PROTECTING

Campaign Against Sulfuryl Fluoride
EXCLUSIVE: Water
Fluoridation "Obsolete" According to Nobel Prize Scientist
Did
you know? flouride
* Almost all of western
Europe has rejected water fluoridation.
* Fluoride's primary 'benefits'
are topical, not systemic. There is no
need to swallow fluoride.
* Children are receiving
too much fluoride today.
There is a need to reduce , not increase, current exposures.
* A growing body of evidence indicates
that water fluoridation is ineffective
and unnecessary .
* The fluoride chemical added to
water is an unprocessed, industrial
waste-product from the pollution scrubbers of the phosphate
fertilizer industry.
* Just as fluoride can damage cells
in developing teeth , fluoride
can damage cells in other organs
as well.
* Two-thirds of US communities,
when given the chance to vote ,
have voted against fluoridation. Over
70 US communities have rejected water fluoridation since
1999.
