USA - More than lip service to fluoride benefits
More than lip service to fluoride benefits
June 30, 2008
This is in response to "Fluoride's glory may be cresting; Opposition to chemical presence in water supply gains voice in the city where it all started" (News, June 23), by Tribune correspondent Tim Jones. More than 60 years of research, practical experience and scientific evidence has consistently indicated that fluoridation of community water supplies is a safe and effective way to prevent tooth decay. This is why two-thirds of the U.S. population, including Chicago, consumes fluoridated water and why the American Dental Association, along with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other prominent groups have long advocated for fluoridation.
Peer-reviewed, scientific studies show that water fluoridation continues to be effective in reducing dental decay by 20 percent to 40 percent, even with widespread availability of fluoride from other sources, such as toothpaste.
Fluoridation of community water supplies is the single most effective public health measure to prevent tooth decay. The CDC has proclaimed community water fluoridation as one of the10 great public health achievements of the 20th Century, and we agree.

The Nazis were the first to use fluoride, which attacks the hypothalamus in the brain, to contaminate the water supplies in the concentration camps making the holocaust victims helplessly submissive. This is the real reason why they want to use it on us. The lie that water fluoridation is for dental health is a dangerous lie. Alan Johnson Health Secretary is a very dangerous psychopath and should be arrested. Do a google search on "fluoride causes". There are even plans to put taxes on non-fluoride toothpastes!
