Finest Sources of Vitamin D For Vegans

When compared to other vitamins, vitamin D is special. Although there are many foods and VItamin D Supplements that contain it, your body can also produce it. Your body has the capacity to change cholesterol into vitamin D, which also functions as a hormone, when your skin is exposed to sunshine. The foods that have the most vitamin D are often animal-based. There are, however, excellent sources of this vitamin that are suitable for vegans. Here are some of the top vegan vitamin D sources.

Mushrooms One of the few plant sources with a sizable amount of vitamin D is mushrooms. It's possible that mushrooms raised in darkness don't have a lot of vitamin D. However, 100 grams of mushrooms that were exposed to UV radiation while growing could have 450 IU. Vitamin D-2 is found in mushrooms, whereas vitamin D-3 is found in animal food. Vitamin D-2 may not be as bioavailable as vitamin D-3, but it can still increase vitamin D levels.

Fortified soy milk About 2.9 mcg (116 IU) of vitamin D are present in one cup of fortified soy milk. Before purchasing a brand of soy milk, it's crucial to read the label to determine whether it contains vitamin D. Little vitamin D is present in non-fortified brands.
