There’s a particular mushroom that is an extremely important part of dwarves’ diet. Unbeknownst to them (they don’t have proper nutritional science) it contains bioavailable vitamin D@. Of course the other sapient races have the ability to synthesize D in sunlight, which is simply unavailable to the subterranean dwarves. There has been a natural experiment of sorts where nobles decide to be different and not eat the foods of the commoners. They avoid the mushroom and end up with fragile bones and rickety children. The correlation has been noticed by some though is denied by others.
