Scientists warn too much of flaxseed 'could cause cyanide poisoning'Flaxseed contains a naturally occurring compound that can produce cyanide gas as it degrades.

NHS says sepsis monitoring system has saved hundreds of livesTrials of digital alert technology had ‘major impact’ on deadly form of blood poisoning I am keen to see this published academically after robust peer review. Deaths of septic shock in the under-45s from 60% to 10%? This sounds like it is from the 'too good to be true' department and rather consistent with messaging around sepsis from certain quarters. Perhaps PRFitzsimmons might clarify if this is an accurate quote? 'In some cases it would have been impossible to make a diagnosis of sepsis without the help of our digital system'. My trust uses one of these awful electronic systems. In some cases it forces clinicians to prescribe antibiotics for patients they know nothing about or that clearly don't have sepsis just to get rid of the insane pop-up notifications.
