    meanwhile "Women in hijabs 'need sunlight or risk illness'"

    Muslim women who wear the hijab are at risk of serious illness because they do not get enough sun, doctors have warned.

    They said an alarming number of women who cover their skin are suffering bone deficiencies over a lack of vitamin D.

    “Teenage girls from some minority communities who stick to their family customs have better mental health” because if they choose to follow western ways rather than family customs, the family will make their lives hell and destroy their mental health, and sometimes murder them.
