The debate over water fluoridation is growing around the world but the truth that when governments fluoridate our water they are artificially adulterating the most basic human necessity without the consent of the population.
In our modern commercial world if a substance is healthy corporations will sell it to us - not give it to us for free!
There is a lot to discuss in the fluoride debate and the argument is becoming fierce! So lets have a look at some of the major topics of discussion...
What Is Fluoride & Where Do We Fluoridate Public Water?
According to Wikipedia fluoride is is an inorganic, monatomic anion of fluorine with the chemical formula F−.
Fluoride compounds are an industrial waste product of several industrial processes including Aluminium production. Many insect and rodent poisons are made from sodium fluoride which is toxic.
Controversially the american politician Jessie Ventura believes that the Nazis and Soviet era Russians both fluoridated water supplies to make their prisoners docile for easy control.
The first city in the US to fluoridate its water was Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1945. By 2008 more than 72% of the US’s public water was fluoridated. Most other developed nations do not fluoridate public water. In Western Europe only 3% of the population currently consumes fluoridated public water.
Approximately 5% of the world’s population consumes artificially fluoridated water which is about 377,655,000 million people. More people consume fluoridated water in the US than all the other countries combined. Currently 25 countries have public water fluoridation programs but only 11 countries have more than 50% of their population consuming fluoridated water. These countries are:
- Australia (80%)
- Brunei (95%)
- Chile (70%)
- Guyana (62%)
- Hong Kong (100%)
- The Irish Republic (73%)
- Israel (70%)
- Malaysia (75%)
- New Zealand (62%)
- Singapore (100%)
- The United States (64%)
Why are these governments spending public money to fluoridate public water supplies without the consent of their populations?
Who Made The Case For Water Fluoridation?
In 1931 the Alcoa chemist H.V. Churchill analysed water from several areas where a kind of teeth discolouration known as Colorado brown stain was common. This problem supposedly stained teeth but reduced cavities and this Alcoa scientist believed fluoride was the common factor.
It is important to note that Alcoa is an industrial giant and the world's fifth largest producer of aluminium - water fluoridation is clearly of economic value to large industrial corporations such as Alcoa!
As early as the 1940s studies were being produced that recommended adding fluoride to public water. However my research seems to show that countries which fluoridate water have no less cavities than countries which do not fluoridate.
The Debate Over The Safety Of Water Fluoridation
There are several concerning issues associated with the discussion of public water fluoridation. Here are a few serious concerns that are worth noting:
- Fluoride is toxic: we already use sodium fluoride in the manufacture of many poisons
- The loss of right to choice: many people believe that artificially fluoridating water does not consider the individual's right to consent for treatment with an industrial chemical
- Fluoride is a byproduct of industrial production: toxic chemicals should be disposed of in the safest manner possible
- Fluoride is not healthy for us: it does not seem that fluoridating water decreases the rate of cavities, there are also other major health concerns regarding this toxin
I feel that these issues need to be discussed in greater detail and perhaps I will dedicate a further post to them!
What Can You Do If You Don't Want Fluoride In Your Body
If you live in an area where they fluoridate water it is difficult to avoid it. However there are a few things you can do to to regain your freedom of choice:
- Buy fluoride filters for your drinking water and shower
- Avoid bottled water with fluoride
- Buy toothpaste that is fluoride free
- Stop eating meat or pre-washed vegetables as these will contain fluoride - especially the meat!
A major concern is that fluoride has a negative impact on our pineal glands. The pineal gland is one of the oldest parts of our brain and is considered by many cultures to be our third eye.
The pineal gland produces Dimethyltryptamine an amazing natural substance that I must discuss in another post. I have heard that fluoride calcifies our pineal glands and perhaps one cure for this is drinking Ayahuasca which again is another post!
What Are Your Thoughts?
I have met people who are very pro fluoride - most of them have been involved in dentistry.
I would be most interested to hear your thoughts!
