Every health problem listed has been associated with Vitamin D deficiency

The percentage of people with low vitamin D has also DOUBLED in a decade

The increased health problem could be due to:

   1) Decreased Vitamin D in Blood
   2) Decreased Vitamin D getting to tissue (due to poor genes)
   3) Some other reason

Have the health problems increased so slowly that,
    like the slowly heated frog, we have not noticed?

Some of the increased health problem incidence might be attributed to an aging population.
But note: Many charts such as Alzheimer's, Parkenson's, Clostridium difficile, etc. are age-compensated.
that is, it is the % increase for that age group, rather than the % increase vs the entire population.
