Vitamin A And D Added

Vitamin A and D are essential nutrients that the body needs to function. They are often added to foods like milk to increase their nutritional value. These vitamins can be synthesized or derived from animal sources.

Manufacturers add Vitamin A and D to foods, especially dairy products like milk, to fortify them and help consumers meet their daily requirements for these essential nutrients. This fortification is common in low-fat and non-fat milk varieties.

Vitamin A and D are considered safe and essential nutrients when consumed at typical levels found in fortified foods. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) permits their addition to foods. Both vitamins have been evaluated by international bodies like JECFA and EFSA. Excessive intake of these vitamins can lead to adverse health effects, but this is unlikely from typical food consumption.
