Alpha-Carotene is the more abundant form of vitamin A. This fat-soluble nutrient is found in many orange foods such as sweet potatoes and carrots. Vitamin A helps eyes to adjust to changing light, and it helps keep eyes and skin moist. There are dangerous side-effects with over supplementing this vitamin.
