Explanation
Choice C is correct. Salmon is a fatty fish and one of the best natural sources of vitamin D. Baked chicken is not a meaningful source.
Choice A is incorrect. Nuts are rich in healthy fats and some minerals, but are not significant sources of vitamin D.
Choice B is incorrect. These leafy greens are rich in vitamin K and calcium, but not in vitamin D.
Choice D is incorrect. The vitamin D in eggs is found in the yolk, not the white. Switching to egg whites decreases vitamin D intake.
