$15.97

A specialized dual-source Vitamin A supplement combining highly bioavailable preformed Retinyl Palmitate with plant-derived Beta-Carotene to maximize systemic uptake while eliminating the risk of toxicity. This clean formula is fortified with carrot powder, spirulina, and Vitamin E to supply the essential precursors for rhodopsin synthesis to enhance low-light vision, regulate keratin production for seamless shedding, and fortify the structural integrity of delicate mucosal barriers to reinforce the animal's baseline immune defenses.

Calcium Carbonate, Maltodextrin, Carrot Powder, Spirulina, Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A). d-alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E).

Potassium Vitamin A (as Retinyl Palmitate) 630,000 IU/kg

Beta-Carotene (Provitamin A)............3,900 IU/kg

Vitamin E (as d-alpha-Tocopherol)...1,000 IU/kg

Calcium (min)…................................20.0%

Usage Instructions:

For Herbivores (e.g., tortoises, iguanas):

Dose: 0.1 g (about 2 pinches) per 50 g leafy greens.

Frequency: 2 times per month.

For Insectivores (e.g., bearded dragons, leopard geckos):

Dose: 0.05 g (about 1 pinch) per 10 g feeder insects.

Frequency: 2 times per month.

For Omnivores (e.g., box turtles, blue-tongued skinks):

Dose: 0.075 g (about 1.5 pinches) per 30 g mixed food.

Frequency: 2 times per month.

Note: For carnivorous omnivores (e.g., skinks), use only if their diet lacks whole

prey.

For Carnivores (e.g., snakes, monitors):

Not needed; prey liver provides sufficient vitamin A.

Important Warnings:

 Do not combine with other vitamin A supplements.

 For Carnivores: Avoid entirely.

 Consult a reptile veterinarian before use in clinically deficient animals.

Important: Safe Use Instructions

Vitamin A is fat-soluble and can accumulate in the body. Prolonged overuse may cause toxicity,

leading to:

 Swelling, lethargy, or abnormal skin shedding

 Fluid retention or loss of appetite

Dual-Source Vitamin A Synergy: Combines preformed Retinyl Palmitate for immediate, highly bioavailable cellular integration with plant-derived Beta-Carotene for gradual, demand-driven metabolic conversion, effectively maximizing systemic uptake while eliminating the risk of accidental hypervitaminosis A (toxicity).

Ocular Cellular Health and Night-Vision Optimization: Supplies the essential biochemical precursors required for rhodopsin synthesis in the retina, maintaining optimal corneal transparency, alleviating dry-eye conditions, and enhancing low-light visual acuity for nocturnal and crepuscular species.

Epithelial Maintenance & Shedding (Ecdysis) Support: Regulates proper keratin production and skin cell differentiation across the epidermal layers, actively mitigating the risk of dysecdysis (incomplete sheds), skin thickening, and subcutaneous swelling.

Mucosal Barrier and Immune Defense Fortification: Maximizes the structural integrity of the delicate mucous membranes lining the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary tracts, reinforcing the reptile's primary cellular defenses against invading bacterial and viral pathogens.

Whole-Body Antioxidant Wellness via Superfoods: Expertly enhanced with real carrot powder, spirulina, and Vitamin E to introduce a powerful network of secondary antioxidants that combat cellular oxidative stress, assist in rapid tissue repair, and support long-term metabolic vitality across all life stages.
