The fluoride debate

Why are my patients reluctant to use fluoride?

I think patients may be reluctant at times because of historic uses that are widely documented. It was used at the end of World War Two in a plot to mass medicate drinking water. The aim? To slowly poison and desensitise a certain part of the brain in plans to communise the world.¹ It is also documented as the hazardous waste by-product of the nuclear and aluminium industries, as well as being an ingredient in Prozac² and Sarin Nerve Gas.³

What is fluoride?

Fluorine is the most electronegative and reactive of all the elements and hardly occurs in nature in its elemental form. It is a gas from the group known as halogens but is most frequently found when combined with another element. When fluorine is combined with Sodium it is known as Sodium Fluoride (NaF). When combined with Tin it is knows as Stannous Fluoride (SnF). Fluoride is commonly found in water, rocks, soil, tea and seafoods.⁴
