Vitamin D deficiency is widespread among Indian adults—even in sunny cities. Sedentary indoor lifestyles, pollution, and dietary gaps contribute to a silent epidemic of fatigue, poor immunity, and bone-related issues.
According to a 2022 study published in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine (Ramanathan et al., 2022), over 70% of Indian adults may have insufficient levels of Vitamin D, leading to increased risks of osteoporosis, depression, and metabolic disorders.
What Can We Do?
While sunlight is the primary natural source of Vitamin D, food-based strategies are crucial—especially during monsoons or for indoor workers. The good news? Some cheeses, especially those that are fortified or naturally rich in Vitamin D and calcium, can help bridge this gap.
Why Cheese?
● Natural source of Vitamin D and Calcium
● Improves bone mineral density when combined with probiotics
● Good fat enhances Vitamin D absorption
Curious Cheese for a Health Boost:
Our probiotic Edam and Mozzarella not only support gut health but are designed to retain essential nutrients like Vitamin D and K2, which help calcium do its job better. Together, they aid bone strength and immune function—especially vital for growing kids and aging parents.
Try This at Home:
● Mozzarella & veggie toast for a Vitamin D-rich breakfast
● Edam cubes with fruits and nuts as a mid-day snack
