10 Foods High in Vitamin D
Vitamin D Rich Food #9: Milk
Ordinary cow’s milk contains little vitamin D. However, dairy products are typically fortified with vitamin D and other micronutrients to prevent deficiency. One cup of milk contains up to 124 IUs of the sunshine vitamin. This quantity may, however, be lower depending on the brand of milk. Besides, whole milk contains more vitamin D mainly because the sunshine vitamin is fat soluble.
Milk is also a good source of protein, B vitamins, and minerals like calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc and magnesium. Non-dairy milks such as almond milk and soy milk are also fortified with vitamin D in addition to other vitamins and minerals.
