What it is
Grade A milk is fluid milk that meets the U.S. Public Health Service Grade A pasteurized milk ordinance standards for quality and safety. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is a fat-soluble vitamin that is often added to milk. It is produced naturally in the skin when exposed to sunlight or can be obtained from certain foods.
Why it's used
Milk is fortified with Vitamin D3 to help consumers meet their daily vitamin D needs. It is most commonly found in fluid milk products, but can also be added to some dairy-based products like cheese and yogurt.
Health notes
Vitamin D is essential for bone health, immune function, and other bodily processes. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers Vitamin D to be a nutrient that can be added to foods. The U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have established Upper Intake Levels (ULs) for vitamin D. JECFA and EFSA have also evaluated vitamin D. Consuming adequate vitamin D is important for overall health.
Allergen info
Milk is one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. Gluten is not typically found in milk or added vitamin D.
