00:00Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones, muscles, immune function, and overall health.
00:05Adults ages 19 to 70 generally need 600 IU of vitamin D each day.
00:10Fatty fish are among the best natural sources, with trout providing about 539 IU per fillet.
00:17Salmon contains around 493 IU in a 3-ounce serving.
00:22Cod liver oil is another concentrated option, providing about 1360 IU per tablespoon.
00:28Fortified foods like milk, plant-based milk, yogurt, cereal, and orange juice can also add vitamin D.
00:36A cup of fortified, reduced-fat milk typically provides about 98 IU.
00:41Egg yolks contain smaller amounts, with one large egg providing roughly 49,5 IU.
00:47UV-exposed mushrooms can provide significantly more, with one cup containing up to thousands on 22 IU.
00:54However, food alone may not provide enough vitamin D for everyone.
00:58Experts recommend combining vitamin D-rich foods with safe sun exposure, and supplements when needed.
01:04Because vitamin D needs vary between individuals, checking blood levels, and consulting a healthcare provider can help determine the right
01:12approach.
