Thank you Professor Todd for providing rationale using caveman chemistry, defining the truthiness of fluoridation, scientifically confirmed using common knowledge.
Over the past weeks you provided science demonstrating the long told story supporting fluoridation, "fluoride is fluoride, regardless of the source".
Using science to confirm; "We are made from the broken down pieces of the things that we eat". The fluoride we drink can be used in our bodies to form hydrofluoric acid, proven to destroy enzymes critical for a healthy life. The US-Environmental Protection Agency, using their science confirms fluoride is regulated in drinking water, because too much fluoride causes harm. They have lowered approved fluoride levels by nearly 50 per cent. Canada's fluoride levels are significantly lower than the U.S.
Canadian science proves fluoride causes harm to children under three years old, including unborn children through fluoride transfer through the placenta (from mother to baby). Not so common Knowledge. Science continues to confirm, we store fluoride in our bodies, (bones, teeth, organs). Science confirms, fluoride affects children and adults in negative ways (bone cancers, thyroid and other scientifically known learning problems).
Using common knowledge, the quantity of fluoride that each person stores depends on how much we eat and drink, (highly variable). While some politicians and some physicians continue to support over 60 years of fluoridation, science based, common knowledge defines the harm from too much fluoride in each, and individual person's body.
The decision to add fluoride to drinking water, forcing people to; either drink poisoned water (added fluoride, lead, arsenic) or not drink water (unless you can purchase fluoride reduced / free water) defies logic, using common sense. How did you put that? "if you keep asserting something that feels right often enough for long enough it has got to be the truth, doesn't it? Keep telling people fluoride is good, "that's just plain truthiness." Professor, is it not time for the truth about the real harm from fluoridation to be made known? Stop fluoridation now.
