Folic Acid Fortification May Be Linked To Increased Colon Cancer Risk

Still think they have any idea of what a "safe" supplement is?
"'Our data provide new evidence that a folate fortification program could be associated with an additional risk of colon cancer,' according to the new report by Dr. Sandra Hirsch and colleagues of University of Chile, Santiago...

Chile is the third country to report an apparent increase in colorectal cancer after introducing a national folic acid fortification program. A 2007 paper suggested increases in colorectal cancer after folic acid fortification was introduced in the United States and Canada in the mid-1990s."
Bet you did not know about the increases in the USA and Canada.

No matter.

Just shows how absolutely clueless the experts are about the consequences of their recommendations.
