Hi Steve,
A while back someone posted an article about making a magnesium fluid by
adding MOM to seltzer water. Can some of that fluid be used for removing
fluoride?
Thanks.

Dan,
Magnesium may be what you are looking for. It appears that if you add a
small amount of a soluble magnesium to water and agitate, it will form
an insoluble compound with the fluoride and greatly reduce the
bioavailability of the fluoride. I didn't mention this possibility
before because I kept seeing conflicting information in the studies. But
I think that given the study I posted below, that magnesium is a good
approach to use with drinking water.

There may be some substance to Prill beads reducing the absorption of
fluoride by forming an insoluble complex with the fluoride. But the
science isn't completely understood. See below.

Influence of Dietary Magnesium on Fluoride Bioavailability in the Rat
http://jn.nutrition.org/cgi/reprint/117/3/496.pdf
"Several observations suggest that the magnesium content of a diet may
influence food fluoride absorption. Magnesium and fluoride, for example,
form an insoluble complex in vitro (6). Simultaneous administration of
magnesium and fluoride by gastric intubation has been shown to
significantly reduce skeletal
uptake of fluoride by growing rats (7, 8), which may explain why high
dietary magnesium appears to ameliorate fluorosis in guinea pigs (9). On
the other hand, Spencer et al. (10) were unable to demonstrate a
significant effect of orally administered magnesium oxide on either
fecal or urinary fluoride excretion in human volunteers. Factors that
may account for this apparent discrepancy between animal and human
studies include the age of the test subject, level and chemical form of
magnesium and route of administration of fluoride and magnesium. In the
human study, for example, subjects were adults, whereas studies of the
magnesium and fluoride relationship in rats occurred during a period of
rapid growth. Animal studies involving gastric intubation utilized
water-soluble magnesium chloride and the magnesium and fluoride were
administered together, whereas in the human study magnesium was
insoluble magnesium oxide and the magnesium and fluoride were not
simultaneously present in the diet."

Thanks for this Steve. I will read up on it.
