skin disorder
As everyone knows that too much sun can damage your skin from looking at Ms Haversham I wondered the damage no sun can do to your skin. After researching I've discovered that no sun can also as the Sun gives us vitamin D.Vitamin D deficiency can cause rickets in children — in adults it can lead to osteomalacia, where the bones become weak and painful. finding this out made me understand more why Ms Haversham looks so frail.Around 90 per cent of our vitamin D is made in the skin with the help of sunlight — this converts the cholesterol found in every cell in the body into vitamin D. BBC did an article announcing their concern for British people as we dont have that much sun and the health risks which made me think how low Ms Havershams health was for not going out in sunlight in years plus her hygiene level being low as bathing was hard during that peirod of time.
