Earlier this year, the Lac La Ronge Indian Band hired a doctor to investigate Vitamin C deficiency among residents of northern Saskatchewan.

The doctor would conduct 50 vitamin C blood tests over a span of several months.

Of those 50 tests, 27 were found to be deficient while 10 more showed low Vitamin C levels.

MBC News chats with LLRIB Chief Tammy Cook-Searson on the matter.
