There is zero reason for fluoridation in a first world country. Only harmful effects on the population.
I have a fantastic, very based, dentist. If I understand it correctly, he paid for thousands of handbills that were dispersed throughout Utah showing Romney's voting record to older voters & also his ties to Bruisma along with some other shady stuff. This was apparently done weeks before Romney said they wouldn't run again.
He consistently talks about conspiracy facts (provable) with staff while he is working on patients & refuses to put metal (mercury) in a patient's mouth.
He was telling me that the same reason flouride is great for teeth is the reason it is so horrible for our organs. He doe use a flouride varnish to help strengthen softer teeth & tells patients he won't do that procedure more than once per year because he doesn't want it to calcify the peneal gland.
A great American who seems to believe there is a racket involved in how "approved" products do not follow data or real science.
What I love most is he provides information & encourages everyone to do their own research.
When he tells me that weak enamel benefits from flouride varnish, I beleieve him. He taught me about the benefits of Ozone & how acid is the culprit for cavities instead of sugar (though most sugary products are very acidic & that is why do many believe the cavities are cause by sugar).
Fluoride on teeth has beneficial effects, so I can see why he'd use a fluoride product, even understanding that it's bad for us internally. A lot of things are like that.
The idea that fluoride in the water supply even has any relevance is also just... So very weird, because people still use a fluoridated tooth paste (not everyone of course) so it's not exactly measurable in a population.
They claim it's such a small trace amount, but people who don't and do drink the fluoridated water have bad and good teeth.
Frankly it amazes me that people were so thoroughly gaslit by fluoride in the water supply being a good thing, as when a lot of people drink water it barely even touches teeth.
They’re allegedly putting it in the water supply for a health/medical benefit. But it’s indiscriminate (you can’t monitor or control dosage) and it’s not voluntary, which should be a very serious crime.
I’m at the point that I’d question if it even has a benefit for people’s teeth. It sounds like an excuse to lace the water supply for some other purpose. Regardless, if you believe it and want to use it, then buy fluoride toothpaste and brush your teeth.
I was only aware of the supposed health/medical benefit being for teeth.
Is there more they try to say it's good for? Because that is some BEWWWLshiet.
Yes, it should be a choice to use fluoride. At least Zero Water filters explicitly filter out as much fluoride as possible.
