Did you know that the UK government is introducing mandatory folic acid fortification of most non-wholemeal wheat flour?
This means synthetic folic acid will be added to a huge range of everyday foods. Many breads, cereals and other products already contain added folic acid, but this policy will extend its reach even further across the food supply.
What concerns me is that so few people seem to be aware this is happening, and the potential health implications it could have for so many people.
I would really encourage you to watch this short video. In it, doctors discuss synthetic folic acid, why they regard it as a drug rather than a food, and why they have concerns about what they describe as the mass medication of an entire population without informed consent.
This is something people should know about and have the opportunity to consider for themselves.
Please take a few minutes to watch the video and read the petition.
I've linked both below.
If you believe people should have the right to choose what is added to their food, please consider signing the petition and sharing this post so more people become aware of what is happening.
