Would prescribing calcium salt to treat the primary bone problem in scurvy?

Explanation:

Scurvy is a disease that causes weakness, gum disease, changes to hair, and bleeding from the skin, and weak bones. This is caused strictly from a Vitamin C deficiency and can thud be treated/cured by implementing more vitamin C into your diet. Calcium Salt is a supplement that can help with the primary bone problem in Scurvy but is only a small inclusion in vitamin C and will not treat Scurvy. As mentioned previously incorporating more Vitamin C into your diet will treat/cure all symptoms of Scurvy including bone problem.
