I have often wondered about why Fluoride is pumping through our water supply. If you did not know, basically the entire United States adds Fluoride to the tap water that you drink and bathe in. The question is: Why? Supposedly it is good for your teeth. Catch is there are loads of dentists who don’t agree with that. Furthermore, why does the government care that much about your teeth?
Not to go all conspiracy theory on people, but apparently I am not the only person who has thought this. Apparently there is a growing movement with certain areas of the country where they are now second guessing this Fluoride business, and in some cases taking it a step further by removing it from the water supply completely. If you think that a water filter in your house will take care of the issue, it won’t.
now this is cause for some concern.
“40% doesn’t dissolve”
and
“..but this is approved on the list… oops, no its not”.
what kind of safety measures are being used for municiple water – the same water we drink and wash our food in?
I also find it a little disconcerting about fluoride in the water supply. Seems like laziness not to remove it, while I should be able to control the exposure of fluoride to me and my family. Although I can see how the government might be interested in teeth care, they seem to be sporadically concerned about health care. Maybe if antibiotics were pumping through the water supply, we’d all be healthier. Wait, they already are.
As far as removing it the catch is Fluoride is actually ADDED into the water supply. All that needs to happen is to cease adding it – as the city in the article I posted did.
WEIRD.
/sarcasm I just love reading stories like this. Makes me feel proud
Oh RIGHT…I meant they add it if it there isn’t enough, instead of just removing it until neutral. Seems a little weird to me, too.
Here in Bremerton, WA – Flouride is NOT added to the water. Quite a few of my Co-Workers were surprised when they went to the dentist and had the MOST cavaties in their whole life – 30 year olds who have had very few cavaties previously. My wife started getting cavaties – cost some $$$ to get those fixed. Also – nationwide cavaties were consistently going down until the nation got hooked on bottled water (one of the biggest wastes of $$ and use of resources) which doesn’t have flouride. Dentists are losing too much $$ with flouride in the water. I am pro-flouride!!!
Good to hear another opinion on the matter.
