International Unit (IU)


Explanation:
What Does "IU" Mean in Vitamins? | LIVESTRONG.COM
www.livestrong.com › Health
- An international unit, or IU, is used to measure fat-soluble vitamins. Vitamins ... You obtain it through diet in two forms: retinols and carotenoids.

Converting International Units (I.U.) isn’t so simple–because it’s a different conversion for each nutrient. The I.U. is an arbitrary amount based on the amount of a given nutrient needed to produce a biological effect. Here are the conversions for the most common nutrients.

Nutrient Amount in 1 I.U.
Vitamin A 0.3 mcg
Beta-carotene 3.6 mcg
Vitamin D 0.025 mcg
Vitamin E 0.67 mg
