{{:/resources:fluoridesideeffects.jpg?250 }} Lots of comments about Fluoride being bad for us can be found on Internet, usually without citing sources leading to one to think of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-0TEJMJOhk|paranoid conspiracy theories]]. Comments such as One Part Per Billion (1 ppb) of Sodium Fluoride dulled the creative section of the mind. Is this why the government wants it put in the water? I'll leave that for you to research for yourself. It should also be noted that the original research on Fluoride being good for teeth was done with //Calcium// Fluoride not Sodium Fluoride. We [[:bpaddock:amys_kitchen|cleaned up what we ate]], drank and got artificial chemicals like [[:resources:fluoride|Fluoride]] in toothpaste, chemical based soap, shampoos, cleaning products (Amazing what White Vinegar will clean) out of the house, went with natural organics such as Hemp based soaps and cooking oils. The Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Lupus symptoms went way over time, and did not return. The issue really was //[[wp>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_chemical_sensitivity|Multiple Chemical Sensitivities]]//! Overlook **//NOTHING//** in your environment nor the products you put in or on your body (Hair Coloring or getting a Perm for example). Consider things like air fresheners. Good smelling stuff can be quite toxic just as the [[:resources:fart|reverse might be true]]. Now the prestigious medical journal //[[http://www.thelancet.com|The Lancet]]// has declared Fluoride to be a neurotoxin, giving support to all of the conspirators: **//[[http://www.thelancet.com/journals/laneur/article/PIIS1474-4422%2813%2970278-3/fulltext|Neurobehavioural effects of developmental toxicity]]//** by Dr Philippe Grandjean MD, Philip J Landrigan MD
Neurodevelopmental disabilities, including autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, dyslexia, and other cognitive impairments, affect millions of children worldwide, and some diagnoses seem to be increasing in frequency. Industrial chemicals that injure the developing brain are among the known causes for this rise in prevalence. In 2006, we did a systematic review and identified five industrial chemicals as developmental neurotoxicants: lead, methylmercury, polychlorinated biphenyls, arsenic, and toluene. Since 2006, epidemiological studies have documented six additional developmental neurotoxicants—manganese, **fluoride**, chlorpyrifos, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, tetrachloroethylene, and the polybrominated diphenyl ethers. We postulate that even more neurotoxicants remain undiscovered. To control the pandemic of developmental neurotoxicity, we propose a global prevention strategy. Untested chemicals should not be presumed to be safe to brain development, and chemicals in existing use and all new chemicals must therefore be tested for developmental neurotoxicity. To coordinate these efforts and to accelerate translation of science into prevention, we propose the urgent formation of a new international clearinghouse.
