Fluoride Damages Your Brain!

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2007/11/22/fluoride-damages-your-brain.aspx

One of the most active research areas today is fluoride’s ability to damage your brain. Recent human studies from China have confirmed the results of previous animal studies; that elevated fluoride exposure leads to reduced I.Q. in children.

Gurkha- Honey this study was done in China....actually it's a conspiracy theory put together by dentists to generate more business because floride prevents cavities.

Mistress,

ADA and dentists stand to loose big on this, not to mention the dental care and toothpaste industries themselves. Fluiridation is among the treatments used by dentists http://www.ada.org/public/topics/fluoride/index.asp

There have been many studies done in other places as well http://www.mercola.com/article/links/fluoride_links.htm so yes, its a fluoride conspiracy indeed.

There is so much pesticide residue in Coca Cola sold in India that its being used as a pesticide by farmers... http://www.guardian.co.uk/india/story/0,12559,1341454,00.html

It also makes an excellent toilet cleaner.

While you may call it anecdotal data, I’m 52 and successfully retired from Silicon Valley life after many years of senior technical management positions. I have no college education, never inherited a penny and earned every nickel I own… and I was raised in the 50’s/60’ craze of fluoridation of water. I still rememebr the very pale greenish tint. Depending on how you look at the fluoridation issue, one could draw the conclusion that fluoride made me smarter. I don’t think my brain has any ill effects from fluoride. Remember about 20 years ago when the study came out about peanut butter causing cancer?
Cheers,
Jeff
