Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Well it does make sense.. those parents who would worry about it and give their children vitamins would also be those more likely to try and keep their children healthy in other ways, and it makes sense that those with less money would spend it on food not supplements and so would be less likely to use supplements.

Though I'm also not 100% sure that anyone can always get everything they need from their diet. Simply that modern farming practises deplete the soils and while they add back some nutrients, it's not the same as naturally occuring nutrients.

FYI. This study was being discussed on FOX news on Sunday morning. Children who take vitamins under the age of 4 may have fewer allergies.
