UK Against Fluoridation

USA - Letter

I read with interest Toni Hooper's letter about the recent water board meeting in Bay Minette concerning the addition of fluoride in the water supply.
She states that one of the board members informed her of some of the negative effects of fluoridation. Hooper remains skeptical and asks that if such information were true, why is it not common knowledge and, why public officials would not then be culpable. Because of her concern for children to have healthy teeth, she wishes to make it illegal for utility boards to cease fluoridation.
The fluoride in our water supply is a toxic industrial waste product. The reason that this fact is not well known is because there has long been collusion between the American Dental Association, the government and the suppliers to suppress the truth.
Whether fluoride really has an effect in preventing tooth decay is debatable, but it is at the cost of accumulating in the brain and the bones, causing or contributing to degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, bone cancer, Parkinson's and Lou Gehrig's as well as fluorosis, infertility and premature aging.
In studies by the National Cancer Institute (Burk and Yiamouyiannis), The California Tumor Registry and many others, cancer deaths were found to be from 10 percent to 40 percent higher in cities with fluoridated water than in non-fluoridated cities.
That fluoride is toxic is evident by simply reading the warnings on a tube of toothpaste.
For accurate information about the subject, I recommend the book "The Fluoride Deception" by Christopher Bryson, the September 2004 "Blaylock Wellness Report" by Dr. Russell Blaylock (board certified neurosurgeon, health practitioner, author and lecturer), and Dr. Paul Connett's Web site www.fluoridealert.org. Connett is a specialist in environmental chemistry and toxicology.
Fluoride is neither safe nor effective. If Ms. Hooper and others remain unconvinced, they have the option of taking fluoride tablets. Those of us who are concerned about the toxic effects would prefer not to have fluoride forced upon us. It is a substance that is not easily removed from our water but requires expensive water filters. People who live in poverty cannot afford them, nor can they afford to drink bottled water.
