UK Bedfordshire letter
Fluoride ‘facts’
I AM compelled to respond to Charles Bailey's recent misleading letter regarding water fluoridation.
I would like to make him aware of the following facts:-
- 90 per cent of England does not have fluoride added to the water supply. Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Continental Europe including Germany, France Italy and Sweden firmly reject this practice.
- Since the beginning of this year EU law does not permit fluoridated water to be added to food or drinks.
- The decay rate of 5 year old children in Bedford for 2011/12 showed no increase in comparison to the data produced for earlier years.
- As far as Birmingham is concerned the decay rate of 5-year-old children from disadvantaged families remain the worst in England as per the govt. official report;
- It has been medically documented that eczema and allergies in both children and adults increases in areas of water fluoridation.
- It is the topical application of fluoride that is now considered the effective way of preventing tooth decay. We no longer need to swallow fluoride as previously thought.
- There is no safe, optimal level of fluoride.
We all want clean water as pure as we can get it - that means no fluoride, period.
