The majority of white flour, including organic flour, will have to be fortified in the near future.
This may sound like a good move but people with B12 deficiencies, some cancer patients and those with stents are advised to avoid additional folic acid supplementation.
If you feel that people should get to choose if their food is fortified with a synthetic ingredient please sign the petition.
We call on the Government to stop the fortification of flour with synthetic folic acid. Folic acid is a medicine not a food. We believe it is unethical to mass medicate the entire population without their knowledge or consent in the hope that a minority group of people might see a benefit.
