The History of
Fluoride Being Placed
in Water System
In the 1930s, research showed that fluoride could help to prevent tooth decay
and cavities. Water fluoridation began roughly 15 years later, in 1945–despite
the fact that, before this time, fluoride was already regarded as a toxin. At
concentrations as low as 1 ppm (part per million), fluoride was considered just as
toxic as both lead and arsenic.

Due to the cooperation


between the U.S.
nuclear weapons
program, the dental
industry, and the
aluminum industry,
the public relations
message soon
convinced public health
officials that adding
small quantities of
fluoride to drinking
water would benefit
residents, not poison
them.

At the forefront of
community water
fluoridation were

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 4
Gerald Cox, who was employed by Mellon Institute as a researcher and Francis
C. Frary, who was the director of the aluminum laboratory with the Aluminum
Company of America. Frary was concerned more with the toxic remains
produced by the aluminum plant. The remains were fluoride, which was being
deposited into farmland surrounding the plant. It was becoming very expensive to
dispose of the fluoride pollution.

Gerald Cox had dealt with a similar situation with asbestos-related health issues
and pollution. In trying to prove that asbestos was harmless, he would be able to
help Frary and the aluminum industry.

Enter Harold Hodge. In 1957, he stated unequivocally that, at 1 ppm, fluoride


was completely safe. Scientists, government officials and the public believed him.

Just who was Harold Hodge? He was the chief toxicologist for the Manhattan
Project, responsible for determining the deadliness of the chemicals that were
used in producing the atomic bomb. One of those chemicals? Fluoride.

The Kettering Laboratory, along with the National Institute of Dental Research,
The Aluminum Company of America, Kaiser Aluminum, The American Petroleum
Institute, DuPont, The Aluminum Company of Canada, U.S. Steel and Reynolds
Metals, cooperated on a huge bibliography of abstracts touting the safety of
community fluoridation. The lead on this project was Robert Kehoe, who worked
for the Fluorine Lawyers Committee.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 5
What Countries Have
the Most Fluoride?
From the highest to lowest percentages of community water fluoridation:

• U.S.
• Australia
• Colombia
• Ireland
• Malaysia
• New Zealand
• Singapore

Israel is listed, but has


since banned fluoride
from its drinking
water supplies. Other
than Ireland and
England, Europe is
predominantly non-
fluoridated.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 6
What Countries
Started This and Why
Fluoridation began in the U.S. as scientists working on the development of the
atomic bomb, aluminum factories and the petroleum industry worked to find a
solution to the ever-growing problem of fluoride pollution.

From a letter written by Charles Perkins, a chemist in 1954: Russia, Germany,


Hitler and the Nazis foresaw dominating a world controlled by Nazism. To arrive
at this goal, they would fluoridate the drinking water of countries they planned
to invade. (After drinking fluoridated water for even one year, a person isn’t the
same as he was before beginning to drink treated water. A part of his brain will be
poisoned and narcotized, making it easy for him to be dominated.)

This allegation has since been found to be false.

It’s becoming clear how a poison was touted as a dental benefit. Now that you
know this, how do you know how much fluoride is in your community water?

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 7
How to Measure
or Know How Much
Fluoride is in Our
Water System
If your water supply comes from the municipal water supply, which is a public
source, you can visit your community water system and ask for the annual report
on the quality of your water supply. Every municipal water system is required by
the Environmental Protection Agency to provide an annual water quality report
called the Consumer Confidence Report.

In this report, you’ll be able to find out about the chemicals your city’s water
supply contains, including fluoride.

If you have a private water source, such as a private well, you’ll have to call a
laboratory to test your water supply for the presence of fluoride. Contact the EPA
and their Safe Drinking Water Hotline to ask for additional information about the
safety of your drinking water.

You need to know how much fluoride you and your family are taking in because
of the potential health side effects, some of which are serious.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 8
Health Side Effects
of Fluoride in
Our Water System
When you are exposed to fluoride, you may suffer from a long list of disorders
that can affect your quality of life. These include:

• Lowers the IQ
• Brain damage
• Dementia
• Lethargy or hyperactivity
• Muscle disorders
• Increased absorption of lead
• Arthritis
• Bone fractures
• Bone cancer
• Increased rate of tumor and cancer
development
• Synthesis of collagen is disrupted
• Lowered thyroid function
• Disrupted immune system
• Over 60 enzymes are inactivated
• Slows or stops the formation of
antibodies
• Genetic damage and cell death
• Increased aging process
• Damage to sperm and an increase in infertility
• Reduced melatonin production
• Early onset of puberty

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 9
Because you don’t know the levels of
fluoride in your drinking water, if you
get supplemental fluoride from other
sources, such as toothpaste, it could
be very easy for someone in your
family to take in too much fluoride. In
communities across the U.S., about
1 ppm of fluoride is added to the
community’s water supplies.

This means that very young, small children get the same amount of fluoride,
as do grown adults, making it too easy for babies and small children to suffer
an acute overdose. People who are medically required to drink a lot of water –
kidney patients, for example– take in much higher doses as well.

Fluoride targets your bones and skeleton, kidneys, gastrointestinal system and
heart. It also targets your nerves and teeth.

Should someone you know suffer from an acute fluoride overdose, you need to
know what symptoms to watch for. These include:

Salivation and thirst Nausea and vomiting Stiff spine


Abdominal pain Drowsiness Fever and sweating
Diarrhea Labored breathing Dermatitis or a skin rash

If you take in enough fluoride to deplete the calcium levels in your body, you
could suffer from hypocalcaemia and/or death.

Below is a list of some short term versus long term
side effects of ingesting fluoride:

Short term Side Effects

Other Ways People Are
Exposed to Fluoride
Other Than Water
Other than the water you drink, cook, shower, launder, and clean with, you
are exposed to other sources of fluoride. These include fluoride-containing
mouthwashes and toothpastes.

You can also ingest fluoride from foods that have been processed using fluoride-
treated water. Fluoride is an ingredient in pesticides – meaning, you can take
in more fluoride from foods sprayed with these pesticides. Meat that has been
mechanically de-boned has been exposed to fluoride.

Your pharmaceutical drugs may have fluoride in them. Instant tea has fluoride
in it. And your infant, if she or he drinks formula or soy formula, can be getting
dosed with fluoride as well.

To top all this off, when you visit your dentist, he may apply a professional-
strength topical fluoride treatment to your teeth. That’s an additional exposure.
He may also prescribe fluoride drops that he wants you to add to your drinking
water.

3 Independent Studies
to Proving that
Fluoride is
Bad to Drink
Some studies link fluoride in your drinking water to the above health issues.
These studies include:

Study #1: The National Research Council’s (National Academy) 2006 review,
Fluoride in Drinking Water: A Scientific Review of EPA’s Standards, reported
on the reasoning for the maximum contaminant level goal for fluoride in
drinking water, which had been set by EPA back in 1985. Even though EPA
erroneously misdirected the review committee in several circumstances, its report
unequivocally stated that dental fluorosis is an adverse health effect.

The report also stated that the standard of 4 mg of fluoride per liter of water
doesn’t protect against adverse health effects. The report also stated that
silicofluorides, which have been linked to several health conditions, should
be tested. The amount of fluoride required to cause harm to the health of the
most vulnerable populations is exceeded by the current levels of fluoride in our
drinking water.

This report contained detailed information about potential hazards to your health,
such as brain damage and endocrine dysfunction. To conclude, Dr. Robert J.
Carton wrote that the recommended Maximum Contaminant Level Goal should
be set at zero.

Study #2: The International Journal of Pediatric Dentistry, in a September, 2001

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 13
publication, reported that children in South Africa who drank water containing 3
ppm of naturally occurring fluoride had more dental decay than children living
in other parts of the country drinking water with much lower concentrations of
fluoride. American children were found to have twice the rate of cavities than
those South African children who drank lower levels of natural fluoride in their
water.

Study #3: Dr. Steven Levy, DDS, along with his team of researchers, learned
that fluoride destroys teeth from the inside out. His study focused on children four
years old and younger. In this study, published in the Journal of the American
Dental Association, reported that exposure to excessive levels of fluoride leads to
dental fluorosis.

Dr. Levy wrote that, during the first four years of a child’s life, fluoride ingestion
was significantly related to fluorosis. Infant formulas made with fluoridated water
give infants 100 to 200 times more fluoride than do cow’s milk or breast milk.

Because of the health risks coming from fluoride exposure, you need to learn
ways of avoiding overexposure. You also have some healthier alternatives you
can use that decrease your exposure to fluoride.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 14
How to Avoid
Fluoride and What
are Some Healthy
Alternatives
You can avoid fluoride if you are concerned about its effects on your health and
that of your family. Of course, if you want to successfully avoid as much exposure
to fluoride as you can, you’ll need to think of as many ways you and your family
could be exposed so you can take the necessary steps.

• Buy non-fluoridated toothpaste

• Monitor your children as they brush their teeth. For children under 6 years
of age, teach them to spit everything out as they brush. Ask your dentist
about the advisability of using fluoridated toothpaste for children under 2
years of age

• Topical fluoride treatments are actually more effective than the fluoride
added to your drinking water. If you don’t object to an occasional exposure
of fluoride for your family members and yourself, then a topical fluoride
treatment every six months at your dental appointments should not be
worrisome. If your dentist recommends supplemental fluoride for your
children, you do have the option of refusing this

• Drink bottled water that lists its source as natural spring water. These
bottled waters have the lowest level of fluoride, but if you would like,
contact the bottler and ask them about the levels of fluoride

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 15
• If your water source is a private well, contact a reputable laboratory and
ask to have your water tested for fluoride levels

• Ask your community for the annual water report, which is called the
Consumer Confidence Report. This will show you the level of fluoride in
your municipal water

Now let’s dive in to a common question asked by people who want to eliminate
fluoride while drinking.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 16
Can you put a
water filter over
your kitchen sink to
purify the water?
Is it possible?
The only way you can remove fluoride from your
home’s water supply is to install an expensive
reverse osmosis filter. You would have to install
one for every faucet in your home. Not only do
you want to filter fluoride out of your drinking
water, you want to do the same for the water you
cook, clean, launder and bathe with. If you’re
wondering why to add these filters to your tub
and shower drains, you are capable of absorbing
contaminants, including fluoride, through your
skin as you bathe or shower.

Those carbon filters you buy at the discount store won’t remove fluoride from
your water. If you truly want to remove fluoride from your family’s water, the
reverse osmosis filters are one option.

Two other options include alumina defluoridation and distillation.

“Can I boil my water or freeze it to remove fluoride?” No. Instead of removing the
fluoride, these actions will only serve to concentrate the fluoride, which is exactly
what you do not want.

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 17
What Are Some
Other Ways to Avoid
Fluoride?
• Look at how your food can be exposed to fluoride. If this concerns you, an
option for your family might be to install a rainwater tank. Rainwater does
not have fluoride in it, so you can use this as your family’s water source.
Once you have set up your well, you’ll have to make sure your water is safe
to drink and used for cooking. Ensure that it is safe from contamination,
including chemical sources

Use an aboveground tank so surface runoff cannot contaminate your


rainwater. For the first rainfall after a dry spell, collect that water in a
diversion system. Use this water for gardening.

Start your own private vegetable garden. To nourish and water the
vegetables, use the water from your rainwater well.

If you plan to use your rainwater to prepare infant formula, check first with
a maternal-infant health nurse. You may have to have your water tested to
ensure that nitrates won’t be a problem for your baby.

• Packaged foods may contain fluoride, which you certainly don’t want in
your family’s diet. As much as you possibly can, choose whole foods.
Whole foods are foods in their natural state. Fruits, vegetables, and meats
with no added ingredients or fillers

• Buy a bread maker and make your own bread. Or find some bread recipes
you and your family like and make them, using your oven

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 18
• Avoid processed foods. Again, as much as you can, make meals and
desserts from scratch, using whole food ingredients

• Think back to when your mother cooked the meals you, your siblings and
parents enjoyed. Beef stews, chicken potpies, mashed potatoes, meatloaf,
fish, casseroles, baked potatoes, French fries, and even homemade
desserts are options

To make these foods healthy, use unsaturated fats and monounsaturated


fats as much as you can. Stay away from the unhealthy food ingredients
that increase calorie and cholesterol counts.

• At home, school and in your office, avoid drinking water from water
fountains and the water faucet. Instead, buy and drink bottled water that is
bottled from a natural spring source

• If possible, have a whole-house reverse osmosis system installed at home.


This way, you know the fluoride is being removed from the water coming
into your home. Nobody is drinking or bathing in water containing fluoride.
You aren’t cooking with fluoride-contaminated water

• Look at the beverages you and your family drink, such as bottled instant
teas, sodas and others. These may contain fluoride that you don’t want
your family or you to be taking in. Because you now know the negative
effects that fluoride can have on your entire body, you need to reduce your
exposure as much as you can

• Buy and drink organic wine and grape juice. Traditional vineyards use
cryolite, a fluoride-containing pesticide. People who drink grape juices and
wines coming from these vineyards take in high amounts of fluoride as a
result. (According to the USDA, the average level of fluoride contained in
these beverages exceeded 2 ppm for white grape juice and white wine!)

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 19
For red wine, the levels are about 1 ppm

Raisins from traditional grapevines–those vines grown using non-organic


methods–contain about 2.3 ppm of fluoride

If you don’t want to pay the extra money for wines made from organic
grapes, opt for European-branded wines. If you and your family drink a lot
of grape juice and eat a lot of raisins, buy organic

• Enjoy teas made using green and black teas? Be careful! These
beverages, particularly the bottled and instant, come from tea plants that
are capable of accumulating high levels of fluoride

Some of these teas also contain high levels of antioxidants, which can
protect you against toxic levels of fluoride

If this still worries you, look for teabags and tea leaves made with younger
leaves, such as white tea. The antioxidants in young tea leaves are much
higher than they are in older green and black leaves. You’ll get the best
health benefits of tea without opening yourself or your family to the negative
effects of fluoride

• Drink yerba mate. This is an herbal, caffeinated tea from South America
containing very low amounts of fluoride

• Throw out your non-stick pans that have been made with the Teflon
coating. The coating can deeply increase the fluoride contents of the foods
you cook in them. Instead, use stainless steel

• When you develop a bacterial infection, if your doctor wants to prescribe


Cipro, ask him for an alternative that is just as effective. It turns out
that many of the pharmaceutical medications on the market today are

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 20
fluorinated. They have a carbon-fluorine bond that, while it is usually strong
enough to resist being broken down in your body, it can break down. Some
of these fluorinated meds, if they break down, will metabolize into fluoride
inside your body. Other fluorinated medications include anesthetics such as
Sevoflurane and Isoflurane, Flecainide, Niflumic acid and Voriconazole. As
your doctor if he can prescribe non-fluorinated alternatives if you take any
of these

• Steer clear of fluoridated salt. Currently, in the U.S., fluoridated salt is not
sold

• Avoid mechanically deboned chicken. In the deboning process, bone


particles are introduced into the meat. This increases your exposure to
fluoride. Buy whole chicken and take the meat from the bones at home

www.101ToxicFoodIngredients.com 21
Conclusion
Now that you know the truth about drinking fluorinated water, it is time to use this
material and avoid this silent killer at all cost. If you must, re-read this report as
your health, longevity and life depends on it.
