Feeling a Little Stupid Lately?
THE UNITED NATIONS World Health Organization (WHO) actively promotes
the use of fluoride in water purification, beverages, toothpaste, mouthwash,
topical gels, dietary supplements and food. If the WHO advocates fluoride that
is reason enough to avoid any products containing fluoride. But the medical
journal, Neurotoxicology and Teratology Vol 17, No.2, 1995 provide urgent
compelling reasons.
Researchers Phyllis J. Mullenix, Department of Toxicology, Forsyth Research
Institute, Boston; Ann Schunior, also of Forsyth; Pamela K. Denbesten, Depart-
ment of Pediatric Dentistry, Eastman Dental Center, Rochester, New York, and
William J. Kernan, Veterinary Diagnosis Laboratory, Iowa State University
asserted that "There have been reports from Chinese investigators that high
levels of fluoride in drinking water (3 to 11 ppm -- parts per million) affect the
nervous system directly without first causing physical deformations from
skeletal fluorosis." [Emphasis added.]
"One study of adult humans," states their report, "found attention affected by
sublingual drops containing 100 ppm of sodium fluoride [NaF], an exposure level
potentially relevant to humans, because toothpastes contain 1000 to 1500 ppm
and mouth washes contain 230 to 900 ppm fluoride. Also," they continue" effects
on behavior were related to levels of fluoride found in plasma and in different
regions of the brain." The observers found that it was fluoride levels in plasma,
not fluoride levels of exposure, which best predicted effects on behavior. They
observed that "similar plasma fluoride levels... have been found in humans
ingesting 5 to 10 ppm fluoride in drinking water...."
The authors point out that theirs is the first laboratory study to demonstrate that
the central nervous system's functional output is vulnerable to fluoride and that
fluoride accumulates in brain tissues. Speaking of the conclusions drawn from
their study of fluoride use and toxicity levels the authors state, "A generic
behavioral pattern disruption as found in this study can be indicative of a
potential for motor dysfunction, IQ deficits and/or learning disabilities in humans."
Dr. Frank Bertrand of Stilfontein, South Africa, commenting on the
Neurotoxicology and Teratology study notes: "Fluoride is a very strong oxidizing
agent and wiII destroy vitamin E and other anti-oxidents... but most dangerous of
all is probably the fluoride gel used in dental surgery. The WHO recommends a
2.72% NaF [also known as acidulated phosphate fluoride]." That is 12,300 ppm!
"Fluoride in an acid medium," continues Dr. Stilfonrein, "tends to produce the
very corrosive hydrofluoric acid, which will attack and eat its way through glass.
Dental gel delivered to surgery in acid resistant plastic containers is left in the
mouth for four minutes. Some of this highly concentrated NaF is swallowed.
Dr. S. Gibson, Research Physician, Glasgow Homeopathic Hospital, states that
fluoride reacts with hydrogen bonds in biological molecules to form HF
(hydrofluoric acid) bonds, with adverse physiological effects at very low
concentrations, well below 1 ppm. Dr. Stilfonein further notes that cancers
usually attributable to cigarette use (i.e., lung and mouth) were, for all practical
purposes, absent before fluoridation of water in Britain in the early 1950s, then
increased exponentially several years after fluoridation was introduced.
[Try this little experiment. Go to your local water purification plant and inquire
how to purchase, oh, say, one ounce of pure NaF (sodium fluoride.) Tell them
you have a well and wish to treat your water for your children's "oral wellness."
When you get out of the federal slammer after being indicted under various
nuclear non-proliferation treaty acts for soliciting the sale of nuclear "byproducts"
and one of the most toxic neurological poisons known to man, write us a letter
and let us know how it went. Editor.]
