How to Get More Vitamin D from your Diet – Enjoy Cream of Rice!


Are you feeling a little off lately? Are you tired, experiencing achy joints, and can’t seem to fight off the sniffles? You might be low in Vitamin D. This essential vitamin is crucial to our wellbeing. It helps regulate and retain calcium in our bodies, ensuring our bones, teeth, and muscles can stay strong and perform their functions.

Vitamin D is known as the “Sunshine Vitamin” because that’s where most people get it. Not many foods are rich in Vitamin D. Instead, our skin can absorb the sun’s rays on bright days, giving us enough of the nutrient to keep our bodies healthy.

However, if you’re in an area where the sun isn’t out for long periods of time or have a job that doesn’t allow you to see much daylight, your body may not be getting all the Vitamin D your bones and muscles need to thrive. You may start to feel sluggish, experience pain in your muscles and joints, notice thinning hair, become more prone to getting sick, or feel extra blue.

So, how do you increase your Vitamin D intake from your diet if you can’t soak up the sun? Try Cream of Rice. Our easy-to-prepare hot breakfast cereal is an excellent source of Vitamin D, and it provides a blank canvas for you to create a delicious bowl of food. The Cream of Rice nutrition ensures a great start to your day!

Moreover, the great news is that Vitamin D isn’t the only essential vitamin you’ll get in a bowl of Cream of Rice. It’s also full of iron and calcium, and is naturally gluten-free and sodium-free. No wonder it’s a favorite pre-workout meal of bodybuilders like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
