When Your Tap Water Is Toxic

Fluoride is a potent neurotoxin that's been fraudulently promoted as a cure for cavities for the past five decades. Recent scientific developments deserve special notice as they offer a compelling picture of the truth. Not only do we now have yet another study showing that fluoridated water has a significant (detrimental) impact on children's IQ, but researchers have also discovered that the benefits of topical application of fluoride is highly questionable.

A groundbreaking study published in the journal Langmuir has uncovered that the fluorapatite layer formed on your teeth from fluoride is a mere six nanometers thick. To understand just how thin this is, you'd need 10,000 of these layers to get the width of a strand of your hair! Scientists now question whether this ultra-thin layer can actually protect your enamel and provide any discernible benefit, considering the fact that it is quickly eliminated by simple chewing.

The conventional wisdom has been that topical application of fluoride can help strengthen your enamel and help prevent decay. If that's untrue, then the case against water fluoridation—the ingestion of fluoride—becomes even stronger than it ever was before.

There's just no doubt that ingesting fluoride has no beneficial effect on your teeth. In fact, there's overwhelming evidence indicating that fluoride is a potent toxin that can cause a wide array of severe health problems once ingested.

When evaluating the issue of water fluoridation it is also important to understand that fluoride is a drug. You can't get fluoride without a prescription. Yet it's being added to your water supply on a mandatory basis. This water fluoridation is a major assault on your freedom of choice – to be drugged or not.

Sodium fluoride, which is a far simpler toxin than the fluoride compounds used for most water fluoridation, has also been used for rat and cockroach poisons, so there is no question that it is highly toxic.

According to World Health Organization data, people living in those parts of the developed world (i.e. most of Europe) where the water is NOT fluoridated have teeth are that are just as good, if not better than Americans'.

The latest study was announced in a December 20 news release. Now, this study has been withdrawn from publication because of "a policy regarding the use of previously published material." I guess they thought it was redundant. However, according to Dr. Paul Connett, director of The Fluoride Action Network, this study is stronger than the rest and makes a more direct link between fluoride exposure and brain damage in children.

Now who in their right mind (I guess many parents have brain damage too) would risk lowering their child's intelligence with something that may or may not reduce a small amount of tooth decay?

I highly recommend that you follow the link below and read the article in it's entirety, watch the video, and read Dr. Mercola's comments. He goes on to explain the real cause of tooth decay and what YOU can do to help end water fluoridation in Canada and the United States.

Get in action, and make this world a better place!
