Key Takeaways

  • Avoid foods fortified with synthetic folic acid, especially if you are not pregnant, as it may increase prostate cancer risk and other health issues.
  • Consider signing the petition to ensure access to non-fortified flour in the UK if you oppose mandatory folic acid fortification.
  • Opt for natural folate sources (like leafy greens) rather than synthetic folic acid supplements, as synthetic folic acid can block natural folate uptake.
  • If supplementing, choose methylfolate (the natural form of B9) instead of synthetic folic acid, especially during pregnancy.

Supplements & Protocols Mentioned

  • Methylfolate: The natural form of vitamin B9, recommended over synthetic folic acid.

Notable Quotes

“You definitely don’t force feed an entire population a synthetic drug without their consent.”
