A small number of Coca-Cola , Sprite and Appletiser cans in the UK have been recalled.

It comes after high levels of a chemical by-product from chlorine disinfectants were found in some of the drinks in overseas tests.

Tests revealed "elevated levels" of chlorate, which can cause iodine deficiency in people.

The FSA said there had been a "limited distribution to the UK " of soft drinks containing higher levels.
