WATER FLUORIDATION —
OVERVIEW & IMPLICATIONS
Errors & Omissions
Trillions of dollars have been spent during the last 60 years
promoting artificial water fluoridation around the world.
Yet very few countries adopted the practice and many of these
have since discontinued it, – with no increase in tooth decay.
Only 5% of the world’s population has opted for
their municipal water to be fluoridated.
FLUORIDATION — THE WRONG DIRECTION
THE MONEY SPENT ON FLUORIDATION AND ITS PROMOTION
should have been spent and research, into nutrition, vitamin K2
(menaquinone) the anti-caries properties of vanadium,
strontium 38 (not strontium 90), molybdenum, phosphorus,
calcium, magnesium, ‘good’ mouth bacteria
(oral microbiological antibodies), and finally the ultimate –
stimulation of gums to grow more teeth, – tissue engineering.
The harmful implications of poor nutrition in assoiciation with fluorides, as well as
the damaging effects of lead, (old roofs and solder in rainwater tanks, [Australia]
Copper, Cadmium, Aluminium, Arsenic, Beryllium,
Chromium, Iron, Mercury, and Nickel have been virtually ignored.
Over 400 medications increase tooth decay.
Medical and dental schools need to update their text books
to keep up with recent overseas research on fluoridation.
→ Calcium fluoride can be found naturally in some waters. ←
It is almost insoluble and is not easily absorbed,
but is a problem, see research paper and chart ←
—oooOOOooo—
The chemicals mostly used to fluoridate drinking water are
waste products derived from the manufacture of
phosphate fertilizer. Fluorine is the most
reactive, electronegative element and
it’s never found alone in nature.

D) International research now reveals fluoride damages teeth.
E) There is not a single biological process in the human body that requires
fluoride, including the development of healthy teeth.
F) A multi-million dollar U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH)

amount of fluoride ingested by children.
G) Fluoridation is a failure to apply the Precautionary Principle.
H) It is a violation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the
European Union 2000.
I) Fluoride bio-accumulates.
J) Water fluoridation is mass medication without prescription.
The dosing of public water supply with fluoride is default medication,
since you have to deliberately avoid it if you do not want to take it.
A person’s daily intake of fluoride simply from drinking
an average quantity of fluoridated tap water,
fluoridated bottled water, and beverages produced or
prepared with fluoridated water can easily exceed the
threshold for what your pharmacist would rightly
demand a prescription for.
K) Most of the industrialized world abandoned or dismissed this pseudo-scientific
practice decades ago, along with DDT, mercury, lead, thalidomide and asbestos usage.
L) The fluoride in toothpaste (and mouth rinses) is medication.
It may be intended as topical, but the reality is different -
❝ No matter how carefully toothpaste may be applied to their teeth,
young children are going to swallow it. - Indeed, most of the
public and the dental profession already have ! ❞

‘ Natural Fluoride ’ Also Causes Health Problems:
Calcium fluoride - CaF2 – occurs naturally, although mostly in relatively small amounts, in some rivers, wells and bore waters, as does arsenic. However this ‘natural’ fluoride can cause health problems. Excessive fluoride concentrations have been reported in the ground-waters of more than 20 countries including in India where 19 states are facing acute fluorosis problems. Large numbers of people in Japan, China, India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Mexico and Africa develop dental fluorosis, a biomarker for crippling skeletal fluorosis and other fluoride induced health abnormalities. Skeletal fluorosis is a crippling bone disease caused by fluoride exposure. Millions of people world-wide are afflicted. It also affects animals foraging on contaminated feed (air pollution) and consuming water from some underground sources.
Fluorine (F.), a member of the halogen family, is the most electronegative and reactive of all the elements of Periodic Table. Elemental fluorine does not exist in nature but forms inorganic and organic compounds called fluorides representing approximately 0.06–0.09% of the Earth’s crust. Fluorides are released into environment by both natural ♦ and anthropogenic processes; therefore, their concentrations in the environment are highly variable. F. is 14th by weight in abundance as an element in the earths crust.

The amount released will depend on the material being burnt or smelted e.g. “dirty” brown coal releases more
F. into the air than the hard “clean” coal anthracite.
Fluorides are released into the environment via coal combustion and process waters and waste from various industrial
processes, including steel manufacture, primary aluminium, copper and nickel production, phosphate ore processing,

FLUORINE is a yellowish, poisonous, highly corrosive gas.
It is the most chemically active nonmetallic element
and is the most electronegative of all the
elements. Because of its extreme
reactivity, fluorine does not
occur uncombined
in nature.
SULFURYL FLUORIDE SO2F2
The use of the fluoride-containing pesticide, sulfuryl fluoride as a food fumigant (trade name ProFume ®) as well as the fluoridation of drinking water, also contribute to the release of fluoride from anthropogenic sources. Based on available data, phosphate ore production and use, as well as aluminium manufacture are the major industrial sources of fluoride release into the environment.
Sulfuryl fluoride (SO2F2) is a radiatively active industrial chemical released into the atmosphere in significant (ktonne/year) quantities. The potential for SO2F2 to contribute to radiative forcing of climate change needs to be assessed. Long path length FTIR/smog chamber techniques were used to investigate the kinetics of the gas-phase reactions of Cl atoms, OH radicals, and O3 with SO2F2, in 700 Torr total pressure of air or N2 at 296 ± 1 K. Upper limits of k(Cl + SO2F2) < 9 × 10−19, k(OH + SO2F2) < 1.7 × 10−14 and k(O3 + SO2F2) < 5.5 × 10−24 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 were determined. Reaction with Cl atoms, OH radicals, or O3 does not provide an efficient removal mechanism for SO2F2. The infrared spectrum of SO2F2 is reported and a radiative efficiency of 0.196 W m−2 ppbv−1 was calculated. Historic production data estimates are presented which provide an upper limit for expected atmospheric concentrations. The radiative forcing of climate change associated with emissions of SO2F2 depends critically on the atmospheric lifetime of SO2F2.

WATER FLUORIDATION –
AN ERROR FROM THE LAST CENTURY
Fluorosis Is A Pathological Condition,
It Affects Humans And Animals.
Dental fluorosis is a biomarker of systemic toxic over-exposure to fluoride. It occurs during teeth formation in the presence of fluorides in air, water, or food, and is also an indicator of skeletal fluorosis, which can also occur after exposure later in life, after teeth formation, - however this will not be recorded on the teeth.

FLUORIDE AND THYROID FUNCTION
All fluoride compounds interfere with thyroid hormones and are factors in Hashimoto’s Disease. (Between 6% – 10% of Australians are affected by hypothyroidism which results in death after 10 to 15 years without medication.) The distortion of protein structure causes the immune proteins to fail to recognize body proteins, and so instigate an attack on them, which is Autoimmune Disease. Autoimmune diseases constitute a body of disease processes troubling many thousands of people:
Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus Erythematosus, Asthma and Systemic Sclerosis are examples. Fluoride causes thyroid antibodies to be produced, which cause Thyroiditis resulting in the common hypothyroid disease, Hashimoto’s Disease and the hyperthyroidism of Graves’ Disease.

Bromine, in its various forms, like fluorides are antagonists of iodine.
Bromines are in many ‘soft drinks’, breads, vegetable oils and
medications. Years of drinking sodas [soft drinks
containing bromides] and brominated
vegetable oils solidifies body fat
resulting in ‘morbid obesity’
plus risk of
“bromide intoxication – ‘brain fog’,
schizophrenia, delirium, and hallucinations…
Case Report: The patient presented with headache, fatigue, ataxia, and memory loss which progressed over 30 days. He consumed 2 to 4 L of cola containing brominated vegetable oil on a daily basis before presenting with these symptoms. His significantly elevated serum chloride, as measured by ion specific methods, and negative anion gaps were overlooked during a prior hospitalization and emergency department visits. A focal neurologic finding of right eyelid ptosis led to an extensive evaluation for a central nervous system lesion. The patient continued to deteriorate, until he was no longer able to walk. A diagnosis of severe bromism was eventually made and his serum bromide was confirmed at 3180 mg/L (39.8 mmol/L). Despite saline loading the patient failed to improve but subsequent hemodialysis dramatically cleared his clinical condition, and reduced his serum bromide levels. The unilateral eyelid ptosis, a rarely reported finding in bromism, also resolved with hemodialysis.
Conclusions:
A negative anion gap or an elevated serum chloride should prompt an evaluation for bromism.
In this case hemodialysis dramatically improved the patient’s clinical
condition and reduced the half-life of bromide to 1.38

FLUORIDE / IODINE
IN A NUCLEAR DISASTER
❝ … Many people are relatively deficient in iodine, and because of this they will readily absorb iodine from the environment. Your body is unable to recognize the difference between regular iodine and radioactive iodine. It will absorb them equally well. So if you are deficient in iodine and a radioactive cloud passes by, [Japanese nuclear crisis] your body will tend to suck that radioactive iodine into your thyroid gland to fill up its iodine stores.
In an ideal situation you will have been taking adequate amounts of iodine from safe sources which will not only protect you from radioactive iodine but from environmental toxins that can poison your thyroid gland like Fluoride, Bromine and Chlorine.
If you have not been taking iodine and a radioactive cloud comes near your area then it would make sense to take large doses of prophylactic iodine to prevent your thyroid gland from absorbing the radioactive iodine. However it is important to understand that the large dose of [potassium iodide] only protects your thyroid for one to three days, no longer and it does absolutely nothing to protect you from detoxifying the radiation… ❞

COLLAGEN IS THE BODY’S GLUE
AND FLUORIDE RUINS IT
When collagen breaks down, tissues simply lose their substance, their framework. Fluoride dissolves the body’s glue simply by preventing new collagen from being formed. John Yiamouyiannis, PhD., gives a masterful explanation of this in his work
→ ‘Fluoride The Ageing Factor’. ←
… Not only is the collagen incorrectly formed, it is wrongly mineralized.
Some collagen, like bones and teeth, should be mineralized in order
to give it hardness. Other collagen structures, like ligaments, tendons
and, and muscles, should not be mineralized, in order to keep
them flexible and resilient. Fluoride mineralizes the tendons,
and muscles and ligaments, making them crackly and painful
and inflexible. At the same time fluoride interferes with mineralization of
bones and teeth, causing osteoporosis and a premature health decline …
FLUORIDE PREMATURELY AGES THE BODY,
Mainly By The Distortion Of Enzyme Shapes:
When enzymes get twisted out of shape, they can’t do their jobs. This results in collagen breakdown, eczema, tissue damage, skin wrinkling, genetic damage, and immune suppression. Practically any disease you can name may then be caused. All systems of the body are dependent upon enzymes. When fluoride changes the enzymes, this can damage: immune system, digestive system, respiratory system, blood circulation, kidney function, liver function, brain function and thyroid function. These distorted enzymes are proteins, but now they have become foreign protein, which we know is the exact cause of autoimmune diseases, such as lupus, arthritis, asthma, and arteriosclerosis. Fluoride also accumulates in the organelles of animal cells and shuts down enzyme activity. . . Fluoride as a factor in cataracts has been established bystatistical studies of
Dr. Ionel F. Rapaport and confirmed by the research of Dr. Burgstahler.
Dr. Burgstahler.
This has also been confirmed by analysis of cataracted and
un-cataracted eye lenses.
The older the person, the more fluoride is in the lenses.
— It is therefor no surprise that recent research from

( Pubmed Data : Nucl Med Commun. 2012 Jan

that mass fluoride exposure may be to blame for the

Fluoridation involves the dumping of tones of industrial toxic waste into the drinking water supply systems of our state. Phosphate fertilizer plants produce large quantities of toxic waste (silicofluorides, “SiFs” – fluosilicic acid or hexafluorosilicic acid, H2SiF6, and sodium fluosilicate or silicofluoride, Na2SiF6), which are recovered and require neutralization and disposal. Normally it would cost several thousand dollars per truckload to do this. But it has been contrived for these unrefined products, with their heavy metal contaminants, to be sold for injection into the water supplies of compliant cities and governments, under the guise of reducing dental decay. Industry thus benefits from not having to pay for it’s disposal, and at the same time makes a tidy profit on the sale of this waste. (Estimated 2000% profit)…

damage from industrial air pollution – (fluorides)

♥ LEAD AND FLUORIDES
Silicofluorides contain more lead than sodium fluoride. Compared with NaF, SiFs cause more lead to be leached
from brass pipe and fittings and from the lead solder used to solder copper pipe and cast iron water mains.
For all these reasons SiFs should be disallowed as fluoridation materials.
→ see also Fluoridation & Lead ←
Once lead is consumed it pervades
the entire body, passing through the
Brain, Placental, and Mammalian Barriers.
There is a custom of using pipes for electrical grounding.
Many older houses are still grounded through metal water pipes.
This accelerates lead corrosion and also increases lead in drinking water.

It is to be hoped that the Minister for Health
sorts this matter soon.
The Australian Government Department responsible for this
matter, is derelict in its duty to the health of Australians by
permitting this abuse of the public water supply to continue.
‘The National Industrial Chemicals Notification and
Assessment Scheme’ (NICNAS) and The ‘Office of Chemical

It is a Division of the Australian Department of Health and Ageing established under
the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 (Cth). The TGA is responsible for conducting assessment
and monitoring activities to ensure that therapeutic goods available in Australia
are of an acceptable standard and that access to therapeutic advances is in a timely manner.

WITH CONTAMINATED RESEARCH
The marketing of water fluoridation has used promotion by endorsement, intimidation, biased research, censorship, propaganda, cover up, suppression of dissent, and fraud similar to those of Lead, Asbestos, DDT, Tobacco, Thalidomide, Dioxin and 245T. Two peer-reviewed studies, Neurotoxicology, December 2000; International Journal of Environmental Studies, September 1999, found an association between consumption of water containing hydrofluosilicic acid or sodium silicofluoride and -

RECYCLING PROBLEMS:
Recycled water adds an extra complication,
as tones of silicofluorides will be redeemed in the recycling process,
(if it is efficient enough), which leaves the government with
the disposal cost of these toxic industrial wastes.
Normal water [sewage] treatment WILL NOT remove fluorides,
which can result in this water being re-fluoridated by other cities

✹
Polunium-210 is soluble and is circulated through the body to every tissue and cell. The proof is that it can be found in the blood and urine of smokers. The circulating Polonium-210 causes genetic damage and early death from diseases reminiscent of early radiological pioneers: liver and bladder cancer, stomach ulcer, leukemia, cirrhosis of the liver, and cardiovascular diseases. The Surgeon General C. Everett Koop MD (USPHS) stated that radioactivity, rather than tar, accounts for at least 90% of all smoking-related lung cancers. – The Center for Disease Control stated “Americans are exposed to far more radiation from tobacco smoke than from any other source.” —
As little as 0.03 microcuries (6.8 trillionths of a gram) of

Alexander Litvinenko
The Death Of The Russian Former KGB (FSB) agent Alexander Litvinenko has been linked to the presence of a ‘major dose’ of radioactive Polonium-210 in his coffee. Traces of the radioactive substance were discovered at various locations in London visited by Mr. Litvinenko as well as in Russia and on two British Airways (BA) flights. His body was buried in a lead lined coffin. Dec. 2006
Yasser Arafat
24 August 1929 – 11 November 2004
By Adrian Blomfield, Middle East Correspondent, 03 Jul 2012
Tests performed by a laboratory in Switzerland found significant
traces of Polonium-210 on the late Palestinian leader’s clothes,
adding a new twist to a case that has obsessed the Arab world for years.
Polonium-210 is the same substance used to poison the
Russian dissident Alexader Litvinenko in London.
The claims are likely to renew long-held Palestinian suspicions that the Israeli spy
agency Mossad assassinated Arafat, who died in a Paris hospital in November, 2004.
The Institute de Radiophysique in Lausanne found elevated levels of the element on
Arafat’s personal effects. A urine stain in his underwear registered a level of
180 millibecquerels of Polonium-210, more than 20 times the dose to kill an
average human being. “I can confirm to you that we measured an unexplained,
elevated amount of unsupported Polonium-210 in the belongings of Mr Arafat
that contained stains of biological fluids,” Dr Francois Bochod, the director
of the institute, told Al Jazeera, the pan-Arab television station.
✹ Puff by puff, the poison Polonium-210,
builds up to the equivalent radiation dosage of
300 chest x-rays a year for a person who smokes
one and a half packs a day.
The presence of polonium in tobacco smoke has been known since the early 1960s.
Some of the world’s biggest tobacco firms researched ways to remove the
substance to no avail—over a 40-year period but never published the results.
Radioactive polonium-210 is contained in
phosphate fertilizers, and silicofluorides.

Some Pine Trees are very sensitive to fluorides and can be used as bio-indicators for air [soil and water] pollution. Some ferns and rain forest plants show sensitivity to fluoride when watered on their foliage.
Fluoride-induced injury (air pollution) to coniferous forests can occur at a distance of 32 km from an emitting source, and total destruction of some species at 13 km distance. Fluorides are released into the air in both a gaseous state (as hydrogen fluoride and silicon tetrafluoride) and in solid particles. The particles fall on, and the gases are absorbed by, vegetation near the polluting industry. If this vegetation includes forage crops, which are fed to cattle, sheep, horses, pigs, or kangaroos. (The EPA says fluoride from Alcoa’s aluminium smelter at Portland [Victoria] is making kangaroos sick. 23 Feb. 2010), serious problems can ensue, since these animals, particularly cattle are vulnerable to fluoride. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, “Airborne fluorides have caused more worldwide damage to domestic animals than any other air pollutant.” Huge compensation payments have been made, – mostly as out of court settlements.
❝ The thing to note with plants is that plants will readily absorb fluorine that is sprayed [(irrigation,) or falls] on the leaves. If flood [or drip] irrigation is used, the plants accumulate far less fluoride due to calcium absorption in the soil and the plant’s discriminatory uptake through the roots ❞

AQUATIC ORGANISMS & FLUORIDES
❝…Aquatic organisms living in soft waters may be more adversely affected by fluoride pollution than those living in hard or seawaters because the bioavailability of fluoride ions is reduced with increasing water hardness. Fluoride can either inhibit or enhance the population growth of algae, depending upon fluoride concentration, exposure time and algal species. Aquatic plants seem to be effective in removing fluoride from contaminated water under laboratory and field conditions. In aquatic animals, fluoride tends to be accumulated in the exoskeleton of invertebrates and in the bone tissue of fishes. The toxic action of fluoride resides in the fact that fluoride ions act as enzymatic poisons, inhibiting enzyme activity and, ultimately, interrupting metabolic processes such as glycolysis and synthesis of proteins. Fluoride toxicity to aquatic invertebrates and fishes increases with increasing fluoride concentration, exposure time and water temperature, and decreases with increasing intraspecific body size and water content of calcium and chloride. Freshwater invertebrates and fishes, especially net-spinning caddis fly larvae and upstream-migrating adult salmons, appear to be more sensitive to fluoride toxicity than estuarine and marine animals. Because, in soft waters with low ionic content, a fluoride concentration as low as 0.5 mg F-/l can adversely affect invertebrates and fishes, safe levels below this fluoride concentration are recommended in order to protect freshwater animals from fluoride pollution…❞

In 2009, China Banned Fipronil Products,
Citing Toxicity To Bees…
Fipronil (Manufactured by Bayer) is highly toxic for bees*, crustaceans,
insects and zooplankton, as well termites, rabbits, the fringe-toed
lizard and certain groups of gallinaceous birds.
It appears to reduce the longevity and
fecundity of female braconid
parasitoids.
… Fipronil -Fluocyanobenpyrazole, C12H4Cl2F6N4OS, is a slow-acting fluoride based poison. It is a broad spectrum insecticide that disrupts the insect central nervous system by blocking the passage of chloride ions through the GABA receptor and glutamate receptor I(GluCl), components of the central nervous system. This causes hyperexcitation of contaminated insects’ nerves and muscles.

A Victory for Bees in Europe!
Avaaz’s massive petition:
” Wind, rain or snow, we kept up the fight for our bees.”
After more than two years of tireless campaigning, we played a key role in getting Europe to ban bee-killing pesticides, at least until 2015! This victory came from two years of flooding ministers with messages, launching a massive petition with over 2.6 million signatures, organising media-grabbing protests with beekeepers and a 5-metre high inflatable bee, funding opinion polls, and much, much more.
It’s been a long haul to take on mighty mega-corporations like Bayer, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the collaboration of many scientists, specialists, sympathetic officials, beekeepers and environmental groups. According to Friends of the Earth: “Avaaz’s massive petition and creative campaigning helped push this over the edge.“

FLUORIDE IN PET FOOD:
Extract from:
Manataka American Indian Council™
Fluoride – dangerously high levels found in pet food
By Melissa Solis – Houston Pet Care Examiner
Pet food has a new level of danger hiding behind its labels. Environmental Working Group (EWG) just released a new study that showed high levels of fluoride in eight of ten pet foods tested. Consuming fluoride can lead to many serious health concerns.
Three studies show that boys who drink fluoridated tap water between the ages of 6 and 8 face a heightened risk of osteosarcoma, the rare but deadly form of bone cancer associated with fluoride (Bassin 2006; Cohn 1992; DHHS 1991). Scientists suspect that boys’ rapid growth may make them more susceptible to bone cancer (Bassin 2006)
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor in dogs; it is estimated to occur in over 8,000 dogs each year in the U.S., primarily in larger breeds (Chun 2003; Dernell 2001; Priester 1980; Withrow 1991). According to a recent expert review, the actual incidence is probably higher, since not all cases are confirmed and registered (Mueller 2007). Large dogs with fast growing bones are especially at risk. Only 5% of all osteosarcomas develop in dogs weighing less than 30 pounds and giant dogs generally develop osteosarcoma at a younger age compared to smaller-sized dogs and (Cooley 1997; Misdorp 1979).
A dog drinking adequate water would be exposed to 0.05-0.1 mg fluoride per kg of body weight daily, depending on the dog’s water consumption. A 10-pound puppy that eats about a cup of dog food a day would ingest approximately 0.25 mg fluoride/kg body weight/day based on average fluoride content in the 8 contaminated brands tested by EWG. At that rate, the puppy would consume 2.5 times more fluoride than EPA’s legal limit in drinking water.
When fluoride in drinking water is taken into consideration, a 10-pound puppy would be exposed to 3.5 times more fluoride than EPA allows in drinking water.
Large breed puppies may be exposed to even more fluoride.

→ Polytetrafluethylene ←
Pet birds can die an extremely painful
and agonizing death when exposed to
fumes from Teflon Cookware (contains F.)
polytetraflouethylene (PTFE).
“Like so many products developed for the sake of convenience without concern for human health, Teflon coated non-stick cookware when heated has proven to be a primary source of a dangerous toxic fluoride derivative, specifically perfluorinated chemicals”.
This non-stick coating is also marketed as Silverstone, Fluron, Supra, Excalibur, Greblon, Xylon, Duracote, and Resistal.
PTFE is odorless and invisible and bioaccumulates. When heated above 260ºC it is lethal to birds (pets) and will give humans flu like symptoms. A Teflon pan reached 721°F in just five minutes as measured by a commercially available infrared thermometer.
→ PFOA – A Proven Carcinogen ←
The toxicity doesn’t come from Teflon directly, but mainly from one of the many compounds that are released when the non-stick coating is heated to a high temperature. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), known as C8 (because it has 8 carbon atoms), is a proven carcinogen. Lab studies suggest that PFOA can cause cancer and birth defects in animals, and might pose a risk in humans. PFOA stays in the body for years and in the environment indefinitely.
→ PFOS. ←
Because of Teflon’s wide spread use over the last 50 years,
you might guess that, by now, PFOA and PFOS
should be inside just about every one of us.
and you would be correct !
PFOA & PFOS in 100% of all newborn’s blood!
In 2007, the shocking results of a study conducted at the John Hopkin’s Medical Center (Bethesda, MD) showed that levels of the toxic PFOA were found in 100% of a sample of almost 300 newborns, delivered at the hospital. Samples of umbilical chord blood were also shown to contain varying levels of PFOS. Asians (6 ng/ml) had the highest concentration, followed by Blacks (5.1 ng/ml) and Whites (4.2 ng/ml). Males babies had higher PFOS and PFOA than females. Obese and underweight mothers had slightly higher concentrations than women of normal weight. Other studies have found that some of the highest levels of PFOA and PFOS have been in children.
Two perfluorinated compounds– PFOA and PFOS– were found in virtually all of 299 newborn babies studied in Baltimore, according to scientists from Johns Hopkins University. The results indicate that exposure in the womb to these two chemicals is virtually ubiquitous.
Eight other PFCs were detected less frequently.
The saturation of PFOA in human blood has lots of scientists worried. The PFOA molecule does not degrade over time, so every one that is made and released in the environment will continue to be there for an indefinite time. The cumulative levels of PFOA will continue to increase in both the environment and in the human body.
DuPont studies show that the Teflon off-gases toxic particulates at 446° F.
At 680°F Teflon pans release at least six toxic gases, including two carcinogens,
two global pollutants, and MFA, a chemical lethal to humans at low doses.
At temperatures that DuPont scientists claim are reached on stovetop
drip pans (1000°F), non-stick coatings break down to a chemical
warfare agent known as PFIB, a chemical analog of the
WWII nerve gas phosgene…
Gold Coast Fluoridation commenced on
5 November 1968, and finished on 14 July 1979.
Brisbane Mayor Atkinson April 1985 proposed to fluoridate Brisbane city,
but changed her mind after she examined technical literature – Including
‘Fluoridation, 1979′ by Philip R.N. Sutton.
Dr. (Sir) Llewellyn (Lew) Edwards, Minister for Health,
1974-1978, lost his safe seat in Ipswich when he proposed to fluoridate all of Queensland.
The Lord Mayor’s Task Force On Fluoridation was established in January 1997 in response to debate in the media and the political arena about whether Brisbane’s water supply should be fluoridated. - “The majority of Taskforce members would not support the introduction of water fluoridation to Brisbane until the recommended Australian research has been carried out”.
The Queensland Government’s official Water Fluoridation Position Statement in 2003 admits that without the express consent of the community, water fluoridation is unethical mass medication and that a referendum ensures community consent.
— In 2004, amendments were made to the Fluoridation of Public Water Supplies Act 1963 (Qld) which removed the need for a council to hold a poll for the purpose of determining whether a majority would vote against the proposal. —
FORCED FLUORIDATION
Anna Bligh’s Harmful Legacy —
The Now Deposed And Discredited Bligh Government • ignored history, science, and the wishes of the people:
The Queensland Government committed $35 million to rolling out a capital program to ensure that more than
90 percent of Queenslanders would have access to (read forced to drink) fluoridated water by 2012.
On the 12 Feb. 2008 the Fluoride Bill was introduced to The Parliament of Queensland by Anna Bligh, Queensland’s Premier.
QUEENSLAND HEALTH – (DEPARTMENT) with help from the ADA, Qld., both with an agenda of secrecy, and with little knowledge of human health, democratic rights, or eco-systems and using distorted figures pushed the bill through the house.
The laws of nature cannot be reversed to suit commerce, pride, prejudice, pleasure, profit or politics. It matters little how many millions of dollars are spent bending the figures and promoting the absurdity of fluoridation, it will never change the facts.
TYPICAL OF PARTY POLITICS:
Thy sell off our assets,
borrowed from private overseas banks,
and poison our water...
IMPORTING TOXIC INDUSTRIAL WASTE
Originally the fluoridation infrastructure for Queensland was to
cost $35 million and now it has blown out to $113 million
and still counting, plus ongoing cost of chemicals,
(read imported industrial waste), and
operations payable by 73 ♣

Fluoridation advocates can no longer claim
ignorance, and are now morally if not legally accountable,
and may in the future be subject to

(The Queensland Health Department, funded The Australian Dental
Association Queensland Branch, $220,000 as a CONtribution to its
pro-fluoridation campaign. The request for this funding was directed
to the Hon. Stephen Robertson MP. The Minister for Health at the time

FLUORIDATION – HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
AS CAN BE SEEN ON THIS WEB SITE AND MANY OTHERS, ANIMALS,
PLANTS AND HUMANS ARE OVER-EXPOSED TO FLUORIDE IN ITS
MANY FORMS FROM NUMEROUS HIDDEN SOURCES.
ADDING FLUORIDE TO OUR DRINKING WATER
EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM.
A NEW RECENT HOPE !
On 29 November 2012 the Queensland Parliament
reversed the previous government’s mandate
requiring all public potable water supplies
serving more than 1000 people to
add fluoride to the water.
As a consequence of these changes local councils in
Queensland [now] have the CHOICE to add
fluoride to drinking water supplies.
The previous government, under Queensland Premier Anna Bligh, announced on 5 December 2007 that the fluoridation of most of Queensland’s water supplies will begin in 2008.[27] When it was enacted the Water Fluoridation Act 2008 required the addition of fluoride to any water supply supplying potable water to at least 1000 members of the public, unless an exemption is granted based on safety or naturally occurring levels that meet the required levels.[28] Prior to this legislation Queensland was the only Australian state without a formal statewide program for the addition of fluoride to drinking water.
The Water Fluoridation Regulation 2008 listed 134 drinking water supplies that were to be fluoridated by 31 December 2012.[29] Of the drinking water supplies listed in the Regulation, 32 comprised the SEQ Water Grid located in Southeast Queensland. The fluoridation of these supplies by the end of 2009 accounted for the largest increase in people currently receiving fluoridated water in Queensland (approximately 2.6 million people in 2006 or 68% of the Queensland population). Prior to the requirement to add fluoride in 2008 the towns of Biloela, Dalby, Gatton, Mareeba, Moranbah, and Townsville/Thuringowa had been adding fluoride to their drinking water – some since 1972, though some of these towns stopped adding fluoride prior to the Water Fluoridation Act.[30] Before the current legislation the addition of fluoride to water supplies was regulated by the Fluoridation of Water Supplies Act 1963.[31]
The fluoridation of drinking water supplies is regulated by QueenslandHealth,[32] with implementation supported by the former Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation. [33]
Several areas of Queensland, such as Julia Creek, Quilpie, Thargomindah and Adavale are known to have naturally occurring fluoride present in their drinking water, a characteristic that has been studied since the late 1920s.[34] [35]

FLUORIDATION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY
ALL DENTISTS, DOCTORS OR SCIENTISTS
POWERFUL CORPORATE INTERESTS ARE
INVOLVED IN THE PUSH FOR FLUORIDATION —
Fluoridation is an entrenched myth from the 1950’s. It is based on flawed research, but has become a mantra for most dental schools whose uncritical staff and students have been indoctrinated about its supposed “benefits” for over two generations. Medical schools have become aligned with this thinking. This is encouraged by the financial support that flows to universities, dental schools and to some practitioners from the sugar purveyors and industries having much to gain financially in various ways from the promotion of fluoridation. – Follow the money…
“…The establishment ‘experts’ generally receive better coverage in the media than ‘dissidents’ on most environmental, health and political issues. In the case of fluoridation the ‘experts’ have succeeded in convincing the vast majority of people in whole countries that opponents must be either cranks, extreme right-wingers or left extremists, or health ‘faddists’. This remarkable propaganda success has been achieved primarily by trading on the authority of the medical profession and by putting pressure on ‘dissident’ medical doctors, dentists and scientists to keep silent. The stereotyping of opponents has placed pressure on scientific and professional journals and the media not to publish material critical of fluoridation…”

Water Fluoridation Targets Black Americans
THE NATIONAL KIDNEY FOUNDATION (USA)
NO LONGER ENDORSES FLUORIDATION:
“The 1981 NKF position paper on fluoridation is outdated.
The paper is withdrawn and will no longer be circulated,
effective from the 10/06/07″ – NKF Board of Director’s meeting.
❝ The safety margin for exposure to fluoride by renal patients is unknown, measurements of fluoride levels are not routine, the onset of skeletal fluorosis is slow and insidious, clinical symptoms of this skeletal disorder are vague, progression of renal functional decline is multifactorial and physicians are unaware of side effects of fluoride on kidneys or bone. ❞
Fluoride May Damage Bones Of Kidney Patients
NEW YORK, June 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ —
The National Kidney Foundation withdrew its support of water fluoridation citing the 2006 National Research Council (NRC) report indicating that kidney patients are more susceptible to fluoride’s bone and teeth-damaging effects. The kidney-impaired retain more fluoride and risk skeletal fluorosis (an arthritic-type bone disease), fractures and severe enamel fluorosis, which may increase the risk of dental decay, reports the NRC. Fluoride is added to US water supplies ostensibly to reduce tooth decay. Fluoride is also in foods, beverages, drugs and dental products. The National Kidney Foundation’s (NKF) former fluoridation position statement also carried surprising cautions. The NKF advised monitoring children’s fluoride intake along with patients with chronic kidney impairment, those with excessive fluoride intake, and those with prolonged disease. But NKF now admits, “exposure from food and beverages is difficult to monitor, since FDA food labels do not quantify fluoride content.” The NKF’s April 15, 2008 statement goes further: “Individuals with CKD [Chronic Kidney Disease] should be notified of the potential risk of fluoride exposure.” “More than 20 million Americans have CKD, and most don’t even know it. More than 20 million others are at increased risk for developing CKD,” NKF reports. “There is consistent evidence that impairment of kidney function results in changes to the way in which fluoride is metabolized and eliminated from the body, resulting in an increased burden of fluoride,” concludes Kidney Health Australia in a paper NKF recommends reading. NKF’s fluoridation support was dropped when a lawyer, an academic dentist and public health professional, Daniel Stockin, alerted it to NRC’s findings. “An easy way to reduce the uncontrolled flow of fluoride into our bodies is to stop water fluoridation,” says attorney Paul Beeber, President, New York State Coalition Opposed to Fluoridation. “But it takes political will to reject fluoridation.” The American and Louisiana Dental Associations erroneously claim the National Kidney Foundation supports fluoridation. However, even the ADA reports that “decreased fluoride removal may occur among persons with severely impaired kidney function who may not be on kidney dialysis.” Chronic kidney disease is a growing health problem in the United States occurring more often in African-American populations, says the Centers for Disease Control.

FLUORIDATION IS A VIOLATION
OF MEDICAL ETHICS -
MEDICATION – WITH NO CHOICE -
Informed consent to a medical intervention is an ethical requirement -
Fluoridation promoters try to deny that water fluoridation is a form of mass medication, claiming that, as there is often a small amount of natural fluoride in some waters (i.e. calcium fluoride), “…it is just topping up the water with extra fluoride to achieve the ‘optimal’ level…”
Arsenic also occurs naturally in some waters !
This is a cunning evasion of the real issues involved, crooked thinking –
an unconscionable violation of medical ethics
and is against many human rights charters.
✹ FIRSTLY, the “extra fluoride” is in the form of sodium fluorosilicate, an unrefined artificial toxic waste containing fluoride, this does not occur in nature. See above.
✹ SECONDLY, there is no “optimal level” for fluoride because it is not a nutrient. – No disease has been linked to fluoride deficiency -
✹ THIRDLY, the addition of fluoride to water cannot be likened to the blanket use of chlorine in water treatment, which is accepted as a necessary precaution to make the water safe to drink, and it can be easily removed – unlike fluorides.
✹ FINALLY, a medication is any drug or remedy used to treat a specific medical condition. Here the fluoride is being used as a medication to treat / dose, people, not to purify the water, in this case targeting their teeth. Medical ethics demand that such substances be given to people with the right of refusal (i.e. informed consent), and if consent is obtained the medication is provided with individual dose and other specific recommendations to control its use. This does not occur with water fluoridation, which is an unregulated dose. It is a totally irresponsible, unethical dogma, clumsy and unscientific and a dangerous precedent in medicine, it is based on ignorance and or deceit and is in contempt of social justice…
Member States of UNESCO, this includes Australia, are required to
recognize the absolute prohibition of non-consensual
medication, and to implement it into national law…
