Pregnant women who eat large amounts of chips and crisps could be harming their babies as much as smokers, a new European study suggests.
Women and babies from England, Denmark, Greece, Norway and Spain were tested for levels of a potentially toxic chemical found in fried potatoes.
It found babies from Bradford, who represented England, had the highest levels and lower birth weights.
The study was led by the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology.
