#ThrowbackThursday – folic acid and breast cancer awareness

Which of the following makes more sense to you, particularly if you’re a woman? Folic acid fortified refined carbs or selective use of folate supplements to reduce risk of neural tube defects in an unborn child?

And what about mammograms or a combination of manual breast checks and pain-free, non-invasive thermal imaging?

These are the issues we pick up this #TBT.

Plus, in our weekly news, celebrity reactions to the Dewayne Johnson v Monsanto cancer case, a new GM potato whistleblower (remember what they did to Dr Árpád Pusztai?), further scientific challenge to vitamin D science, and cannabis – both recreational (in Canada) and medical (in UK)!

In health, naturally
