Vitamin deficiencies remain common globally Unless severe they are often clinically unrecognized yet even mild deficiency may have significant adverse consequences Vitamin deficiencies affect all ages The groups most susceptible to vitamin deficiencies are pregnant and lactating women and young children because of their relatively high needs for these compounds and susceptibilities to their absence These include death from infectious diseases anemia death during pregnancy or childbirth and impaired cognition and physical development The effects of vitamin deficiencies are related to the biochemical roles they play
