The Water Fluoridation Controversy

The truth about fluoride is a lot like the truth about Enron, or Goldman Sachs, or every other shocking revelation that nobody believed until it suddenly became obvious that we were all being fooled for so long. Fluoride is a clever scheme, where a hazardous waste chemical is dumped into the environment by passing it through the bodies of people first. We, the People, have become the toxic waste dump site of the phosphate mining industry, and chances are, your local dentist fully supports this entire process.

Over the last several decades, an astonishing twenty-four studies have established a statistical link between fluoride exposure and low IQs in children. One study conducted by the Center for Endemic Disease Control in China found that each additional milligram of fluoride detected in every liter of a child's urine was associated with a 0.59 point decrease in their IQ score. Another study found that fluoride exposure slashed the number of children achieving "high IQs" by more than 70 percent. The truth is, it causes irreparable brain damage.

When dentists and doctors say they support fluoride in the water supply, what they're really saying is that they support the mass poisoning of the population with a highly toxic hazardous waste product that, if it weren't dripped into the water supply, it would have to be disposed of as highly toxic hazardous waste under strict EPA regulations.

Curiously, it is a violation of federal law to dump hexafluorosilicic acid or sodium silicofluoride into the water. Such an act, in fact, is considered an act of terrorism. Yet it is mysteriously allowed today as long as it is accompanied by a loosely-justified claim that "we're doing this to stop cavities."

It shouldn't be surprising, of course, to learn that a consuming a hazardous chemical might impair brain function. Water fluoridation, in turns out, may be the root cause of the alarming drop in academic aptitude among children in first-world nations. Historically speaking, the mathematics that used to be taught to eighth graders in the 1950s are now college-level courses in 2011. Maybe the reason why Johnny can't read or spell is because Johnny's been drinking too much fluoride.

  1. Interesting. Here, in Brazil, the fluoride in water is quite high, now makes sense.

  2. Heard about this as a vague conspiracy a while back, made the switch to pure bottled spring water recently

  3. I remember hearing about this on the radio. They said fluoride was an ingredient in the atomic bomb or something. This is an interesting "controversy" though, we're poisoning our own water.

  6. here in my country, its pretty much the same thing, the best excuse the government gave to the people, was "the fluor is good for your tooth" i knew this theory because i read it before, and actually i support it, has perfect sense to me

  7. Hmm, fascinating information on the studies correlating IQ & fluoride level. Here in Hawaii, the public water is non-fluoridated, but most people drink catchment water. My son's vitamins supplements contain fluoride though.

  8. Does regular water filtration remove fluoride?

  9. I buy bottled water so hopefully I'm safe.

  10. Bottled water for drinking is the way to go!

  11. Well, it's true that fluoride is very dangerous. When we work with stuff that contains fluoride in the lab, we always have to wear gloves and protection glasses.
    I always wondered why they would want to put that stuff in drinking water. Doesn't seem to make any sense really.
