This is why Mercola should be questioned.

It was a HARVARD STUDY FUNDED BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF HEALTH.

Americans are doomed.
It was a study of 26 past studies.
"Conclusions: The results support the possibility of an adverse effect of high fluoride exposure on children’s neurodevelopment."

Aluminum is used in municipal water treatment plants for particulate control and to enhance the destructive neural effects of adding fluoride.

I always filter the aluminum out through coffee grounds.

And still that is not enough for you to question the practice of mass medicating the public drinking water?
Does everyone in Portland or San Diego have constant cavities?

I bet you agree with the Federal Government recently changing the recommended dosage by dropping it more than 25% but won't be against the practice altogether until they say so. That is no way to live-think for yourself.

Over 100 studies have found that fluoride exposure can damage the brain.

Fluoride Action Network | Brain


Serum-fluoride concentrations associated with high intakes from drinking-water may exceed 1 mg/L, or 50 Smol/L, thus more than 1000-times the levels of some other neurotoxicants that cause neurodevelopmental damage. Supporting the plausibility of our findings, rats exposed to 1 ppm (50 Smol/L) of water-fluoride for one year showed morphological alterations in the brain and increased levels of aluminum in brain tissue compared with controls ...

Dr. Phillippe Grandjean, Environmental Health Scientist at Harvard School of Public Health:

“Fluoride seems to fit in with lead, mercury, and other poisons that cause chemical brain drain. The effect of each toxicant may seem small, but the combined damage on a population scale can be serious, especially because the brain power of the next generation is crucial to all of us.”

But, we DO try to keep them away from lead.

We don't want a bunch of stupid idiots running around.
Don't forget aluminum too....gotta have the RDA of aluminum.

I am more concern with the effects of drug use on children of abusers and possible effect on violence and mental problems myself. But well water can be just as dangerous as can bad teeth.That stuff you see on toilet bowl ;is going into your body.

Yeah, gotta have your trace minerals.

I've switched from aluminum to molybdenum.

Moly is a good lubricant.

Aluminum binds.
