Vitamin D Deficiency Provides an Instant Solution to Healthcare Reform

New research has found that there is a serious case of Vitamin D deficiency amongst children aged 1 – 21, with three quarters of young African American and Mexican American children with deficiency in Vitamin D. Caucasian children, were also recorded as having 50-60% deficiency despite of their fairer skin and higher production levels of Vitamin D.  Read More About:  Opportunities and Key Players in Clinical Nutrition: The Market for Enteral, Parenteral and Infant Nutrition in the US and EU. 

Vitamin D deficiency is a term normally reserved for children with virtually no Vitamin D in their blood system whatsoever. Instead, scientists prefer to refer to this condition as a Vitamin D “insufficiency.” Vitamin D deficiencies are frighteningly common and tend to exist even though the accepted standards of Vitamin D levels in the blood are artificially low in the first place. In actual fact, when we apply real numbers of the Vitamin D levels required to peak human performance, as many as 90% of American children are chronically deficient in Vitamin D.

Sunlight deficiency remains the primary cause of Vitamin D deficiency in children. You could almost compare the lives of today’s children with those of vampires who sleep all day and stay awake all night in front of televisions, game consoles and computers. Parents don’t help this situation either as they tend to shelter their kids from the sun in various ways; air-conditioned cars, pre-cooled cars and air-conditioned homes. You’d almost think that a little sunlight on their children would be harmful.

Another culprit is the sunscreen industry which promotes and thrives off the propaganda that sunlight is harmful to children who should instead be lathered up in layers of sunscreen lotion before stepping outside the house. The irony is that these same sunscreen lotions are what contain cancer-causing chemicals to begin with.

The final and biggest culprit in the rise of Vitamin D deficiency is the medical establishment. This is because, instead of teaching parents and children about the importance of Vitamin D, the medical establishment seems to have decided to completely ignore the most useful information about this nutrient, and prefer instead to prescribe toxic pharmaceutical drugs to treat symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency. For example, having sufficient levels of Vitamin D in your system means that you will not require osteoporosis drugs as the Vitamin D deficiency is what helps to cause osteoporosis in the first place. Expectedly, you wouldn’t expect Big Pharma to join in on the Vitamin D promotion campaign as this would wipe out their osteoporosis drug profits.
