Worrying isn't it ?.
Must admit to being a bit of a choccie monster around 9pm ,love sugar in my tea but have recently switched to sweetening it with honey.My personal favourite is peppermint tea with a nice dollop of honey.Yet ,I cannot stand honey on it's own.
Also ,be very careful with anything that contains Sorbitol ,it can have a rather nasty side effect if you have too much of it.
Well ,Amenity ,after all the racing around yesterday at the school ,I did succumb to TWO choccie bars my nerves demanded it !!!
The Government has commissioned scientists to test river water at intake points where it is abstracted for human consumption, The Independent can reveal. They will also test drinking water after it has been through the water-treatment cycle.
Under a pilot project to begin next year, supplies will be examined for about five of the most common and potentially dangerous prescription drugs. The experts will meet over the next few weeks to decide which drugs to look for and where testing should be carried out. However, an insider said this was likely to be at selected sites on the river Thames because its water-catchment area covered the most densely populated part of the country.
Powerful anti-cancer drugs are of particular concern as they can be excreted unaltered from the body into the sewerage system. They are thought to be potentially dangerous because they are highly toxic to dividing cells, are easily dissolved in water and are difficult to destroy by conventional water-treatment techniques.
