fluoride. Toxic waste added straight to your water supply
Ionic
fluoride is not the same as the organic fluorine that contributes
to bone and tooth health. Organic fluorine is present in
a great many foods and, as it is protein bound, is poorly
absorbed. Ionic fluoride is, in contrast, rapidly
and completely absorbed by the stomach.
Even the enthusiasts recognise that fluoride is toxic at
VERY small doses.
The
history of fluoride
The concept of fluoridation (adding fluoride to foods and
water) has been with us for decades. Some clever scientists
noticed that organic fluorine is required with calcium for
healthy teeth and bones.
Extrapolating
this, the scientists decided that more fluorine may mean
more healthy teeth,
(although they couldn't prove this) and suggested that water
supplies
be "enhanced" with ionic fluoride, which is not the same
compound and has different health effects!
Coincidentally, the scientists worked for large paper and
aluminium manufacturers, whose industrial processes produce
large amounts of....you guessed it, fluoride!
fluoride is toxic waste. The ONLY reason
it is added to water is to save the manufacturers from having
to get rid
of it. fluoride
and dental health
Organic
fluorine, along with calcium and a little bit of help
from molybdenum, forms calcium fluorapatite, which
is recognised as the mineral element of teeth and bones.
Ionic
fluoride does not contribute to this process and instead
causes the over stimulation of the parathyroid glands, resulting
in abnormal bone growth, calcification of tendons and ligaments
and interrupts the process which generates energy in cells.
Symptoms
of fluoride poisoning (flurosis)
Mottled teeth
Osteoporosis
Bone spurs (abnormal bony projections)
Calcification of tendons and ligaments
Chronic fatigue (may be implicated in chronic fatigue syndrome)
Flurosis may be fatal
But
hasn't fluoride been shown to reduce tooth decay?
No.
Numerous
studies, mostly sponsored by the (enormously successful)
pro-fluoride lobby have been undertaken in an effort to support
the "fluoride hypothesis". Some of these studies have involved
the fluoridation of water supplies in whole cities to study
the "benefits" over non-fluoridated cities.
The results?
Non-fluoridated cities had significantly fewer dental caries!
Needless
to say, the fluoridation lobby then dismissed these results
as "irrelevant" in the face of the "obvious" benefits
of fluoridation.
We have yet to hear of ANY health benefit from fluoridation.
The only benefit that is obvious is that instead
of having to pay to get rid of their toxic waste,
paper and aluminium manufacturers can sell it for
use in water supplies and toothpastes.
This is criminal! Normal amounts of fluoride in the diet
None
at all! Sources of dietary fluoride
Ionic fluoride is not present in foods naturally
Conclusion
fluoride is not a normal constituent of the diet. It should
not therefore be added artificially to the diet. If you want
to boost your bone and joint health, take come calcium and
maybe boost your seafood intake. Do NOT, under any
circumstances, drink fluoridated water or use "fluoride" toothpaste.
It is easy to buy fluoride-free
toothpastes, make
sure you do. Back from fluoride to minerals
