Fluoride causes brittle bones after years of intake and there is actually going to be a debate over whether it should be taken out of the drinking water?
Dentists don't want it in there and no it's not because they'd like more business from the cavity count.
Fluoride is pitting and staining your child's teeth.
My child's teeth look like that. The worse part is I helped them become that way. I'd fuss and make her brush them again because of the brown staining. I though she was just being lazy about cleaning them.
Fail! As she would say.
The epidemic of brittle bone disease now makes a tad more sense doesn't it.
I don't remember back in my grandparents day so many hips being broken,people where definitely much more hardy, and know I understand why.
They weren't taking in fluoride.
In a remarkable turnabout, federal health officials say many Americans are now getting too much fluoride because of its presence not just in drinking water but in toothpaste, mouthwash and other products, and it's causing splotches on children's teeth and perhaps more serious problems.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced plans Friday to lower the recommended level of fluoride in drinking water for the first time in nearly 50 years, based on a fresh review of the science.
