1 Animal groups receiving: Control (VitD normal diet), VitD dispersed in nanoemulsion (Nano-VitD), VitD mixed in oil (Oil-VitD), nanoemulsion without VitD (Nano-control), and canola oil without VitD (Oil-control).When present, different superscripts (a,b) within each column represent statistical differences after One-way ANOVA and Tukey’s HSD test (p < 0.05).
