Rickets is caused due to Calcium and/or Vitamin D deficiency.

Proper Calcium intake and Vitamin D synthesis will cure Rickets.

Calcium is needed to maintain and build bones. Vitamin D helps in synthesizing Calcium.

Vitamin D can be obtained from Sunlight exposure.

About 30 minutes of exposure to Sunlight twice a week is enough.

Minimum Calcium intake should be 13 mg/kg of body weight.

Most common source of Calcium is Milk. 1 average glass of Milk contains about 250 mg

Calcium.
