Fluoride opponents’ argument gains teeth
Wednesday, August 24, 2005
Albert Burgstahler is convinced Lawrence residents have been forced to swallow a giant government mistake for more than 50 years.
“Anybody who drinks more than two or three quarts of water per day may be subject to problems,” said Burgstahler, a professor emeritus of chemistry at Kansas University.
That’s because Lawrence’s water, like that drunk by about 170 million people across the country, is treated with fluoride in an effort to improve dental health. But Burgstahler said he is convinced the additive is more a detriment than a benefit to well being.
