27.02.2012

A record number of new legal highs were identified last year, top British scientists have told Newsbeat.

The scientists - who've advised the government before - told Newsbeat that more than 41 new substances were detected across Europe in 2011, breaking the previous year's tally. They are mainly from China and being bought by UK users over the internet.
