The 101 on Fluoride
Whether it’s the large quantities of fluoride in the USA’s water or just the good dental care, Americans do seem to have the healthiest and whitest looking teeth above all other nationalities. Well, we can debunk those two as myths right now.
First, Dental care, or at least the access to Dental care in America isn’t has hot as it was a few decades ago and research shows us that fluoride ingestion isn’t all its cracked up to be. Here are some scary facts about flouride from Dr. Mercola:
- US residents drink the most fluoridated water than anyone else in the world
- Although the Dental Fraternity promotes fluoride for your teeth’s health, according to the World Health Association (WHO) those countries that have more fluoride in their water don’t necessarily have less tooth decay
- Studies show that fluoride can cause brain damage, lower IQ in children and other health problems like bone cancer, thyroid disease, dementia and bone fractures, just to name a few
- Fluoride can infiltrate itself naturally into our water supplies by way of air pollution, however, even though Fluoridation advocates use this as their defense, it doesn’t mean that a naturally occurring substance is safe. E.g. Arsenic
- 40% of American Teenagers show signs of dental fluorosis, which is a change in the appearance of tooth enamel
- Fluoridated water is highly risky for infants in that it causes dental fluorosis and reduced IQ scores
- Fluoride supplement benefits have never been proved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
- In many countries, fluoride is added to the water as a medicine and on the flipside many countries ban this procedure, except for America, stating that to add a “medicine” to the public’s water supply is unacceptable and doesn’t give you the right to informed consent
- The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) admits that fluoride is only beneficial if applied topically to the teeth i.e. toothpaste, and drinking fluoride offers little or even no benefit to the teeth
- Disadvantaged Communities suffer the most from dental fluorosis
So, following those sobering and scary facts, what can you do to protect your family against fluorosis? Invest in a Water Filter that removes fluoride.
In conclusion … Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink. That little adage means a lot more now, doesn’t it?
