the best me 6 Posted March 1, 2005 I got Rickets, too. What's up with the "come in fear, facist pigs?" at the top? I knew that Old English class I took would come in handy someday. My translation may not be entirely correct, but honestly, I got a little nervous and was afraid to surf around in there! Heebie Jeebies, but cool test!

vinesqueen 2 Posted March 1, 2005 Rickets Synonyms and related keywords: infantile osteomalacia, juvenile osteomalacia, rachitis, vitamin-D deficiency, skeletal deformity, growth disturbance, hypocalcemia, tetany Background: Rickets is defined as the failure of osteoid to calcify in a growing person or animal. Failure of osteoid to calcify in the adult is called osteomalacia. Rickets occurs when the metabolites of Vitamin D are deficient. Less commonly, dietary deficiency of Calcium or phosphorus may produce rickets. Vitamin D (cholecalciferol [vitamin D-3], a steroid compound) is formed in the skin under the stimulus of ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light was the only significant source of Vitamin D until early in the 20th century when ergosterol (vitamin D-2), contained in fish liver oil or as an irradiated plant steroid, was discovered. Ergosterol can be taken orally with good effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
