title: Time to see the light.
abstract: There is growing concern about low vitamin D levels in the UK population, and children from a range of backgrounds are now presenting with rickets, the bone disease associated with poor nutrition in the 19th century. However, the evidence linking vitamin D deficiency to a range of conditions unconnected to bone health, such as heart disease and multiple sclerosis, is inconclusive.
