Description
On today's episode Phil interviews Vitamin D is critical to your overall health and is a major contributor to the immune system. And while receiving the right amount of vitamin D comes with a fair share of benefits, a lack of this important nutrient can mean bad things for your customers. At Monterey Mushrooms, we expose our “high vitamin D” mushrooms to a precise wavelength of ultraviolet light within the UV spectrum. Naturally occurring ergosterol (previtamin-D) within the mushrooms is converted to ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) once exposed to UV light. MontereyMushrooms high vitamin D mushrooms provide 400 IUs (10 mcg) which is 50% DV per serving. A serving is about 5 medium mushrooms - so eating just 10 mushrooms a day gives you 100% of FDA’s daily value recommendation of vitamin D. Cooking with mushrooms specially labeled “High Vitamin D” is one of the easiest ways to add this important vitamin to your customer’s diet. Mushrooms make a terrific complement to many meals, like adding them to dishes you eat every day. Add sauteed mushrooms to avocado toast, burgers, steaks, salads and eggs! All Monterey Mushrooms’s sliced white and baby bella mushrooms in 8-ounce and 16-ounce packages are high in vitamin D as are packages of 8-ounce portabellas. So, get yours today and recommend them to everyone you talk to.
