10 Foods High in Vitamin D
Vitamin D Rich Food #8: Eggs
An egg is a natural food high in vitamin D. One large chicken egg contains 41 IUs of vitamin D. While this is only 10 percent of the daily value, adding an egg to your diet can play an important role in meeting your RDA for vitamin D. Additionally; eggs are a rich source of many other nutrients such as protein and carotenoids.
Eggs from geese, ducks and similar birds have similar nutrient content. Eggs also contain vitamin A, some B vitamins, and minerals including magnesium, iron and calcium. But bear in mind that eggs contain high amounts of saturated fat and cholesterol. For this reason, you should eat them in moderation.
