US Kids deficient in Vitamin D

According to Michal Melamed of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine 70% of US kids have deficient or insufficient Vitamin D levels. This confirms what this blogger has been saying for a long time; Supplements are often necessary to maintain adequate levels of many nutrients. Yes, Kids don't spend as much time outdoors where UV light exposure causes the body to produce Vitamin D and many don't drink as much milk but the fact is, given the fact most folks just don't eat right enough of the time supplements are a good way to stay healthy.
