I HAVE been following the debate in Your say regarding fluoride, both back in 2007 and now.

I clearly remember in 2007 both Dennis Edmondson and Edward Priestley claiming that fluoride is a weedkiller and another correspondent to Your say expres
sing concern at this with the headline to the letter "Fluoride: It's a Weedkiller."

Barbara Sutcliffe (Your say, October 12) is correct when she says that botanically there is no such thing as a weed. For example dandelions can be a crop grown for making tea, soups, salad or dandelion and burdock fizzy drink, but when dandelions grow in our vegetable patch or flowerbeds we call them weeds. As she says plants are plants.

So Dennis Edmondson's claims that fluoride is a weedkiller while making crops such as cabbages grow exceedingly well and is contained in the fruit and vegetables we buy without killing them, but deadly to consume, is a contradiction of mammoth proportions exposed by Barbara Sutcliffe.

Dennis Edmo-ndson keeps accusing others, including Barbara Sutcliffe, of being ill-informed. It is now obvious he is the one who is ill-informed and has lost all credibility.

It makes you wonder, if the truth were known, how much more misinformation is being put out by the lobby groups.

It also makes you realise how sensible George Simpson's suggestion was ("Fluoride: let's wait for the unemotive facts") that any petition against fluoride should be made after the Calderdale NHS report next spring, not now.

This is a interesting video of what water fluoridation did to these people`s horses. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9RXfOuylWo

Mr Jones, do you really want this Muck in your water?

Fluorine is excellent at enzyme disruption and Dow chemical has 60 pesticides and herbicide products with this the deadly base. Many other companies also have product lines. The article lacks much in any form of logic.
The proof is in that ingested fluorides have little if any carie reduction ability. The NRC 2006 was 507 pages of studies showing documented risks at levels exceeded often by fluoridation levels alone. Then there is the issue of many other food sources which are not told to the public. There is ZERO doubt that too much fluoride damages tooth enamel as teeth form. The 1986-7 NIDR study was the largest in the US ever with 39,207 kids. It showed 66.4% of kids with evidence of fluoride toxicity damage. This was not shared with the public. The data also showed no meaningful difference in cavities in fluoridated or non fluoridated. KumarNY 2009 just looked at the data again and noted that those with the most dental fluorosis did not have less cavities either.
19 of the EPA science unions have asked congress to halt fluoridation because of fraud within the agencies.
The first request to halt fluoridation was in 1985 and 11 asked in 2005. Should we listen to professional whistle blowers or ignore the science?
The promoters I talk to are shocking ignorant of the studies but very aggresive to attack based upon lists of 6o year old endorsements. Far from professional or scientific. The last thing they want is a open debate on the science. I know this well from personal experience over 5 years of addressing this issue. Most follow talking points only as they really do not read the studies at all. Trust less ,research more.
The precautionary principle requires proof of safety for all.
The H2SiF6 is straight from smokestrack pollution scrubbers of phosphate fertilizer plants. The same plants in Florida years ago also produced most of the US uranium but now do not bother to recover it as it is not cost effective. That is why the product also contains many r

H2SiF6 is excellent at even 1ppm at leaching lead from any brass or older solder or even copper under some conditions. Depends upon the disinfectant used with some causing much greater corrosion and destruction of pipes. Maas 2007 and Coplan 2007 document this destructive process caused by fluoridation. This is the primary cause of lead in a homes water as it leaches slowly over nite or any time it sits for a while. PH is very critical also and the new chloramine the EPA is pushing is just evil at leaching lead.
Washington DC has this problem with lead levels hidden for almost three years at hundreds and thousands of times over the 15ppm limit. This cover up started in 2000 but the person who leaked the truth was fired. The CDC and EPA assisted in the cover up and the water engineer who documented the data was not paid as he would not aid the cover up. They ended up saying it was lead pipes but forgot to mention 100,000 homes without lead pipes had the same unsafe levels.
The CDC claimed not a single child was harmed. That was proven very wrong in a new study this year using different data as the health department claimed they lost all the lead data for 2003. And you want to wait and trust these people. Andy Burnham is every bit as dishonest. He cares little for the people he is paid to serve.
