Are you aware of the health dangers of fluoride? Fluoridation (adding fluoride chemicals into public water supplies) began 68 years ago in hopes to eliminate tooth decay, lower dental bills, and put dentists out of business. But just the opposite happened. The creation of fluoridated dental products and tooth decay have become multi-billion dollar industries.

Many countries including China, Austria, Belgium, Finland, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Hungary, Japan, and nearly all of Europe have banned water fluoridation. However, the addition of fluoride in water supplies, juice, soda, wine, coffee, soups, processed foods and baby formulas is widespread in the Americas.

Fluoride enters our system through multiple means:
- Toothpaste with fluoride
- Water
- Baby formula
- Foods cooked with fluoride
- Canned soup, or restaurant-made soups
- Food cooked in Teflon cookware
- Coffee and tea made with fluoridated water
- Packaged and processed foods
- Fruit juice from a box/glass container
- Soda pop and soft drinks
- Beer and wine
- Anesthetics
- Cigarettes

Dangers of fluoride:
1. Known to cause dental fluorosis (defect of tooth enamel caused by fluoride’s interference with developing teeth) – dental fluorosis is characterized by yellow or mottled teeth.

2. Associated with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. It has also been associated with low IQ and mental retardation in children.

3. Known to cause skeletal fluorosis (crippling bone disease – aka. chronic joint pain, very similar to what those with arthritis experience). Could also be the cause of rising numbers in arthritis cases.

4. Impairs activity of the thyroid gland. Fluoride can depress activity of the thyroid and can result in an under-active thyroid, a common cause of obesity.

5. Disrupts normal hormone function. Fluoride can reduce melatonin levels (because fluoride likes to accumulate in the pineal gland), leading to disturbances in sleep-wake cycles and chronic insomnia. Fluoride also destroys the male reproductive system.

6. Interferes with brain function; interferes with learning and behaviour and another cause of Alzheimer’s disease.
