The disturbing story recently resurfaced in a wave of viral TikTok videos.
Scientists are searching for a group of women who were fed radioactive chapatis in the 1960s as part of a ‘deeply troubling’ medical experiment into the absorption of iron.
Many of the women exposed to radioactive substances had gone to their GP for help with minor health issues, such as migraines. This sparked concern about widespread anaemia in the UK’s South Asian community. After consuming the bread, the women were taken to have their radiation levels measured at the Atomic Energy Research Establishment at Harwell in Oxfordshire, to determine how much iron had been absorbed.
