What are the issues if a person is diagnosed with Vitamin D deficiency and is 29 yrs old ?

OK, I know about sunshine and also Vit D for good strong bones, but a 29 yr old friend was diagnosed and put on a rather expensive prescription for Vitamin D. What are the "problems" associated with low vitamin D beside the sun and bone issue ? THanks
