Too Much Fluoride?

by Health Sciences Institute (HSI), 02/15/08

Over Doing It
A company called DS Waters manufactures a product called Nursery - a steam distilled, purified bottled water for babies and infants. And when they've finished creating this pristine water what do they do? They add fluoride.

That's like manufacturing a pure, unadulterated ointment, and then packing a fly into every jar.

Here are some of the key revelations from the Scientific American report on fluoride:

Over-consumption of fluoride is common - in addition to our tap water, fluoride is added to toothpaste, mouthwash, medications, beverages, and even some foods.

Over-consumption of fluoride often causes dental fluorosis - a discoloring or pitting of the teeth.

A 16-year study that tracked 700 children showed that mild fluorosis was 50 percent more likely among children who lived in fluoridated areas compared to children who didn't drink fluoridated tap water.

Chinese studies have linked high fluoride intake with lower I.Q.

Studies with lab animals reveal that high fluoride intake may increase bone fracture risk.

A National Research Council (NRC) committee reviewed hundreds of fluoride studies and concluded that fluoride intake can alter endocrine function, especially in the thyroid.

That last item is arguably the most disturbing. The thyroid produces hormones that regulate metabolism and growth. The chair of the NRC committee told Dan Fagin, the author of the Scientific American piece, "The thyroid changes do worry me."
