“Daily Mail reports widespread Vitamin D deficiency amongst British children...and slather them with sunscreen”

Those children are deficient in D but it’s not due to sunscreen. My grandson was born there and lives there and was D deficient due to not enough sun shines there and their milk has no D added like ours does.

Grandson is a tennis player, had lessons all his life and now he is in his teens and has a professional standing in tennis and is on the court every day and still has to take an oil of some kind with D in it - he takes this under doctor care.

It doesn't take a whole lot to do the job. The sunscreen usage keeps out what little might have gotten through. The weather in Britain has not changed. The usage of sunscreen and amount of outside time has.
