not to mention, Municipal City Water Supplies (a.k.a. - your tap water)
PEOPLE - STOP POISONING YOURSELVES!
"Only about 5% of the world's population has fluoridated water supplies and more than 50% of those are in North America. Fluoride has been labeled a banned substance due to its toxic nature, or has been rejected or stopped due to lack of safety data in Austria, Belgium, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Sweden, and Switzerland.""Fluoride is a byproduct of the aluminum, steel, cement, copper and nuclear weapons manufacturing industries. What they add to our water is hydrofluoric acid which is extremely corrosive and is classified as a "contact poison"."
a) Low-income families are least able to avoid fluoridated water. Due to the high costs of buying bottled water or expensive water filters, low-income households will be least able to avoid fluoride once it's added to the water. As a result, low-income families will be least capable of following ADA’s recommendation that infants should not receive fluoridated water. This may explain why African American children have been found to suffer the highest rates of disfiguring dental fluorosis in the US. (47)
b) Low-income families at greater risk of fluoride toxicity. In addition, it is now well established that individuals with inadequate nutrient intake have a significantly increased susceptibility to fluoride’s toxic effects. (48-51) Since nutrient deficiencies are most common in low-income communities, and since diseases known to increase susceptibility to fluoride are most prevalent in low-income areas (e.g. end-stage renal failure), it is likely that low-income communities will be at greatest risk from suffering adverse effects associated with fluoride exposure. According to Dr. Kathleen Thiessen, a member of the National Research Council's review of fluoride toxicity: “I would expect low-income communities to be more vulnerable to at least some of the effects of drinking fluoridated water.""
WHY WOULD ANYBODY WHO KNEW THIS USE THIS?
- Little or no effect on decay prevention in humans
- Banned by the FDA
- Can cause fluorosis (pitting and cracking of the teeth)
- Linked to and found to cause:
- Depletes energy reserves
- Leads to breakdown of collagen in bone, tendon, muscle, skin, cartilage, lungs, kidney and trachea
- Confuses the immune system and causes it to attack the body's own tissues - increases tumor growth rate in cancer prone individuals
- Inhibits antibody formation in the blood
- Depresses thyroid activity
- Promotes development of bone cancer
- Causes premature aging of the human body
- Contents of a family size tube of fluoridated toothpaste is enough to kill a 25 pound child
- Fluoride consumption by human beings increases the general cancer death rate

"Water Fluoridation - The Facts [LIES MIXED IN WITH BITS OF TRUTH]
Tooth decay is a preventable disease [TRUE - WITH PROPER ORAL CARE] . It is caused by the action of oral bacteria and enzymes on sugars and carbohydrates beneath the plaque. The acids dissolve the tooth enamel, and allow the bacteria to penetrate the tooth. Tooth decay is the most common chronic disease known to humankind. More than 90 out of every 100 South Africans [MISLEADING - THIS IS TYPICAL OF THE ENTIRE GLOBAL POPULATION] experience some tooth decay by the time they reach adulthood.""Fluoride increases the resistance of the enamel of the teeth to attack by acid [LIE - FLUORIDE DESTROYS ENAMEL]. Surveys have shown that most people in South Africa do not know what fluoride or water fluoridation is [MISLEADING - HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW THAT FLUORIDE IS AN EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT IN RAT POISON AND PESTICIDE?]. They also do not realise that fluoride is a natural constituent of water supplies [MISLEADING - SO IS ARSENIC AND LEAD - ALSO KNOWN TO BE POISONOUS TOXINS] and that water fluoridation is simply the process of topping up something, which is there already, but at insufficient levels [MISLEADING - INSUFFICIENT LEVELS, IN THE CASE OF HARMFUL THINGS IN OUR WATER, IS ACTUALLY GOOD!]."
"This booklet has been produced by the National Fluoridation Committee of the Department of Health, to give health workers more information about fluoridation, so that they may in turn help people understand the benefits that water fluoridation can bring [LIE - FLUORIDATION HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH KEEPING THE POPULATION HEALTHY - SO, WHAT IS THE TRUTH?]."
GOT YOUR ATTENTION?
THERE IS SOMETHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!
The Best Oral Hygiene. Period.
ya, I know, this is OLD news. Can't be nobody buying fluoride toothpaste anymore, right?
