I live in Texas and walk outside every day to campus, work, etc yet I had a Vitamin D level of about 12. Normal levels are around 40. Also, saying "darker" skin doesn't single out "black" people. Nobody is trying to lie about anybody. My doctors recommended the blood test for South Asians, Pacific Islanders, and people of African descent that live in temperate climates. I'm taking vitamins and now my levels are back up. -evelyn kjc23, i’m just passing along information from my doctors.
