I've got no definitive info offhand, but mushroom Vitamin D varies wildly. 3 iu - 973 iu, based on 84 grams. http://mushroominfo.com/all-about-vitamin-d/ In my opinion, I feel mushrooms are superior to sunlight and artificial lighting. Plus, I love mushrooms. Cod liver oil, not so much. I just use light to see.
