The government has been telling the public that fluoride is safe
and beneficial for people for over a half a century.
However, there is still controversy over the safety of fluoride
in the products and water people use. Fluoride is a toxin that is
a little less toxic than arsenic and more poisonous than lead. Over
90 percent of fluoridated water in the United States has never been
tested for safety, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has made the substance illegal to dump at sea, stating that fluoride
is a hazardous waste.
Researchers have found some dangerous side effects when humans
consume fluoride, which are:
- Fluoride disrupts the synthesis of collagen and leads to breakdown
in the bone, tendon, skin, cartilage, lungs, trachea, and kidney
- Fluoride inhibits the formation of antibodies in the blood,
which cause a disruptive effect on various tissues in the body,
which then confuses the immune system and causes it to attack
its own tissues
- Fluoride increases the tumor growth and the general cancer rate
- Fluoride has been linked to cancer, low IQ’s in children,
genetic disorders and muscle degeneration
The big question is, can the government be trusted when it comes
to our health?
