| What on EARTH is in OUR FOOD? Fluoride Did you know? * The vast majority of western Europe has rejected water fluoridation. * The fluoride chemical added to water is an unprocessed, industrial waste-product from the pollution scrubbers of the phosphate fertilizer industry. * A growing body of evidence indicates that water fluoridation is both ineffective and unnecessary. * Fluoride's 'benefits' are primarily topical, not systemic. Thus, there is no need to swallow fluoride. * Two-thirds of US communities, when given the chance to vote, have voted against fluoridation. Over 60 US communities have rejected water fluoridation since 1999. * Excessive exposure to fluoride has been linked to health problems, including arthritis, hip fracture, hypothyroidism, cancer, alzheimers disease, and reduced IQ. * Children are receiving too much fluoride today, not "too little". There is a need to reduce, not increase, current exposures. * As a result of excess exposure to fluoride, near-epidemic numbers of children are developing dental fluorosis (a poisoning of tooth-forming cells).
