Nature’s Best enriched with Vitamin D
Australian research produces vitamin D enriched eggs
One of Australia’s most nutritious and least expensive natural food items is now available in an improved form – Nature’s Best enriched with Vitamin D Free Range Eggs.
Eggs are a naturally rich source of vitamin D. Recent research at Sydney University has shown that by feeding laying hens higher levels of vitamin D, there was a significant increase in the amount of vitamin D deposited into the egg yolk (Browning and Cowieson 2014).
A non-enriched or standard egg may contain between 20 to 60 IU of vitamin D but eggs from laying hens fed higher levels of vitamin D could contain at least 150 IU of vitamin D. Therefore, a daily serving of 2 Nature’s Best enriched with Vitamin D eggs would readily satisfy the recommended daily intake of 200 IU Vitamin D for Australian children and adults less than 50 years of age, as recommended by the National Medical Health Research Council.
A breakfast containing Nature’s Best enriched with Vitamin D Free Range Eggs is a great start to the day for young and old, from toddlers to the older folk. Quite simply, Nature’s Best enriched with Vitamin D Free Range Eggs taste delicious.
