You have a choice in what toothpaste to buy but not in what water runs in our homes.
It comes straight from chemical plants in China and Florida. It's hydrofluoric fluoride.
These Do NOT Remove Fluoride
Brita, Pur, and most other filters - Some websites about fluoride removal state otherwise, but I checked the product descriptions on the companies' websites to confirm that fluoride is left in the water.
Boiling Water - This will concentrate the fluoride rather than reduce it
Freezing Water - Freezing water does not affect the concentration of fluoride
im not sure if the tap water here in Ireland is fluoridated anyway
So What's the Truth About Tooth Decay?
The truth is that more and more evidence shows that fluorides and dental fluorosis are actually associated with increased tooth decay. The most comprehensive US review was carried out by the National Institute of Dental Research on 39,000 school children aged 5-17 years.18 It showed no significant differences in terms of DMF (decayed, missing and filled teeth). What it did show was that high decay cities (66.5-87.5 percent) have 9.34 percent more decay in the children who drink fluoridated water. Furthermore, a 5.4 percent increase in students with decay was observed when 1 ppm fluoride was added to the water supply. Nine fluoridated cities with high decay had 10 percent more decay than nine equivalent non-fluoridated cities.
The world's largest study on dental caries, which looked at 400,000 students, revealed that decay increased 27 percent with a 1ppm fluoride increase in drinking water.19 In Japan, fluoridation caused decay increases of 7 percent in 22,000 students,20 while in the US a decay increase of 43 percent occured in 29,000 students when 1ppm fluoride was added to drinking water.21

The attitude of 'this is old news so we should ignore it' It just terrible. No wonder the govt are getting away with so much.
Apathy, apparently 1 of the symptoms of drinking flouride.
Study after study shows flouride in water is damaging to the human body. Why do we think it is banned in so many other countries........sham-erica knows better than those bloody foreigners eh?
Believing every claim for every conspiracy whats that a sign of real APATHY because you don't think for yourself !
Being using fluoride toothpaste since a kid so has my wife brothers & sisters etc I am in my 50's and healthier than some people younger than me.
ANYTHING can poison/harm you if you get to much of it even water and oxygen !!!!
