A study on food additives being responsible for increasing heart disease risk seems to ignore that the foods in question are ultra processed and in themselves unhealthy and the people consuming them have lifestyles that increase their risk of disease.

Your Calls and Comments:

• Do we need to take multivitamin supplements?
• A grandmother is absolved of her guilt feeding her grandchildren ham sandwiches after friends and family chastised her for using processed meat.
• Intestinal Blastocyst infection that has not responded to treatment. What are the next steps?
• Treatment and management of atrial flutter.
