(21 posts)Many towns and cities fluoridate their water. The ADA has admitted, after promoting fluoridation for over 50 years, that there is no advantage to ingesting the poison. It only works topically. The great experiment in Europe where they have banned the fluoridation of water, has shown there is no benefit. Fluoride has been shown to interfere with the proper functioning of the thyroid, making us lethargic and fat. It has recently be shown that fluoride crosses the blood/brain barrier, which wasn't known before, resulting in a 7 point drop in IQ. To make things worse, food and beverage processing plants use the local water, bathing us in a sea of fluoride in every commercial beverage and food product we buy. Fluoride cannot be removed from tap water with a simple carbon filter. It requires an expensive reverse osmosis filter. I've had one installed in my office, but it seems to waste 2 gallons of water for each gallon it makes. It shows up on the water bill. So my employees fill up their reusable water containers at my office, which is some improvement over throwing out the plastic bottles, but it is not as good as not poisoning the water in the first place.
