@ZubyMusic So true

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Most people don't even know there's a difference between folate and folic acid.
Folate is the natural form of vitamin B9 found in foods. Folic acid is the synthetic form that's being added to much of the UK's non-wholemeal wheat flour.

We often don't notice gradual change until we're looking back.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

What do you think we'll look back on in 30 years and ask,
"Why did we ever think that was normal?"

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Curiosity is one of the healthiest habits we can develop.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Progress begins the moment we stop assuming "normal" automatically means "best."

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Future generations may be surprised by what we accepted simply because it was convenient.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Every generation has blind spots.
The difficult part is recognising them while you're living through them.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Maybe it will be ultra-processed food.
Maybe it will be the amount of sugar hidden in everyday products.
Or maybe it will be something we haven't even questioned yet.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Health isn't built by one meal.
It's built by thousands of small decisions.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

One day we'll look back at today's ultra-processed food environment and wonder why we accepted it for so long.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

The goal isn't perfection.
It's awareness.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

I'm not saying every ultra-processed food is the same.
I'm saying we should ask more questions than we currently do.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

We spend hours comparing protein.
Almost nobody compares the ingredient list.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

The crowd sees the hours on the court.. The result was decided by many years of invisible habits. Congratulations @DjokerNole

Whatever your view on folic acid fortification, one principle should unite everyone: the public deserves a voice in what is added to the food we all eat.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Folate is the natural form of vitamin B9 found in foods. Folic acid is the synthetic form that's being added to much of the UK's non-wholemeal wheat flour.

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

The UK is adding synthetic folic acid to most flour. The aim is to reduce birth defects, a worthy goal. But there is still debate about whether synthetic folic acid is the best form for everyone, particularly for people with certain MTHFR gene variants. Should that debate be getting more attention?

[Gillian McKeith @GillianMcKeith]

Are we really fans of folic acid being added to food? Apparently that is the plan by the end of the year. Probably not… for all kinds of reasons. What do you think?
