, as the rods and cones of the eye need DHA to function properly.2 DHA is also critical to support prenatal and postnatal brain development as significant levels are present on neuronal synapses.2 Vitamin D helps support bone growth in children and maintain bone health in adults. Recent research indicates that 600 IU vitamin D daily helps maximize bone health in adolescents and adults.3 NPN 80014858 10428500 1. IOM 2006: Institute of Medicine.
