What it is

Milk with vitamin D added is cow's milk that has had vitamin D, a nutrient essential for bone health, added to it. The vitamin D is typically added in the form of vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) or vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). This fortification helps ensure consumers get adequate amounts of this vitamin, especially since sunlight exposure, another source of vitamin D, can be limited.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add vitamin D to milk to fortify it, helping consumers meet their daily requirements for this essential nutrient. It is most commonly found in fluid milk sold in the U.S., including whole milk, reduced-fat milk, and skim milk. It may also be found in some milk-based beverages and dairy products.

Health notes

In the U.S., vitamin D is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when added to milk. The U.S. National Academies have established upper intake levels for vitamin D. Both the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated vitamin D. Adequate vitamin D intake is important for calcium absorption and bone health, and deficiency can lead to bone problems. However, excessive intake can be harmful.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. Therefore, milk with vitamin D added is considered a major allergen.
