More Information

Fluoride compounds are salts that form when the element, fluorine, combines with minerals in soil or rocks. The FDA lists fluoride as an “unapproved new drug” and the EPA lists fluoride as a “contaminant”. Fluoride has never received ‘FDA Approval’. Fluoride's toxicity in humans is not confined to teeth and bone, it has been linked to an increase in florosis in children, acne, Alzheimer’s, kidney damage, gastrointestinal problems, cancer, genetic damage, neurological impairment, bone and tooth decay, and brain damage. The chemicals used to fluoridate drinking water increase the levels of lead in children's blood. Babies are especially sensitive to fluoridation. Humans are accumulating dangerous levels of fluoride in their blood and bone because flouride is now in everything from our toothpaste to the food we eat.
