Vitamin D is a very beneficial nutrient for humans that helps with a bunch of things like helping the digestive system absorb phosphorus and calcium. It is a very important nutrient for human health. The best source of vitamin D is the sun itself. That is how it gets its nickname, “sunshine vitamin.”
Here are a few other sources of vitamin D you should know of, as per an Insider report! Take a look:
1) Dark Fatty Fish:
Dark fatty fish are a great source of vitamin D and are a good place to get the nutrients for non-vegetarians and fish-eaters. Add fishes like Salmon, Herring, Sardines, or canned Tuna.
2) Egg Yolks:
For people who don’t eat fish, whole eggs are a good source of vitamin D. Most nutrition is found in the egg yolk.
3) Multivitamins:
Multivitamins are safe and are often seen as dietary supplements with minimal regulations. It’s a great way to get in some extra vitamins and nutrients. Cod Liver Oil is a popular supplement that you could use.
4) Mushrooms:
Mushrooms are the only non-animal source of vitamin D. This is a good option for vegans to get their vitamin D (Fortified orange juice is also a vegan-friendly option).
5) Fortified foods:
This is a great option for vegetarians, and in some cases, vegans as well. While some food products don’t naturally contain Vitamin D, they are fortified with the nutrient.
i) Fortified dairy products like cow’s milk, or soy milk (soy milk is often fortified with nutrients that cow’s milk contains).
ii) Fortified orange juice is a great source of this nutrient for people who are lactose intolerant.
iii) Fortified cereals and oatmeal are also food products that have been fortified with vitamin D.
