Orange County residents saying ‘no thanks’ to fluoride
ORANGE COUNTY, CA — Some county residents here are taking measures to reduce their exposure to the fluoride that was recently added to the water supply, a recent Orange County Register story reported.
County resident Blythe Fair said in the story, “I feel bad that there isn't a choice – there isn’t a way around being poisoned.” Among other things, Fair said she has been practicing Jin Shin Jyutsu to strengthen her bones and has changed the way she showers to limit exposure.
Resident Chris Sullivan will install a $500 activated alumina system to remove fluoride. “The people I have talked to and met with are not ‘delusional’ nor ‘fringe element,’ but educated, conscientious and often prominent members of our community,” Sullivan said in the story.
Terry Jakel made a similar move and installed a $200 reverse osmosis (RO) system. “Government shouldn’t be involved in dictating what they think is good for our health. We should have a choice of what we want to consume,” Jakel said in the story.
Cliff Christie, sales coordinator at Culligan Water of Orange County, said that a week before the fluoride was added, his phone was going "crazy" with calls.
Chris MacKnight, president of Water By Design, said he has had 10 inquiries about fluoride-removal systems, and others have called to see if their RO systems can remove fluoride.
The California Department of Public Health said in October it advises dentists to stop using fluoride supplements for a year so that patients are not exposed to more fluoride than necessary.
