Fluoride Overdose In Your City?
Article Source: HealthSnare.com
If 300,000 liters of fluoride-polluted water was deposited into your drinking supply, you would hope officials would tell you immediately so you could take proper measures not to consume it. That was not the case in Queensland, Australia, when in 2009 that very thing happened. Instead of warning people of the risks, they claimed the risk of illness was minimal.
In Queensland, the fluoride law includes a clause stating that citizens are not allowed to seek compensation if they have medical problems due to fluoride. If fluoride isn't harmful, why would that clause be necessary?
With this particular fluoride leak, 20 times the permissible amount of fluoride was dumped into the water supply. It took nearly two weeks before residents knew about it. It's awful that a government would keep their citizens in the dark for so long about such a serious subject.
Fluoride is commonly added to toothpaste and drinking water today, but before that it was used as an insecticide and rat poison. This pollutant is unsafe to consume, but government officials and our dentists tell us it's beneficial and fights tooth decay. This isn't true though. Studies done in non-fluoridated areas have no higher rates of tooth decay than those with fluoride.
But there are some shocking differences between the two. Those communities who consume more fluoride have higher levels of Alzheimer's, neurotoxicity, bone cancer and other diseases. Fluoride destroys the brain, bones, kidneys and more.
There is a way to avoid drinking fluoride even if you live in a city that adds it to the water. You need a water purifier, but not just any one will cut it. Most filters don't eliminate fluoride.
Make sure the filter you buy includes a fluoride water filter and a guarantee to remove this harmful poison. It must also promise to remove other bad chemicals and contaminants while keeping in the minerals. In other words, it needs to remove bad substances and keep in good substances.
With a filter like this, you won't have to worry if 20 times more fluoride than normal is in your water supply. Even small amounts of fluoride are harmful, so be sure to drink safe, fluoride-free water.
