It is used in a highly controversial way to improve population dental health. Brain Cancer StatisticsThe main controversy relates to the addition of fluoride to public water supplies, with some governments mandating the practice and some governments outlawing it. In my view fluoride is a dangerous toxin and is best avoided.
Fluoride was added into drinking water to reduce cavities. Whether or not it actually does this is still a matter for debate – especially since vested interest and biased studies have clouded the picture. It is interesting to note that fluoride was originally a by-product of the aluminium production process and many of the original funds for research into the ‘benefits’ of fluoride in drinking water came from aluminium companies!
The general public has been largely kept in the dark about the dangers of fluoride. Degenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s have been linked to toxic build up in the brain – including the toxin fluoride. Cancer, behavioral problems, thyroid suppression, male infertility and impotence are also some examples of problems associated with the toxic accumulation of fluoride. Furthermore the combination of fluoride and aluminum is particularly toxic for the brain and is connected to the development of Parkinson’s and Lou Gehrig’s diseases.
The time for most rapid brain growth and development occurs in the last three months of pregnancy and the first two years after birth. This means the brain is particularly prone to the damage caused by toxins, including fluoride, during that time. Fluoride can also accumulate in the brain and with every drink of fluoridated water the fluoride levels increase. The number of research studies showing the significant toxic damage caused by fluoride in the brain continues to grow. Some of the results of these studies include:
This is just a brief summary of some of the evidence that demonstrates the damage that can be caused by fluoride and the fluoridation of drinking water. So what about the improvement to our teeth? The American Dental Association, among many others globally, promoted fluoridation by suggesting that fluoridated drinking water can reduce cavities by as much as 50%. Has this actually happened? There are some early studies that suggested an improvement in dental cavities. However, a study involving 39,000 schoolchildren (a very large study sample), found no overall reduction in cavities in communities with fluoride in their water. Another worldwide study showed that children who live in areas with no fluoride in the water had lower cavity rates. The fact is, cavity rates reflect diet quality, dental hygiene and general health, not fluoride water levels.

Fluoride is clearly toxic for the body. It accumulates in tissues and causes damage. This damage can result in cancers, learning and memory difficulties, behavioural problems as well as many other conditions. There is, at best, limited evidence that it has any benefit for preventing tooth decay. Because the body has to deal with fluoride as a poison it is best to avoid it in drinking water, toothpaste, vaccinations, pesticides and herbicides, medications and Teflon coated cookware. If fluoride is added to your local drinking water supply then use a water filter to remove it, you’ll find many additional benefits from doing so. If you have had exposure to fluoride you will benefit from the detoxification of the whole body.
