I don't give a shit if fluoride is good for your teeth, if its under the "safe dosage" or not, I'm not drinking it. I want to minimize my daily POISON intake, alright? No matter how "low" it may be. You don't have to be a NUTJOB CONSPIRACY THEORIST OOO LOOK AT HIM, DOUBTING THE GOVERNMENT AND 364634 SCIENTISTS, just have to think for yourself. | ||

All they know is based on tests, but a test is only as accurate as the tester wants it to be. Everything is prone to corruption, falsification, and massive lies sustaining themselves. You have to be the decider on what is good for you or not, do not ever go by what others say. I have looked into it and from what I've seen, it's bad. Really bad. I'm not going to reiterate, cite sources, or anything. I don't care. I'm not taking something knowing that it is poison, safe levels or not. Even with all the testing in the world, with the best of intentions, even in that case, there just can't be an extensive experiment which considers the long term effects of fluoride build-up. Say 10 years, 20 years. Do their tests even last that long? There's not enough research, and there never will be. Because people are put up with their minds that it's ok, it's harmless. Is it really? No one can tell. All I know is that it's poison, and that, is admitted. | ||

a safe dose is, by definition, not poisonous. you question the quality of their experiments, but you have done no tests at all. in fact you base your opinion on absolutely nothing. | ||

Everything can be lethal in high enough doses, it is no comparison. A safe dose is as safe as the determination made by the tests done beforehand. If a control group does not die or suffer any collateral effects in X months after taking X amount, it's safe by those means. You base your opinion on those who believe in such tests. I don't believe in such tests, because they do not ever consider the long term effects. Fair enough? | ||

I love it when people claim to have done research and then turn around and say that they don't even know the basic facts of the studies... While you guys are worried about an approved water treatment that's been around for decades, many companies are literally dumping toxic waste into water supplies around the globe. They can get away with that shit because the people in developed nations are too distracted by tabloid conspiracy theories and just generally jerking each other off. | ||

There has been fluoride in the water supply in this country for decades with the only long term effect being an improvement in the teeth. I find it amazing that when the debate is (from like page 2 of the topic at least) how there is fluoride in drinking water and has been for decades you insist you don't trust it because it's untested on a large group of people for 10-20 years. Are you serious? We're talking about a sample size of hundreds of millions of people over several generations and you're saying the sample size isn't big enough to satisfy you that it's safe? Water will kill you if you drink too much. Chocolate is known to be toxic (everyone knows not to feed dogs chocolate because it's poisonous), it's just the lethal dose is more than any human generally consumes. The fact that an unsafe dose exists doesn't make the safe dose any less safe. Jeez. | ||

Chocolate is toxic shit. It is high in theobromine which will kill you if you ingest a large amount. Doesn't make the safe dose any less safe. Aren't you meant to be some kind of doctor? | ||

In terms of health fluoride is proved to improve dental health. While that may not be essential to survival (although as Frits mentioned earlier it used to be standard to get all your teeth removed and replaced age 21) it's certainly valuable in improving quality of life. Fluoride is definitely more useful than chocolate from a health perspective, while being about as dangerous. | ||

I found Idra's posts to be a breath of fresh air. The point of posting opinions is to submit them to criticism. Criticize the opinions, not the poster. EDIT: @Physician I'd like a clarification on what you mean. Are you saying that the teeth benefits have not been proven, or that other than that fluorine has no benefits? Are you saying that the quantities to which we are exposed are too great? | ||
