Let parents provide fluoride to children
Honolulu Star-Advertiser27 Feb 2017
A recent comment suggested that parents give their children fluoride drops as opposed to dumping the chemical in our drinking water. That is exactly what I did, and my now 33-yearold son has never had a single cavity in his life. Prescribing drops could become part of a child’s medical checkups. It’s a simple solution that allows parents to control what is going into their children’s bodies.
It seems inevitable that some people will drink a lot of water, and others almost none at all. Adding fluoride to drinking water will not regulate an individual’s intake of fluoride and seems illogical at best.
