Yogurt can now have more Vitamin D3, if it's made a specific way

US health regulators are allowing more Vitamin D3 in yogurt and other cultured dairy products. This applies to products made with two specific bacteria: Lactobacillus delbrueckii, subspecies bulgaricus, and Streptococcus thermophilus.

Food companies can now add more of a common nutrient to certain dairy products. This means consumers might get more Vitamin D from foods they already eat, without needing to change their diet. It also means companies like General Mills, who petitioned for this change, can market their products as having higher nutrient content.
