Fluoride
Why is it in our drinking water?
Mineral nutrient?
OR drug?
Does it mess up our thyroid?
What effects on the pineal gland?
Cause any deficiencies in the body?
Is fluoride deficiency possible?
WHY is it in nursery water?!
"In 1997, the FDA ordered toothpaste manufacturers to add a poison warning on all fluoride toothpastes sold in the U.S. The warning reads: “Keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If you accidentally swallow more than used for brushing, seek professional help or contact a poison control center immediately.”

What about drinking tea?
White, green, oolong and black tea all originate from the same camellia senensis plant.
I think white is best for many reasons
Tea plants accumulate fluoride in their leaves over time, so the oldest leaves would most likely contain the most fluoride, while the youngest contain the least.
Therefore IMO white tea (which is made from youngest leaves and buds) is your best bet to reduce fluoride exposure.
White tea has more antioxidants
Most likely because it is processed less.
Minimal caffeine.
Costs a little more.
White tea is steamed rapidly and then dried. While green tea is partially fermented.
White tea has a higher level of EGCG.
Cancer treatment EGCG ?

Back to fluoride;)
I hear people fight water fluoridation in their city!
Is the fluoride in our drinking water hexafluorosilicic acid and or sodium silicofluoride?
IS FLUORIDE APPROVED??

"All our thyroids are screwed up," says Dr. Ted Norris, who holds a Ph.D. in neuro-endocrinology, about the consequences of fluoride exposure. "[Fluoride] causes chronic obesity. It causes fatigue. It causes depression. It causes lack of energy, and that's not even to get into the osteosarcomas and the hip replacements. It's devastating. I think it's worse than lead. It's a shame."

Something to think about
SYRIA ATTACK Because they used sodium fluoride on their own people?
