Just to point out one effect -- virtually all need for orthodontia would be eliminated if we got enough D from prenatal period on.

While Cod Liver Oil may be terrific and all, and vitamins are a Good Thing, this statement is suspect, IMO. If you inherit a small mouth from your mother and large teeth from your father, no amount of vitamin D is going to make your teeth turn out straight.

Ironically, it was a dentist who accumulated data to the contrary. Nutrition during periods of physical develop does indeed influence genetic expression. You may have seen several references/links to Dr. Weston A. Price on this thread, his work makes for a very interesting read.
