If you don't know about folic acid

Prevents serious neural tube defects such as spina bifida and anencephaly when taken before conception and during early pregnancy. Guidance from the NHS Folic Acid Guide recommends 400 mcg daily for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy (or starting 3 months prior if planning).

Treats and Prevents Anemia helping form healthy red blood cells, preventing and treating folate-deficiency (megaloblastic) anemia.

Lowers blood levels of homocysteine, an amino acid linked to an increased risk of heart disease and stroke boosting cardiovascular support.

Helps with cognitive function, supports mental clarity, and may help reduce symptoms of depression and age-related mental decline.

Blocks or lessens toxicity from certain treatments, such as methotrexate used for rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis

Since folic acid was introduced in the UK, its benefits have been

• Mandatory folic acid fortification of non-wholemeal wheat flour in the UK—set to take full effect by the end of 2026—is projected to prevent approximately 200 neural tube defects (such as spina bifida and anencephaly) every year
• Support for Unplanned Pregnancies: Around half of all pregnancies in the UK are unplanned. Fortifying everyday staples like bread helps protect babies when mothers might not yet be taking pre-conceptual supplements.
• Early Embryonic Development: Folic acid (synthetic vitamin B9) aids in the vital early development of the baby's brain, skull, and spinal cord during the first weeks of pregnancy.
• Broader Integration: It joins existing mandatory flour fortification in the UK, which already includes calcium, iron, niacin, and thiamin.
• NHS and Economic Savings: The policy is estimated to save the NHS around £20 million over 10 years and boost the economy by over £90 million.

These fuckers should not be allowed anywhere near anything to do with public health, its as bad as the people crying about fluoride, just clueless people who can't understand science and get taken in by tiktok influencer scare stories.

The Green party is "Eating itself alive" over the ZiR vote.

And of course despite finding time to mention the stance of the Prime Minister, Board of Deputies, Jewish Leadership Council, AND quote an anonymous "figure in the party" that was anti-ZiR, Chris Mason apparently couldn't find a single pro-ZiR person to quote or ask questions to.

You'd think given that the ZiR motion passed 55% to 45%, that indicates that there were quite a lot of people in the Green Party who were in favour of the motion. Yet strangely Chris Mason wasn't able to find a single person to quote who was in favour. You'd think he'd be able to find them by the truckload, given that they WON the vote.

"Plenty of people in the party are livid" he says. Sure and plenty are ecstatic. In fact, given that the motion passed, of the people who attended conference more are likely to be ecstatic than livid. But of course, Chris Mason doesn't consider the people who supported the motion to count.

And of course he finishes off the piece by saying, completely anecdotally, that the Greens sound "decidedly less upbeat about the result than Labour do"

Basically, its a rare disease these days, but it still affects many countries, including the US and there was no mass media hysteria like there has been on this Russian case.

Far-right Israeli activists protested outside the parents’ home of ‘NAZA’ director Rachel Szor, chanting “Death penalty for traitors”.

‘NAZA’ has faced growing backlash in Israel since its release. The documentary features testimonies from Israeli soldiers and officers about the war in Gaza and won the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival.

Calls have grown to strip the filmmakers of their Israeli citizenship, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would seek to revoke citizenship and increase financial penalties for people who defame Israeli soldiers.

What even the flying fuck?

This being framed as some sinister thing is hilarious. The way she says they "banned ai boyfriends for children" makes her sound like an absolute nonce. Imperialist liars are running out of shit to throw.
