somalis..Rickets is making a comeback in London

Post by military-mind »

It may be considered an illness of yesteryear but now it seems rickets is back and doctors say it is down to increasing numbers of Londoners suffering from a lack of Vitamin D.

Some studies report that up to 50% of ethnic minority communities have the deficiency.

While our main source of Vitamin D is through exposure to sunlight, supplies of the medicine to treat acute cases of the condition are running dangerously low.
