Abstract
Background: Vitamin D has been added to calcium-fortified orange juice. Analysis of the area under the curve showed no significant difference in serum 25(OH)D between subjects who consumed vitamin D–fortified orange juice and those who consumed vitamin D supplements (P = 0.084). No significant difference in serum 25(OH)D 3 was observed between subjects who consumed vitamin D 3 –fortified orange juice and vitamin D 3 capsules (P > 0.1).

Ded to calcium-fortified orange juice. A secondary aim was to determine which form of vitamin D is more bioavailable in orange juice. Analysis of the area under the curve showed no significant difference in serum 25(OH)D between subjects who consumed vitamin D-fortified orange juice and those who consumed vitamin D supplements (P = 0.084).
No significant difference in serum 25(OH)D(3) was observed between subjects who consumed vitamin D(3)-fortified orange juice and vitamin D(3) capsules (P > 0.1). Similarly, no significant difference in serum 25(OH)D(2) was observed between subjects who consumed vitamin D(2)-fortified orange juice and vitamin D(2) capsules (P > 0.1). No significant overall difference in parathyroid hormone concentrations was observed between the groups (P = 0.82).
