There are really no dietary B vitamin deficiencies in the UK. Most B vitamin deficiency is of B12, due to pernicious anaemia. You do come across the odd vegan who doest not know how to properly include B vitamins in the diet and comes up low.

Overall the commonest situation when B vitamin supplement are used appropriately ( with excludes the very common abuse of unnecessary vitamins from health food shops by tens of thousands of people each year ) is in Alcoholism. B vitamin deficiencies in the alcoholic result from changes in the gastrointestinal tract that lead to interference with the absorption and utilisation of these vitamins.

Is the word 'vitaminC' countable or not?

First, "vitamin C" is two words, not one word. And second, it is not countable. If you were referring to vitamin C tablets, for instance, those would be countable (for instance there might be 100 in a bottle). But "vitamin C" itself can be measured (for example, in milligrams) but not counted.
