#RareDiseaseDay2026: “think of zebras (rare diseases) when you hear hoofbeats.” On Feb 28, we wear stripes to recognize patients with rare diseases and support rare disease research in CRI and the McDermott Center at UT Southwestern. Thanks to the Rare Disease CoE for all you do for these patients.

According to the textbooks, we lost the ability to make vitamin C because our diet meant that we didn't need it. But studies in animals suggest it had an unexpected benefit.
The real reason why we lost the ability to make vitamin C
The textbooks say our ancestors lost the ability to make vitamin C because we didn't need it, but the loss may have protected us from some parasites
