Even a friend from San Diego was devastated as she had a wonderful organic garden going and S.D. went along with the rest of Ca fluoridated S.D. waters. Her garden was no longer very organic.
Grew up with homegrown garden veggies using the same well water. Visited friends and family. Well water.

You have an axe to grind. It’s okay. But, your axe doesn’t make you right.

Both my wife and I drank tap water in NYC and got all our vaccinations. She is a doctor, I am a manager in analytics for a world renown org in Boston with 2 teams reporting to me and also teach analytics part time at an Ivy league university. This is definiteve proof that fluoride is fantastic and beneficial and vaccinations improve the mind. So I conclude that it is best to add fluoride to your water and food and get vaccinated 3 times.

I've known since I was a kid in the 60's that fluoride is added to water in some places. When I was an infant, we lived in places with very high natural fluoride. As a result, my teeth have always been discolored, and very hard. I now have to do daily fluoride treatments to offset the effects of radiation treatments I had for cancer. I doubt there are many real side effects.

I'm 79 and had the necessary smallpox to get into 1st grade and am NEVER sick. And I do buy into the alt world of medicine. Our govt is not always our health friend...govt is very involved in the fluoride crap. The history is dark and deep.
Lucky you. If my Dad was still alive (he died at 86), he could tell you about the kids he knew as a child that died from vaccine preventable diseases like whooping cough, diphtheria, etc.

Whatever. My 15 year old has had all of the vaccinations, and is healthy as heck. Very few colds, no flu, etc.

My dad (born in 1924 and still alive) almost died of diphtheria as a small child. His aunt died in the influenza epidemic of 1918. One of my friends is alive, but in a wheelchair from paralysis due to polio. All preventable.

I don't believe for a second that vaccines harm the immune system. My kids are fully vaccinated. They're never sick. Ages 18, 15, and 13, and we've had exactly one round of antibiotics for one kid due to an ear infection at 16 months. Since we're former homeschoolers, we knew lots of unvaxed kids, and I can tell you all kinds of stories about their recurring ear infections, frequent colds, asthma, eczema, etc. etc.

I grew up my whole life on flouridated water and so I was used to people having good teeth. Occasional small cavities here and there weren't unheard of, but for the most part everyone around me, rich and poor, had good teeth. I recently moved to a region of the country where everyone has well water, and it's as if I've moved to England. Everyone has terrible teeth. Some have a mouth just full of fillings, and others have teeth that look nearly clear, as though they never fully developed.

It's really surprising to see and also disappointing because I don't want my kids to have bad teeth. I make sure they brush with flouride twice per day, but that's not really enough apparently. I asked the local dentist about it and since she makes her Porsche payments from bad teeth, she said "flouride is bad for you". When I mentioned to a previous dentist that we'll be moving to a no-flouride area he made it sound like the biggest emergency in the world and said that we need to get the kids on supplements ASAP.

Honestly?

What is Fluoride?
Fluoride is a natural mineral found throughout the earth's crust and widely distributed in nature. Some foods and water supplies contain fluoride.

Fluoride is often added to drinking water to help reduce tooth decay. In the 1930s, researchers found that people who grew up drinking naturally fluoridated water had up to two-thirds fewer cavities than people living in areas without fluoridated water. Studies since then have repeatedly shown that when fluoride is added to a community's water supply, tooth decay decreases. The American Dental Association, the World Health Organization and the American Medical Association, among many other organizations, have endorsed the use of fluoride in water supplies because of its effect on tooth decay.
