During a news bulletin on Radio 2 this morning I heard:
“The government has ORDERED all bakeries to include folic acid in the dough. This is to help prevent some birth deformities.”
Laudable as that may seem why do some 90% or more of the population have to take medication when they don’t need it?

The government tried it with Fluoride and as far as I know United Utilities do not put Fluoride in the water.

I would add that the bulletin has not been repeated since 0730. Why not?
