Deficiency in Vitamin A leads to dry skin with an aging appearance and leads to thickening of the skin on the soles and palms.
Natural Factors Vitamin A is made from cod liver oil, which undergoes a process called advanced molecular distillation to protect the oils during processing, while ensuring that there is no contamination with heavy metals or chemicals.
