Strictly from memory: Was not Vitamin D routinely added to margarine in the UK since WWII to prevent rickets?
I seem to remember that immigrants from India were getting rickets due to using ghee rather than margarine, as their pigmentation did not allow their skin to manufacture enough D.

My information may be nearly 40 years out of date, but may be worth checking.
