[[Vitamin D]] deficiency is common worldwide, and the incidence is increasing in the recent years. In the US, [[vitamin D]] deficiency is more prevalent among non-white ethnic groups.  The prevalence is different based on different laboratory methods and the cut-off for the [[vitamin D]] deficiency.

===Prevalence===
* According to [[Institute of Medicine]] (IOM), based on the [[National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey]] (NHANES) 2003–2006, there is an overall 18.8% prevalence of serum 25OHD concentrations below 40 nmol/L in the US. <ref name="urlProportion of the Population Above and Below 40 nmol/L Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations and Cumulative Distribution of Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations: United States and Canada - Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D - NCBI Bookshelf">{{cite web |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK56054/ |title=Proportion of the Population Above and Below 40 nmol/L Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations and Cumulative Distribution of Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations: United States and Canada - Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D - NCBI Bookshelf |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref>

* However, data from the [[National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys]] (NHANES) in 2001-2006 shows that one-quarter were at risk of [[vitamin D]] inadequacy (serum 25OHD 30–49 nmol/L), and 8% were at risk of [[vitamin D]] deficiency (serum 25OHD less than 30 nmol/L). <ref name="NHANES Vitamin D"> Looker AC, Johnson CL, Lacher DA, et al.

Vitamin D deficiency is common worldwide, and the incidence is increasing in the recent years. In the US, vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent among non-white ethnic groups. The prevalence is different based on different laboratory methods and the cut-off for the vitamin D deficiency.
