Default Corning: Reject Fluoridation

Corning's city council is prepped to start adding fluoride chemicals into your drinking water unless you tell them not to. They refuse to invite experts on the hazards of fluoride from speaking on your behalf and therefore preserving your tax dollars as well as your health.

You may want to go to the city council meeting on Tuesday night and make them show you if any resident of Corning is fluoride deficient. Virtually every food and beverage contains fluoride and the EPA is allowing even more into the food supply by increasing the levels of sulfuryl fluoride pesticide residues allowed on foods.

Even Attorney General Eliot Epitzer writes to the EPA that ""...the [fluoride] tolerances established by EPA are not sufficiently protective against adverse health effects,"

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control found that from 1/3 to 1/2 of all US schoolchildren ingest too much fluoride already and have dental fluorosis - white spotted, yellow and brown and sometimes pitted teeth.

At the same time tooth decay rates are increasing.

The CDC also tells us that fluoride ingestion confers no benfits and that fluoride gets into enamel by getting abosrbed into the teeth topically only. Adverse effects occur upon ingestion.

The fluoride most used for fluoridation are silicofluorides - impure waste products of phosphate fertilizer manufacturing - that have never been safety tested in humans or animals.

Silicofluorides are linked to higher blood lead levels and higher blood lead levels are linked to higher rates of tooth decay.

Nothing wrong with fluoride. Do you want your teeth to rot out like in Alabama?

I don't think Flouride is a bad thing, some people just don't trust the government to put things in the water.. or even if its not an issue of trust.

It seems the concensus is that flouride helps the teeth.. this dude seems to think it doesn't.

Or if they are on the more OUT THERE end of things.. I've heard people say flouride makes people more docile and more easily able to be controlled by the government or something like that.. .
Not that I would doubt the government capable of doing something like that if true.. I think it really is for dental reasons. (tho then again.. I have dental probs and the water here is flouridated already.... )

Everyone has a theory on how the government is trying to control us. I don't think they'd use flouride to do it. More than likely they would hire aliens to abduct us and turn our bodies into miniature oil manfacturing plants.

Sorry for my silly insite. I was watching something on TV yesterday about alien abductions. Just thought I'd throw it into the mix.
