FOR BEAUTIFUL TEETH, AVOID THIS!

In the last 10 years alone there have been at least 23 global published studies associating fluoride exposure to a lowering of IQ in children, damage to teeth, brittle bones, accelerated aging and increase the risk of degenerative disease. Millions of children around the world are unnecessarily exposed to Fluoride both through their toothpaste and even worse their drinking water neurotoxin on a daily basis.

According to the studies, fluoride actively interferes with the functioning of a large number of key enzymes in the human body and brain and impairs children’s natural brain development.

Fluoride has the ability to cross the placenta and enter the unprotected, developing fetal brain, so it can cause brain damage even in the woumb. More than a hundred published animal studies document fluoride's harm to the brain and its ability to lower babies IQ even before they are born.

Governments have been adding fluoride to tap water and encouraging fluoride in toothpaste for decades to « protect » children’s teeth from tooth decay. However it now turns out that the assumption that fluoride protects frorm tooth decay was based on super-flaky research, and latest findings confirm that fluoride does not protect teeth from cavities at all : quite the opposite, fluoride actually causes dental fluoridosis[1](white or brown patches on teeth), increases the risk of brittle bones, fractures and crippling bone abnormalities."

A revolutionary report published in the journal Langmuir, shows that the assumed benefits of topical application of fluoride are no benefits at all, as the flouride deposited on teeth after brushing with fluoride toothpaste is 10,000 times finer than the width of a strand of hair and is washed away through the simple act of chewing : Fluoride does not protect against cavities at all.

Quite the opposite, two recent studies both concluded that fluoride is actually bad for teeth. One study published in India[2] showed that fluoride leads to an increased risk of tooth decay and other health problems including bone deformities, weakening of the immune system, accelerated aging and even blindness. A second study confirming that fluoride is actually bad for teeth was published in October of last year in the Journal of the American Dental Association !

According to official US government reports[3] a shocking 41 percent of American teenagers have dental fluorosis due to the fluoride artificially added to tap water and toothpaste. In the UK the statistics are lower as fluoridated water is less widespread. But every child with flouride damage is one too many. You have to question that if fluorosis of teeth is already visible, what other side effects of fluoride poisoning (bone defects, poor thyroid function, arthritis, reduced cognitive ability..) will show up later..

Fluoride is is a cumulative toxin that is "neurotoxic and potentially tumorigenic if swallowed[4]", it causes cellular damage and interferes with the absorption of key minerals such as iodine, which is found in every cell of your body and is absolutely essential for thyroid function and hormonal health. Fluoride leaches large quantities of iodine from the body, so putting it in tap water directly causes widespread iodine deficiency – which is linked to Hashimoto’s disease and other Thyroid disorders : it is estimated that over 40% of pregnant women in the Western world are iodine deficient[5]. As good iodine levels are essential both for a baby’s brain development and for a healthy thyroid in later life, adding fluoride to tap water looks crazier and crazier.

In countries where fluoride is added to the water there is an additional risk of neurotoxicity to babies by uninformed parents who make up baby formula with tap water. At current Amercian levels (0.7 ppm) for example, such a baby would receive approximately 175 times more fluoride than a breast-fed child, putting it at massively increased risk of nerve damage, impaired immune function, brittle, deformed bones and a lower IQ.

Cheers !

The best way to prevent tooth decay is to eat lots of raw fruits and vegetables and fermented foods (sauerkraut, cheese & unsweetened, full-fat yoghyrt) reduce consumption of refined, sugary foods, and rinse your mouth with (fabulously antibacterial) coconut oil after every meal.
