Currently, approximately 60% of dietary vitamin D consumption occurs via fortified foods. Vitamin D insufficiency (50\u201390%) is widespread according to age and region, despite different levels of sunlight exposure. The food industry must identify more effective strategies to increase normal dietary vitamin D intake and improve overall health. Strategies for vitamin D fortification include bioaddition, wherein a vitamin D-rich food source is added to staple foods during processes. These bioadditive strategies expand the range of vitamin D-containing foods and appeal to different preferences, cultures, and economic statuses. In several countries, vitamin D deficiency places athletes at a high risk of disease susceptibility. Due to low sun exposure, athletes in countries with higher and lower levels of sunlight have similar risks of vitamin D deficiency. In this review, we summarize recent technical advances to promote vitamin D utilization by humans during sports activities and in relation to the normal practices of athletes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/foods12020256","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,6]],"date-time":"2023-01-06T02:20:30Z","timestamp":1672971630000},"page":"256","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Vitamin D Fortification and Its Effect on Athletes\u2019 Physical Improvement: A Mini Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Cong","family":"Feng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xinjie","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological and Chemical Engineering, Zhejiang University of Science and Technology, Hangzhou 310023, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Meram","family":"Chalamaiah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural, Food and Nutritional Science (AFNS), 4-10 Ag\/For Centre, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2P5, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaofeng","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Biological Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8682-7855","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mingxing","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Business Administration, School of Business, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan 38541, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Baoguo","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Food and Biological Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"431","DOI":"10.1016\/j.psc.2021.04.009","article-title":"Nutrition, eating disorders, and behavior in athletes","volume":"44","author":"Adena","year":"2021","journal-title":"Psychiatr.
