Women with darker skin are most at risk because it takes their bodies longer to produce the vitamin.

A Department for Health spokesman said: ‘For ethnic groups there is an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency.
Studies have shown low levels in Asian women in the United Kingdom – particularly among those who cover most of their skin for cultural reasons.’...
