Title: Fluoridation
Post by: LePatron7 on November 29, 2013, 09:00:54 pm
I was unaware there was so much info on fluoride being so toxic. When I originally eliminated it from my drinking water I did it just because I thought it was "a bad chemical." However this website shows there's a lot more to it than it just being "bad." The science actually shows it's neuro-toxic and has many other negative effects.

In 1965 I was 19 and became a member of the "Swiss Romande Association for Public Health" which used to fight against pesticides, vaccinations and chemicals in food, especially fluoride. It was distributed to school children in pills, incorporated in tap water in some towns and already present in toothpastes. The aluminum industry had found a convenient way to get rid of such a toxic byproduct. >:

The history of fluoride supplementation and the tactics used by the aluminum industry to push pro-fluoridation legislation makes an interesting read. Many sources available.

Iguana, I had you pictured as younger.
The area where I now live, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, has very few communities that are fluoridated. I think two. The municipal water is not bad at all but we still use our filter from Ottawa.
Fluoride is bad news. I am very glad it's not here. Funny, PPL are like sheep and can be convinced that the government knows better. They don't notice the warning on toothpaste not to swallow as it is toxic.
