A new immunotherapy regime has shown significant improvements in treatment for head and neck cancer. Meanwhile, exercise is boosting outcomes for colon cancer patients. BBC journalist Philippa Roxby explains what?s been shown in these studies.
Aflatoxins are a toxin produced by a fungi which can be found in crops. They?re having a severe impact on harvests and health including immune suppression, growth stunting and damage to the liver. The BBC?s Sophie Ormiston reports on what?s being done to tackle the problem.
