The cost-of-living squeeze and poor diets are putting people at a higher risk of developing scurvy, with a case caused by an acute vitamin C deficiency recently treated at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Perth.

Christ people, eat some potatoes or some onions. My diet is pure dogshit and I still manage to not get scurvy. It’s a HARD disease to get. Other nutritional deficiencies are much easier to accidentally come across.
Didn’t know bariatric surgery was a risk factor though, that’s interesting.
