Alicia Diaz-Thomas, Pallavi Iyer
Nutritional rickets is a global health problem reflecting both historical and contemporary health disparities arising from racial, ethnic, environmental, and geopolitical circumstances. It primarily affects marginalized populations and can contribute to long-term morbidity. Deficits in bone health in childhood may also contribute to osteomalacia/osteoporosis. Solutions require a global public health approach.
