What is water fluoridation?
Water fluoridation is the addition of a form of fluoride to the water supply of towns and cities at the rate that will bring the total amount of fluoride to 1 part per million (ppm) parts of tap water. The fluoride used in water fluoridation comes from industrial toxic chemical wastes, it is illegal to dispose of it at sea and the rest of the natural environment, yet is OK in water supplies ??
The given justification for compulsory fluoridation of all water supplies is supposedly to prevent tooth decay in young children drinking this medicated water. Proponents tell us that this small quantity is absolutely safe and could not possibly be detrimental to health. However those who advocate fluoridation ignore or dismiss increasing scientific studies indicating that fluoride accumulates in the body and over a period of time fluoride contributes to long-term destruction of teeth and to a number of bone diseases including forms of Arthritis.
Authorities have in the past given safety assurances that ingestion or exposure to other toxic chemicals was absolutely safe. They have made unintended mistakes and have had to admit that they were wrong! In the short term a healthy human body can rid itself of most toxic chemicals. However varying amounts remain in the body and accumulate until eventually these toxic chemicals cause a breakdown in health in many ways. This was the case with health and life destroying DDT, Thalidomide, Deildrin, 245-T, Asbestos, Dioxin and more recently with Vioxx!
WARNING FROM MANY SCIENTISTS, DOCTORS AND DENTISTS OF FLUORIDE HEALTH DANGERS
An increasing number of scientific researchers, including doctors and dentists warn that the same process is occurring with fluoride which is proving to be equally destructive to human and total environmental health! At least the other toxic chemicals that were eventually shown to be harmful or deadly were not compulsory. Fluoridation is!
“Fluoride may be destroying our bones, our teeth and overall health.. it doesn't need to be added to our water and
we may be taking unnecessary risks by doing so”. - Dr. Hardy Limeback, a leading Canadian fluoride authority,
former fluoride advocate and long-standing consultant to Canadian Dental Association.
Dr Hardy Limeback quoted above is one of many dentists, doctors and scientists who at first favoured fluoridation but, as a results of first-hand experiences have withdrawn their support; many have since become vigorous opponents to fluoridation! They join many other professionals who have always opposed fluoridation.
Heeding such proven and persistent warnings most countries around the world refused to fluoridate their water or after years of fluoridation discontinued the practice. Some of the countries now free from added fluoride include… most of the UK (only 10% fluoridated), GERMANY, FRANCE, HOLLAND, ITALY, BELGIUM, DENMARK, AUSTRIA, JAPAN, FINLAND, DENMARK, GREECE, SWITZERLAND, SWEDEN, NORWAY, among other countries and communities.
A recent ruling by the European Court of Justice has made it “ABSOLUTELY ILLEGAL” to add fluoride to public drinking water supplies to medicate populations
With this and much more evidence why is there so much pressure in Australia to fluoridate more communities?
