All the time people are trying to incorporate more vitamins and healthy foods into their diet. I am going to tell you 5 easy ways to get more Vitamin D. Vitamin D is the new “IT” vitamin. It has wide ranging benefits from keeping your bones and heart healthy to reducing the risk of breast and other cancers. Most people don’t get enough of this vitamin, women are supposed to aim for 800-1,000 IU’s a day.

Eat Salmon;  a 3.5 oz serving has 360 IU’s in it. Almost all cow milk in the United States is fortified with vitamin D. One 8 oz glass gives you 98 IU’s. If you have milk allergies or are vegan many brands of soy, rice and almond milks are fortified with vitamin D as well, all you have to do is check the label! Some yogurts are fortified as well. Yoplait’s original fruit flavors have around 80 IU’s per container. 3 ounces of canned tuna in oil will give you 25% of the daily minimum. Last but not least is cereal. Not all of them are fortified so again you will have to check to labels. Two cereals that I for sure know are fortified are cheerios and raisin bran and each of them have about 40 IU’s per cup. Like I said these are all easy peasy ways to get your vitamin D you are probably already eating most of these, all you have to do is check the label to see if they’re fortified!
