Description
India Has a Sunshine Problem. This Snack Helps.
Despite being one of the world’s sunniest countries, India has one of the highest rates of Vitamin D insufficiency. Office hours, covered clothing, urban living, and limited dietary sources mean that millions of Indians simply are not getting enough of this essential nutrient — and most do not even know it.
Nexina Vitamin D Khakhra is India’s first naturally high Vitamin D snack — made with Vitamin D Mushroom (Edible Fungi Extract), a natural plant-based source of this sunshine nutrient, baked right into a delicious, cholesterol-free, 100% roasted Khakhra.
Supporting your Vitamin D intake has never been this effortless. Or this tasty.

The Vitamin D Story — Why This Nutrient Matters in Your Daily Diet
Vitamin D is often called the ‘sunshine vitamin’ because the human body can produce it when skin is exposed to sunlight. But in modern Indian lifestyles — with long indoor hours, sun avoidance, and limited dietary sources — most people simply do not get enough.
| Vitamin D Supports | Nutritional Significance in a Daily Diet |
| Calcium Absorption | Vitamin D is essential for the intestinal absorption of calcium — without sufficient Vitamin D, even a high-calcium diet may not deliver full bone-building benefit |
| Phosphorus Absorption | Works alongside calcium absorption to support the mineralisation of bones and teeth — a process that depends on adequate Vitamin D |
| Bone & Teeth Health | Sufficient Vitamin D is associated with normal bone growth and development — particularly important for children and older adults |
| Immune System Function | Vitamin D receptors are present in nearly all immune cells, and adequate intake is linked to normal immune system function in food nutrition science |
| Resistance Against Disease | Population-level nutrition research links Vitamin D sufficiency with improved resistance against certain common health challenges |
| Cannot Be Made by the Body | Unlike most nutrients, Vitamin D cannot be synthesised by the body from food — it must come from sun exposure or dietary sources, making food-based Vitamin D uniquely important |
The Secret Ingredient — Vitamin D Mushroom (Edible Fungi Extract)
Mushrooms are one of the only natural plant-based food sources of Vitamin D. When exposed to UV light, edible fungi produce Vitamin D2 — just as human skin produces Vitamin D3 when exposed to sunlight. Nexina uses Vitamin D Mushroom / Edible Fungi Extract as the natural Vitamin D source in this Khakhra — making it a genuinely unique food ingredient that no other Indian snack brand currently offers.
