Detailed explanation-1: -Many dairy products, such as milk and yogurt, are fortified with vitamin D as well, as are non-dairy alternatives like soy milk, almond milk, and oat milk. Fortified milk typically has around 3mg (120 IU) of vitamin D, and non-dairy alternatives have between 2.5 and 3.6mg per 1 cup.
Detailed explanation-2: -Since each serving of milk only contains about 100 to 180 IU of vitamin D, you’ll probably need additional food sources to meet the daily recommended 600-800 IU intake (Holick, 2011). Experts agree a varied diet rich in foods with vitamin D is the best way to ensure you’re meeting the daily requirement.
