La vitamina A es conocida por su papel en el mantenimiento de una visión saludable, pero también es fundamental para el crecimiento, el desarrollo embrionario y un sistema inmunitario fuerte.

La buena noticia es que los alimentos ricos en vitamina A suelen estar en su mejor momento durante los meses más fríos. Piense en los tonos naranjas brillantes y los verdes intensos de alimentos como las zanahorias, las batatas, las calabazas de invierno, la espinaca y la acelga.

Los beneficios de WIC le facilitan la tarea de llevar estos alimentos saludables y coloridos a la mesa de su familia. Llame para programar una cita hoy: 847-741-7370.

Vitamin A is famous for its role in keeping our vision sharp, but it’s also a superstar for overall growth, embryo development, and a strong immune system.

The good news is that Vitamin A-rich foods are often at their peak during the colder months! Think of those bright orange and dark leafy greens: carrots, sweet potatoes, winter squash, spinach, and collard greens.

Your WIC benefits make it easier to bring these healthy, colorful foods to your family's table. Call to schedule an appointment today: 847-741-7370.
