25% UK toddlers lacking Vitamin D

A quarter of UK toddlers are lacking Vitamin D - Health News - Health & Families - The Independent

I think you'll find we told you so, many times, but just in case we'll tell you again.

Vitamin D  is one of the most important vitamins, especially for your immune system and for building and maintaining bone health.

Your body makes vitamin D from sunshine - If there ain't no sunshine, then she's gone, there ain't no vitamin D when she goes away.

If you spend your time playing nintendo or computer games instead of running about outside, riding in a car instead of on a bike, taking the tube / bus instead of walking through the park, thinking you look cool always wearing dark glasses or if you have dark skin to genetically protect you from a hot equatorial sun and you live in northern Europe or America then you are going to need a vitamin D supplement. A vitamin D defieciency leaves you with a greater risk of a number of different diseases not just bone problems and rickets.
