A new pill containing all the goodness of the recommended five-a-day portions of fruit and veg could change the eating habits of millions. The makers claim each capsule is packed with the vitamins and essential *nutrients of a kilo of fresh produce. Athletes are already said to be clamouring for the wonder pills, which have been endorsed by the German, Swiss and Dutch Olympic teams.

It is an astounding claim that flies in the face of decades of nutritional wisdom. Eating sweets might actually stop your child from getting fat, researchers say.

'Stunning inequities' in end-of-life care, report says
An independent review is calling for a set of universal standards for care of the dying after uncovering "stunning inequities" in provision in England. The inquiry, requested last year by the government, says the current system is confusing and inconsistent. Its report proposes a set of guarantees on what the state will provide, and a new payment system to help more people die at home rather than in hospital.
