The Girl Against Fluoride
18 February at 12:38 ยท
On top of the fluoride chemicals added to our drinking water, the excess of the chemicals, known as trihalomethanes (THMs), has been present in many public water supplies for years, and is caused by chlorine, added to purify water, mixing with organic matter such as leaves, timber, and peat. Long-term exposure to THMs include an increased risk of certain cancers, such as bladder and colon; reproductive problems such as miscarriages, birth defects, and low birth rates; and damage to the heart, lungs, liver, kidney, and central nervous system. The effects are not just from drinking contaminated water; THMs can be absorbed from steam in the air and through the skin from showering and washing.
Drinking water for 400,000 people is contaminated
Drinking water for more than 400,000 people is contaminated with chemicals linked to cancer, but Irish Water has refused to directly inform those affected.
