How to read this ranking
This page compares Vitamin D (D2 + D3, µg) (Vitamin D (D2 + D3)), in µg per 100 g of food.
Chemical forms and measurement methods remain separate. “Not reported” means a value is unavailable, not that the food contains zero. A food’s rank does not determine your individual needs or diagnose a deficiency.
This NIH fact sheet discusses the nutrient family. Vitamin D (D2 + D3) is the specific USDA measurement on this page. Do not apply family intake recommendations directly to this form or unit; use the definitions, population groups, and food/supplement distinctions in the source.

What is vitamin D and what does it do?
Vitamin D is a nutrient you need for good health. It helps your body absorb calcium, one of the main building blocks for strong bones. Together with calcium, vitamin D helps protect you from developing osteoporosis, a disease that thins and weakens the bones and makes them more likely to break. Your body needs vitamin D for other functions too. Your muscles need it to move, and your nerves need it to carry messages between your brain and your body. Your immune system needs vitamin D to fight off invading bacteria and viruses.
How much vitamin D do I need?
The amount of vitamin D you need each day depends on your age. Average daily recommended amounts are listed below in micrograms (mcg) and International Units (IU).
