Flouride Toxicity Warnings -- Are you lowering your child's IQ?? New Study Reveals.....
I started reading the effects of flouride on our health (which causes cancer, by the way), about 15 years ago. I read the studies that flouride was originally used in an emergency situation where there was a bacteria/parasite in the drinking water of a town in Wisconsin that was killing people. They decided to use flouride as an extreme measure to kill this particular parasite and then somehow this poison was incorporated into our drinking water and put on our teeth!
When I go to the dentist and tell them that I don't want flouride, I don't want mercury and I don't want x-rays, I am not the most popular patient, but if more people were aware of these dangerous practices, more people would ask.
The 3 main exposures to flouride are: drinking water (and showering, of course); dentist's offices and toothpaste (and yes, even some of the so-called good natural toothpaste companies are adding flouride).
Years ago, when I was not immunizing my children, the pediatricians actually asked me if I put my children in car seats? I think they were considering calling Child and Youth Services!!! Just be careful not to be brainwashed by what the mainstream doctors are telling us to do. In reality, what they were asking me to do was inject my children with poison and because I wouldn't do it, they were considering reporting me to an agency that could take my children away from me!!! Today, many people have chosen to make an educated choice and have chosen not to immunize. I am so glad of the progress that we have made as a nation in this area.
I am not about twisting individuals' arms one way or the other - I am about educating people who choose to be "wise" and at least make an educated decision. That is all I ask - look at both sides and make the choice that you want to make, but AT LEAST MAKE AN EDUCATED CHOICE!! It is amazing how people won't take a look at the facts and just keep following what the masses are doing as if they are zombies or something.
Repetition is the key to learning, so you will continually hear me say, MAKE AN EDUCATED CHOICE throughout my writings.
This is why I continually challenge individuals to open their Bibles for themselves to make sure that scripture is backing up what they are being taught. Eternity may be the price to pay with that one.
Okay, did you notice how I take little commercial breaks in my writings? Back to flouride.........
There is a new study that shows that exposure to fluoride may lower children's intelligence. Fluoride is added to 70 percent of U.S. public drinking water supplies.
More than 500 children aged 8 to 13 from two different towns were studied and tested. One city had fluoridated water, and the other did not.
Newswire reports:
"About 28 percent of the children in the low-fluoride area scored as bright, normal or higher intelligence compared to only 8 percent in the 'high' fluoride area ... in the high-fluoride city, 15 percent had scores indicating mental retardation and only 6 percent in the low-fluoride city." - Source PR Newswire December 21, 2010
If you live in the United States, more likely than not you're drinking tap water that contains added fluoride. The United States is one of only eight countries in the entire developed world that fluoridates more than 50 percent of its water supply, under the guise that it helps prevent and control tooth decay ...
The sad reality is, however, that there is practically no difference in tooth decay rates between fluoridated and non-fluoridated countries, and no difference between states that fluoridate a high versus low percentage of their water.
Yet, while fluoride in drinking water does NOT decrease rates of tooth decay, (again that is NOT) numerous studies show that this chemical has an array of devastating health effects that are being imposed on you and your family whether you like it or not. One of those risks, as Dr. Paul Connett, director of the Fluoride Action Network, recently reported, is lowered intelligence in your children.
Fluoride May Harm Your Child's Brain and IQ
Fluoride is known to interfere with basic functions of nerve cells in your brain. There are now numerous animal and human studies demonstrating the damage fluoride inflicts on your brain, including your glandular system - in particular your pineal gland. One of the main functions of this gland is your sleeping patterns.
The latest study even accounted for other potential variables, such as lead exposure, iodine deficiency or a history of brain disease or head injury.
Even after accounting for this, about 28 percent of the children in the low-fluoride area scored as "bright, normal or higher intelligence" compared to only 8 percent in the high-fluoride area. Further, 15 percent of children in the high-fluoride city had signs of mental retardation, compared with only 6 percent in the low-fluoride city.
· As Dr. Connett reported, there have been over 23 human studies and 100 animal studies linking fluoride to brain damage.
Some of these effects have been observed even at low levels of exposure, such as 1 part per million (ppm) of fluoride in water. This is below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) 'safe' drinking water level for fluoride, which is 4 ppm, and right around the levels used in water fluoridation programs, which Dr. Connett reports may range from 0.7-1.2 ppm.
