Despite being on a low income, I now buy all our family's drinking water in 10 litre BPA-free casks from Pureau, who guarantee it is fluoride free.

Just out of curiosity how much do the 10 liter casks set you back?
I had a look at their website but it doesnt say.

$6 - $7 a cask at Maxi-Foods, Upper Ferntree Gully.
Coles is dearer.

fluoride calcifies your pineal gland, makes you submissive zombie - that must be the real reason

We're still waiting?

these government fanboys will never be convinced. why even bother trying? im pretty sure there is absolutely no valid reason why we need to have this chemical in our water. none what so ever. the absolute stupidity and imbecilic argument that its for our teeth when we already brush our teeth with toothpaste and wash with mouth wash which has fluoride too and on top of that we need it in our water as well?????? what?? why not have Gatorade instead just like the movie idiocracy i mean the population is getting at least half way as dumb as that now anyway right?? for our teeth??? cos when im dead at least ill have a killer smile. how cool is that?

The first "official" toxicity study was reported by Phyllis Mullenix, a toxicologist working at Forsyth, a respected dental laboratory.

Forsyth is a Harvard University laboratory. Ivy League level.

She discovered fluoride was neurotoxic in a study published in 1995.

But after publishing, she was fired from Forsyth.

It came out that Colgate Palmolive paid 250,000 or a million quarter to fire her.

Just click my link on the first page. Check out the food and beverage database, and you will see they put flouride in almost all foods and liquids. its not just in the water system, and toothpaste and mouthwash.

Speaking of plastic, I remember seeing an article somewhere that didnt really get any mention. It said that putting plastic in your microwave causes cancer. The plastic gets in your food. How many people store food in tupperware type containers and then reheat it in the same container? How many people use those plastic plates, bowls and cups/tumblers (they sell them at the dollar store, perfect for kids moving out on their own or going to college especially in "todays economy") and heat food or beverages on/in them? I always had a bad feeling about plastic for some reason. I also am anti flouride.

ITS AN INDUSTRIAL WASTE PRODUCT, THEY HAD TO DO SOMETHING WITH IT AND DISCOVERED IT DOES INDEED "CLEAN YOUR TEETH" THIS IS BECAUSE IT WORKS LIKE HYDROCLORIC ACID. WELL A CAN OF COKE WILL CLEAN A NICKEL AND MAKE IT PRETTY SHINY, SHOULD WE PUT COKE And PEPSI IN OUR WATER TOO? NEXT TIME YOU LOSE A TOOTH DROP IT IN A CUP OF COKE SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ANOTHER GREAT FACT ABOUT FLOURIDE, IT CALCIFIES OR "hardens" THE PETUITARY GLAND. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE BRAIN! IM NOT AN EXPERT BUT THIS CANNOT BE GOOD! look up the reasearch on how to fix you`re petuitary, you might need it!

If you have stopped giving your children fluoridated water expect their dental bills to be higher. I looked at a few papers and I can't find evidence that fluoride is that bad for you. My tap water is full of arsinic, above the federal limit. I am in great health and the only people I know who had thyroid problems did not drink flouridated water.

Thanks Kailassa.
I had a look at my local coles yesterday and its $7 there.
I drink a lot of water, at least 3 or 4 litres a day, so im going to be switching to this 'pureau' as soon as i get paid. A bit expensive over the fortnight but you cant really put a price on your health.
Cheers.

And as if the 1995 study by Phyllis Mullenix at Forsyth wasn't enough, later studies and reports found that aluminium(a highly suspected metal involved in Alzheimer's), when given together, increases fluoride's neurotoxicity.
