Book Description
A comprehensive update on vitamin D deficiency Centuries ago, during theindustrial revolution, rickets, also called 'the English disease', spreadrapidly among city-dwelling poor children and became endemic due tovitamin D deficiency and insufficient access to sunlight. Nowadays itappears to be endemic again as the increase of vitamin D deficiency isparalleling the primacy of breast-feeding in Western societies.Breastfeeding, nutritional status and dark skin are the main risk factorsfor rickets or 'rachitis' as is the correct medical term. Rickets is achildhood disorder and the basis for understanding the disease is rootedin the concept of mineral metabolism and its control mechanisms in thegrowing fetus, infant and child. As it is now understood that rickets isnot only caused by vitamin D deficiency, it has to be kept in mind thatvitamin D and calcium deficiency is prevalent in developing countries aswell as in affluent societies, where children and their mothers are notexposed to as much sunlight as they need. The rapid growth in molecularbiology has been exemplified in the application of subcellulartechnologies to study vitamin D in human and animal models.

It will be of special interest to pediatricians,endocrinologists and health care specialists who work with children atrisk for the disease. ... Read more
