Water Fluoridation - Fluoride in the UK
Well, my first post in a while, I have been looking at various things and am ready to write about them. This article is based on research by a friend, Freeman Stuart
The first issue is the state of our water
The second is the hole through which we ingest it.
The third is the issue of Laws which I will leave for another post coming soon.
*************
Fluoride inhibits neuromuscular activity,
Gives kidney problems
IQ of children is lowered in fluoridated areas.
Formula made with fluoridated water contains 250 times more fluoride than the concentration found in human breast milk in non-fluoridated areas
The United States Pharmacopoeia lists some of the side effects from drinking 1 to 2 pints daily of municipally fluoridated water. The list includes: nausea, bloody vomit, faintness, stomach cramps, tremors, constipation, aching bones, stiffness, skin rash, weight loss, and brown or black discoloration of the teeth.
Buy a reverse osmosis filtration unit and charge it to the water company.

*************
What is in our water and why?
Fluoride
What's Fluoride anyway?
Element in earths crust. 13th most abundant.
It is always in combination with other minerals.
Two compunds of fluoride used in UK water.
* hexafluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6) also known as fluorosilicic acid
* disodium hexafluorosilicate (Na2SiF6) also known as sodium fluorosilicate
Found in solid form in
Fluorspar (also called fluorite) is found in most parts of the world. It is a mineral containing between 30 to 98 percent calcium fluoride.
Cryolite is a compound of aluminium, sodium, and fluoride. Because of its low melting point, it is preferred for industrial use, but is not a major source of fluoride for water fluoridation.
Apatite is a deposit of a mixture of calcium compounds, including calcium phosphates, calcium fluorides, and calcium carbonates. Apatite contains between 3 to 7 percent fluoride and is the main source of fluorides used in water fluoridation.
Poison
(Lowe, L.T., The Student’s Handbook to Animal Nutrition Littlebury & Company Ltd, The Worcester Press, Worcester),
published around 1949, fluorine is classified as a ‘Harmful Mineral Element’ and ‘a cumulative poison’.
Sodium Fluoride cannot be assimilated by the body. It becomes instant poison, because it cannot be eliminated without much extra effort from the kidneys. This means that there is always a build-up in the system. Allegedly kidney patients have died in the same way as rats, because they need to drink a great deal of water to flush out the toxins, a job that their malfunctioning kidneys find impossible. They are consuming a greater quantity of Sodium Fluoride than the average person in a shorter timespan, and some have found the strain on their systems too great.
UK toothpaste packages warn to use only a pea-sized piece and to supervise children to make sure they do not swallow. In the US, all fluoride toothpastes are obliged to carry a distinct poison warning.
UK COUNCILS AGAINST FLUORIDE. The Status of Fluoridation Chemicals in UK and EC Legislation, said
"The fluorosilicates used for water fluoridation are complex inorganic derivatives of hydrofluoric acid (HF). HF is a very toxic and corrosive poison, and its derivative, the fluorosilicic acid used very widely to fluoridate public water supplies, is a very hazardous substance whose handling, transport and use are strictly regulated under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002. Sodium fluorosilicate ('silicofluoride') is a Part II poison whose administration to any person is forbidden under the Poisons List Order 1982, whilst fluorosilicic acid contains up to 15% by volume of HF, which is also a listed Part II poison under the Act. The administration of either substance, or of any substance containing them, to the public is forbidden under the Poisons Act 1972, and constitutes an assault under the provisions of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861"
Patent for rat and insect poison applied for in 1921.
Why do we put this in our water?
NHS tells us "Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that is found in water and some foods. Fluoride can also be synthesised (manufactured) by using chemical processes, and synthetic fluoride is used in toothpaste. It is also sometimes added to drinking water in very small quantities."
and
"In the UK, the Department of Health and The British Dental Association (BDA) recommend that fluoride should be added to tap water because of its proven oral health benefits, particularly in promoting the development of healthy teeth in children, and significantly reducing the incidence of tooth decay."
and
Fluoride has two important properties:
* it helps repair damaged tooth enamel, and
* it helps eliminate the bacteria and plaque in your mouth."
UK
There are many UK councils that are opposed to water fluoridation,
see http://www.ukcaf.org/ (UK councils against fluoride)
The Midlands, the Newcastle area and Yorkshire areas are all artificially flouridated water supplies.
Birmingham was the first to be flouridated in 1964.
Health Secretary Alan Johnson has called for fluoride to be added to England's water supplies as a key means of tackling tooth decay.
He wants strategic health authorities (SHAs), which are already able to compel water companies to add the chemical, to use those powers.
Southampton is the next target.

Is it good for teeth?
www.ukcaf.org says
Fluoride is not essential for human growth and development, and the fluoride content of the body is not under physiological control.
www.fluoridealert.org reports
The CDC’s concession, in 1999 and 2001, that the predominant benefit of fluoride in reducing tooth decay is TOPICAL and not SYSTEMIC. To the extent fluoride works to reduce tooth decay, it works from the outside of the tooth, not from inside the body. It makes no sense to drink it and expose the rest of the body to the long term risks of fluoride ingestion when fluoridated toothpaste is readily available.
York Report
This 110 page report, known as the York Report, is being touted by proponents as giving fluoridation a clean bill of health.
Highlights of the report.
Reviewed 3,231 studies - rejected 93% or 3,017 studies - used 214 studies.
Of these studies selected, the vast majority were graded as Level C "poor quality with a risk of bias." None reached the highest quality (Level A).
Excludes ALL animal and toxicological studies.
Ignored the question of Total Fluoride Intake from all sources.
At a water fluoride level of 1.0 ppm, the prevalence of fluorosis was estimated to be 48%.
What are the side effects?
There are many side effects that are thought to be attributable to fluoride, but because of the lack of quality studies and reviews into the side effects it is difficult to say for definate,
Fluoride is known to be a cumulative poison, and a neurotoxin.
Dental Fluorosis, White and brown spots appear on the enamel of the teeth - causing a 'mottled' effect. This is the first sign that fluoride has poisoned enzymes in the body.
Links to ostio-sarcoma, a rare form of bone disease, have been made,
Joint and bone aches, which are known to disapear when the individual stops using fluoridated water,
It has recently been discovered that fluoride effects the pineal gland in the brain, and can calcify it.

The list includes: nausea, bloody vomit, faintness, stomach cramps, tremors, constipation, aching bones, stiffness, skin rash, weight loss, and brown or black discoloration of the teeth.
The 1991 Physicians' Desk Reference lists some of the same side effects from administered doses of fluoride.
The acceleration of the aging process by fluoride occurs at the bio-chemical level by means of:
1. enzyme inhibition;
2. collagen breakdown;
3. genetic damage; and/or
4. disruption of the immune system per se.
Fluoride damages enzymes which results in a wide range of chronic diseases. Fluoride as low as 1 ppm causes breakdown of collagen, the most abundant of the body's protein at 30%. It also leads to irregular formation of collagen which serves as a major structural component of skin, ligaments, tendons, muscles, cartilage, bones and teeth.
Fluoride interacts with the bonds which maintain the normal shape of proteins. With distorted protein, the immune system attacks it's own protein, the body's own tissue. Fluoride (at 1 ppm) in drinking water:
1. damages the immune system by inhibiting the migration rate of white blood cells to infected areas;
2. interferes with phagocytosis (the destruction of bacteria and other foreign agents by white blood cells); and
3. induces the release of superoxide free radicals in resting white blood cells.
This fluoride-induced interference leads to an increased and more prolonged exposure of the body to foreign materials and leads to the release of free radicals which damage the body and leads to a further acceleration of the aging process.
The Use Of Fluoridation For Mass Mind Control
The following letter was received by the Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, Milwaukee Wisconsin, on 2 October 1954, from Mr. Charles Perkins, a chemist:
"Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of fluoride will in time reduce an individual`s power to resist domination, by slowly poisoning and narcotizing a certain area of the brain, thus making him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him."
"I was told of this entire scheme by a German chemist who was an official of the great IG Farben chemical industries and was also prominent in the Nazi movement at the time. I say this with all the earnestness and sincerity of a scientist who has spent nearly 20 years` research into the chemistry, biochemistry, physiology and pathology of fluorine--any person who drinks artificially fluorinated water for a period of one year or more will never again be the same person mentally or physically." CHARLES E. PERKINS, Chemist, 2 October 1954.
