Cannot say i completly understand this processs or what we will gain but it all seems a bit sinister keeping it under wraps.
Seems the Aussies have been doing it a while....can anyone explain in lay mans terms what they are hoping to gain using this process?
And yes i know it explains in the article but having googled it on different sites still not sure what it is all about.

It is also completely safe. Completely. There is no danger to health. None whatsoever.*
