UK - Fluoride debate made simple
Fluoride debate made simple

Pecket Well,
IN response to the letter by David Sutherland (Your say September 7) and the previous letter by Barbara Sutcliffe (August 27, "Dennis is boxed into a corner").
I have previously answered Barbara Sutcliffe's questions adequately, particularly by quoting an article in the Farmers Guardian in 1982 concerning the fluoride poisoning of an entire herd of cattle at Rawmarsh near Sheffield resulting from a high fluoride intake derived from both hay meadows and pastures. For some reason best known to the editor, that passage was deleted from my letter.
At the time of recording a conversation with the farmer, Reg Ellis, a former German prisoner of war who had settled in Britain joined in the conversation and related how a neighbouring farmer who like Reg Ellis had accepted sewage sludge containing a high fluoride content from the Old Yorkshire Water Authority to use as what he had considered to be organic manure, was directed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food to destroy his entire crop of cabbage which had grown exceedingly well.
Reg Ellis had the sludge delivered in September 1976 and by 1977 his entire herd of cattle had either died or had to be destroyed. The WYA settled his claim out of court and Mr Ellis would not reveal the amount but Farmers Guardian believed it to be in excess of £20,000 and Mr Ellis was so pleased with the settlement he told me and my two companions that they could poison his cattle again anytime.
The media has been putting out misinformation for decades, quoting the so-called experts of health authorities who simplistically and repeatedly claim that "fluoride is safe and effective as one part per million."
Donald Sutherland asks why people living in Northumberland and other areas where fluoride occurs naturally and in regions where it has been artificially fluoridated for 40 years have not been affected with the ailments that I have mentioned?
The simple answer to that question is that they have, but the Health Service has been attempting to conceal it by instructing pathology labs not to examine urine, blood or other biological specimens for fluoride levels, particularly in cases of paediatric illness or sudden infant deaths.
Let me make this simple for both these ill-informed advocates of fluoride to understand. In the case of most, if not all prescription drugs, good doctors and vets do not prescribe the same amount of drug for a baby as they might for an adult, due to the much lower body weight.
Likewise a vet would not administer the same amount of an anthelmintic to worm a corgi as he would to a St Bernard or Newfoundland, otherwise he would kill the dog as well as the worms.
