    Does anyone have a recommendation for "active" Vitamin A supplement?

    I have the BCM01 gene mutation and therefore I have diminished capacity to convert the vitamin A found in plant sources to its active form - retinal. Currently, I drink one cup of carrot juice a day and take no supplement but given my mutation, I'm wondering if I should go ahead and add a Vitamin A supplement. I want to find one that is "active" and good for this particular mutation but am not sure what to look for. Suggestions? Thanks!
