Although vitamin A is found only in foods of animal origin, some fruits and vegetables contain compounds, called cartenoids, that can be converted into vitamin A by your body. Food sources of preformed vitamin A include calf liver, milk, and eggs.

Cod liver oil, Dairy products, eggs, carrots, green leafy vegetables, tomatoes and papaya are very good sources of Vitamin A / beta - carotene (precursor of Vitamin A in the body).
