Fluoride
conference reveals fraudulent science behind mass
fluoridation; fluoride policy is a public fraud
The First
Citizens' Conference on Fluoride was recently held in
Canton
,
New York
, and it revealed some astonishing new research about the
dangers of fluoride and why the current political position on
fluoridation of public water supplies is based on fraudulent
science.
The fluoridation of public
water is something that has been highly debated for decades --
and yet the practice continues today, despite the growing body
of evidence showing that fluoridation causes untold human
suffering and disease. Some of the research presented at the
conference showed, for example, that fluoridation
damages the brain, increases levels of lead in children's
blood and therefore leads to behavioral disorders and brain
damage. It also showed that humans are accumulating fluoride
in their bones, that fluoride's toxicity is systemic in the human
body, and that the current safe drinking
water standards for fluoride were fraudulently authored by
officials at the Environmental Protection Agency who were
pressured.
These findings were presented
by a variety of scientists and researchers, including a senior
EPA scientist
and a doctor of the
Forsyth
Dental
Center
. Not surprisingly, both of these individuals have been fired
and have had their careers jeopardized after participating in
this conference.
One of the more interesting
bits of evidence presented in the study was an internal memo
issued by the
EPA professional who wrote the current fluoridation safe
drinking water
standards. In the memo, the official notes how this new
standard would produce "teeth gross enough to gag a
maggot." The conference also featured author Christopher
Bryson, who wrote the book The Fluoride Deception, who said,
"Fluoride science is corporate science, fluoride science
is DDT science, it's asbestos science, it's tobacco
science."
In other words, fluoride
science isn't scientific at all -- it's distorted science made
up by bureaucrats and political officials who have some other
agenda in mind rather than public
health. If you're new to this debate on fluoride, you
might find some of this information shocking. But I've been
covering fluoride for several years, and have fought hard at
both the local and national level to educate people about the
dangers of fluoridation.
There are so many things wrong
with the mass fluoridation of the
U.S.
population that it's hard to know where to begin talking about
it. First off, there's the idea that fluoride is a so-called
"naturally occurring substance in water." That's the
lie propagated by dentists
and the American Dental Association to try to convince people
that simply "adjusting the naturally occurring
levels" is somehow a good thing to do.
But all of this is based on a
distortion. In reality, the fluoride added to the public water
supplies in the
United States
is not organic fluoride at all. It is in fact fluorosilicic
acid, which is purchased in bulk from chemical companies,
who must be laughing loudly at the idea that they can actually
sell this toxic
waste product. Why? Because if cities weren't buying it
and putting it into the public water
supply, these industrial companies would have to spend
millions of dollars disposing of fluorosilicic acid because it
is an EPA regulated toxic waste.
Let me put this another way --
fluorosilicic acid is a toxic waste byproduct that is produced
in the United
States by various chemical companies. It represents such a
health hazard to human
beings that it is regulated by the EPA, and must be
disposed of as a toxic waste. And yet, municipalities
throughout the
United States
actually purchase this product and then drip it into the
public water supply, and simultaneously call it
"fluoride."
Fluorosilicic acid is not
fluoride, it is something very different, and it strikes me as
downright bizarre that it is perfectly legal to dump this
toxic waste product into the rivers and streams of America
as long as it passes through the bodies of human beings first.
In other words, it's illegal to take a bucket of fluorosilicic
acid and dump it into a stream, but it is perfectly legal to
dump it into the bodies of human beings, whose waste products
will subsequently enter those same streams and rivers.
All of this is done under the
guise of distorted scientific evidence that claims the mass
consumption of fluorosilicic acid somehow improves the dental
health of Americans. And yet there is no credible evidence
that this is the case. All of the evidence cited by the EPA,
the American Dental Association, and dentists has been
fraudulently concocted, and quite frankly is decades old.
Across
America
today, you see the effects of mass fluoridation all around you
-- you see children with darkened teeth from fluoridosis, you
see elderly people breaking their bones because fluoridation
of the water supplies contributes to brittle bones. You see
children with behavioral disorders that are multiplied by the
effects of lead in their bloodstream, and lead uptake is
enhanced in the presence of fluoride in public water.
You also see a great number of
neurological disorders in the
U.S.
population. You see problems with migraine headaches, clinical
depression, dementia, and Alzheimer's, and there is a very
strong link between these diseases and the long-term
consumption of fluoride in the public water supply.
Beyond all of this, there's the
important question of why dentists and public health officials
think the public water supply is an acceptable medium through
which to mass medicate the
U.S.
population in the first place. It is a forced medication
that has no consideration for the nutritional choices made by
individuals who might be drinking that water. Some individuals
might be using fluoridated toothpaste,
and thus if they're drinking fluoridated water, they could
easily be getting too much fluoride and suffer from
fluoridosis.
The public water supply is a
bad place to be putting drugs and medications in an effort to
alter the chemistry of the
U.S.
population. I've even heard some doctors
who are excited about the supposed benefits of statin
drugs say that we should drip statin drugs into the public
water supply the way we do fluoride. They say the benefit is
so widespread that everybody should be taking these drugs. It
would be ludicrous to suppose that we should mass-medicate the
entire U.S. public with statin drugs by dripping them into the
public water supply, and yet this is exactly what takes place
every day right now with fluoride, which is also a bioactive
chemical compound that could reasonably be classified as a
drug. Using the public water supply to mass medicate people is
bad policy. It's also bad
science, and it takes away the freedom of choice from the
U.S.
population. It is Big Brother at its worst.
One of the other things I find
so interesting about this debate on fluoride is that dentists
and doctors will leap to defend this practice at every
opportunity -- and why? Is it because there's good scientific
evidence that fluoridination is somehow beneficial to the
public? No, it's because they've been told to support it by
their associations, such as the American Medical Association
and the American Dental Association.
In community meetings, I've
seen local dentists jump up and down and scream about how
important fluoridation is for public health. These people use
their apparent authority to try to convince everyone that they
should be mass medicated with this substance. I find this
especially bizarre because many of these dentists and doctors
promote this as a nutritional prevention strategy -- they're
talking about fluoride as being essential nutrition
for the human body, and therefore we should put it into the
water supply. And yet, if you mention that the most common
nutritional deficiencies are in fact magnesium, zinc,
vitamin D, and the B vitamins, they will look at you as if you
are speaking some kind of alien tongue. Apparently in their
minds, there is only one nutritional deficiency that exists in
the world, and that is a fluoride deficiency. All other
nutritional deficiencies are called quackery, and the idea of
dripping zinc into the public water supply would be called
absurd by these doctors and dentists. And yet they are more
than happy to drip a toxic waste byproduct into the water
supply, as long as it is called a nutritional deficiency that
needs to be overcome through the forced mass medication of the
entire population.
All of this is so bizarre that
a reasonable person can only conclude these doctors and
dentists are operating on auto-pilot. They are parroting
whatever their organizing associations are telling them to
say. They've been sucked into the myth that fluoride is
automatically good for everyone and that every person in the
country should be dosed with this bioactive chemical compound.
And to top it off, they are
extremely arrogant about the whole thing. They act like
because they are dentists, they are qualified to talk about
this one single nutritional deficiency and its effects on the
entire human body. In fact, dentists have no qualifications to
talk about the effects of fluoride on the human nervous
system, the blood supply, behavioral disorders or other
physiological effects. Dentists are really only qualified to
talk about what's happening with your teeth -- not drugs or
chemicals that you ingest and that have a systemic effect.
At the same time, most western
doctors aren't qualified to talk about nutrition, either.
They've had almost no nutritional training in their medical
schools, and simply remain illiterate about the relationships
between nutritional deficiencies and chronic disease. So, you
essentially have a whole group of experts that know nothing
about the subject they are talking about, but yet who
grandstand and claim to be the authorities on it and pound the
public into the mistaken belief that people should be dosed
with this toxic waste product regardless of the scientific
facts.
This is essentially a mass
experiment now being conducted on the American population, and
I think we are seeing some the effects of this in the
worsening health statistics in this country. Fluoride is also
thought to suppress intelligence and independent will, which
may explain some of the reasons why the
U.S.
population is so easy to control through propaganda
and media manipulation. In fact, there is some interesting
research going way back about fluoride being used on wartime
prisoners as a truth serum in an effort to get them to go
along with the capturing nation's propaganda. So, in an almost
comic sense, the mass medication of the
U.S.
population with fluoride could, in a very real sense, be
turning our country into a nation of mindless zombies. Of
course, that's an exaggeration of what's probably really
happening, but no doubt it has some influence.
Now what does all of this mean
for you, as consumer? What should you do to protect yourself
from fluoride? First off, you should never use products that
contain fluoride. That is, don't use toothpaste or mouthwashes
that contain fluoride. Also, don't purchase bottled water that
has added fluoride in it. I think that's a ridiculous product
to have on the shelves.
Don't drink from the public
water supply. Of course, if you're drinking tap
water right now, you probably need to step back and
question your judgment anyway -- tap water contains so many toxic
chemicals (such as chlorine) that it represents a risk to
human health even without the fluoride. One of the simplest
and most important things you can do to protect your health
and the health of your family is to get yourself a
faucet-mounted water filter such as a Britta filer or a PUR
filter that uses carbon-block filtration to remove fluoride, chlorine,
and other water contaminants. Better yet, drink water that is
filtered through reverse osmosis or is distilled.
Best of all, if you can afford
it, drink spring water as your primary source of water. And
don't fall for the propaganda that says we should be mass
medicating our entire population with a toxic waste product
called "fluoride." It's based on bad science, the
egos of misinformed medical
authorities, and political power grabs that have nothing
whatsoever to do with protecting the public health.
