Canada - Reader Letter: Keep fluoride out of drinking water

Re: Health unit wants return of fluoridation, by Doug Schmidt, June 7.

There have been a great number of studies done on the effects of fluoridation of drinking water, Many are conducted by labs paid for by fluoride lobbyists and dental lobbyists. These are less than impartial studies.

A 2007 review by the British Medical Journal stated that “there have been no randomized trials of water fluoridation,” which is currently standard for all drugs. This alone should stop any further use of this policy of a blanket drug program until further independent and randomized studies are complete.

The effects on teeth can be proven minimally beneficial. On the other side of the coin fluoride as a neurotoxin has also been proven to affect the brain to a degree.

We as a society can continue to brush our teeth and stay more vigilant in our fight to keep our teeth clean. But a damaged brain is a damaged brain, something this writer is not willing to chance. So, until fluoride has been vigorously and thoroughly tested as per any other drug, please keep it out of my water. I like my water clear, clean, cool, and chemical free.
