Do you know why flouride is put in the water and toothpaste? 2/3

Merck gives the definition of silicofluoride as, " fluorosilicate is a

compound of silicon and some other base with fluorine, such as sodium

silicofluoride; fluorosilicates are sometimes used as insecticides, and are

very toxic when ingested. Called also silicofluoride. " (53)

 

While many are still assuming that the SiF compounds being added to drinking

water are high-grade pharmaceuticals, the CDC´s National Fluoridation

Engineer has publicly stated that all fluoride compounds currently used for

water fluorination are " byproducts of the phosphate fertilizer industry. "

(54)

 

Because of the toxic nature of this compound, the SiF being added to

drinking water is an industrial waste that would otherwise have to be

disposed of by the industry that created it, and it would have to be

disposed of according to the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HAZMAT).

Disposal of toxic substances under hazmat regulations, however, results in

an expense for the industries.

 

This costly disposal dilemma - and its clever marketing remedy - was

expertly summed up in a 1983 letter written by EPA´s Rebecca Hanmer,

(formerly the Deputy Assistant Administrator for Water), who stated that by

putting the SiF waste into drinking water rather than disposing of it, an

important financial savings is made for the industry. Miss Hanmer wrote that

this industrial plan is " ...an ideal solution to a long standing problem. By

recovering by-product fluosilicic acid (sic) from fertilizer manufacturing,

water and air pollution are minimized, and water authorities have a low-cost

source of fluoride... " (55)

 

Ongoing research by Dr. Roger Masters´ team revealed that the effect of SiF

in young, growing boys differs from its effects on adult males. In juvenile

males, ingested fluoride is not excreted from the body as efficiently as it

is excreted from the body of adult males. It is this finding that perhaps

explains why this substance might be creating an extreme reaction in boys.

In addition, after comparing blood lead levels of over 400,000 children in

communities using SiF-treated water, it was found that SiF water was also

significantly associated with increased levels of lead in the children

tested. This should be cause for alarm because the findings of other recent

studies show a distinct correlation between blood concentrations of lead and

unusual, aggressive behavior. (56)

 

Information published in 2003 detailed the findings of a controlled study

funded by the National Institutes of Health. Researchers found in this study

that elevated amounts of lead in the blood " may cause aggressive and even

violent behavior. " Dr. John D. Bogden, Professor of Preventive Medicine and

Community Health participated in this study at the New Jersey Medical

School. He stated, " The data of this study demonstrate that lead exposure

enhances predatory aggression in animals, and provide support for lead

exposure as a cause of aggressive behavior in humans. " Among other

researchers also participating in this study was Dr. Donald B. Louria,

Chairman Emeritus of the Department of Preventive Medicine and Community

Health. Dr. Louria stated, " The results support other recent investigations

that have found associations between lead in blood or bones and delinquent

and aggressive behavior in teenagers. " (57)

 

In seeking further documented evidence regarding aggressive behavior and its

association with SiF water, Dr. Masters contacted personnel in the EPA in

2000 and asked them if they had empirical, scientific data on the effects of

SiFs on health and behavior. Robert Thurnau, Chief, Water Supply and Water

Resources Division of the EPA responded. " . . . our answer is no. " (58)

 

In spite of the increasing evidence pointing directly to a potential

calamity stemming from massive fluoride poisoning, there remain outspoken

groups that continue to advocate the blanket dosing of entire communities

with still-untested, unapproved fluoridation. Among them is a group known as

" Quackwatch. "

 

Quackwatch is chaired by retired psychiatrist, Stephen Barrett, M.D. He and

the Quackwatch associates have gathered together for the purpose of acting

as both watchdog and instructor for the gullible, unlettered public. The

group has apparently done some substantial instructing, because it claims to

be one of the three most popular medical websites on the entire internet.

Dr. also serves as a Fellow of the " Committee for the Scientific

Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal. "

 

Quackwatch uses an FDA quotation to describe what, exactly, quackery or

health fraud is, and it also provides the public with guidelines to help us

more easily identify the " quacks " among us. According to Quackwatch, " The

FDA defines health fraud as ´the promotion, for profit, of a medical remedy

known to be false or unproven.´ "

 

In reading through the reports published on Quackwatch, one will read claims

that opponents to fluoridation have no supporting evidence to back their

opposition to fluoridation. In fact, the only suspicions regarding F that

seem to be embraced by Quackwatch are suspicions raised about individuals

who oppose or question fluoridation. In one report that appears on

Quackwatch, " Community Water Fluoridation in America: The Unprincipled

Opposition, " Michael Easley, DDS, another outspoken promoter of fluoride,

refers to fluoridation opponents as " health quacks, " and quotes from a 1983

paper which likens fluoride opponents to " parasites " who " steal undeserved

credibility just by sharing the stage with respected scientists, " all of

whom (we are apparently to believe) are pro-fluoridation. (59, 60)

 

Quackwatch warns that one of the tactics of an " anti " (an opponent to the

mass fluoridation of drinking water), is to use tactics based upon " those of

Hitler, " and to state that fluoride is the cause of an entire laundry list

of problems. Quackwatch is correct about the laundry list. This is not a

" tactic, " however. It is a mere statement of facts.

 

Those who have dared to ask a few questions in spite of the potential risk

of public humiliation by Quackwatch and other fluoridation promoters, have

discovered information that flatly contradicts the information being

generated by the promoters.

 

In a journal found in the National Library of Medicine, studies have shown

that in doses as low as 3 mg per day, fluoride has produced toxic effects on

male reproductive hormones. Despite what Americans are being told by

fluoridation promoters, the negative effects of F upon both body and mind

have not only been discovered, but they have also been duly reported, albeit

in areas and texts that most Americans - including professionals - do not

regularly access, to or read. (61, 62, 63, 64)

 

Perhaps the most amazing fact of all discovered by those daring to ask

questions, is the fact that the F compound being added into our drinking

water under a promised, medicinal claim, has not ever been approved by the

FDA.

 

Representative Glenn Donnelson of Utah summed this fact up during the

winter, 2003, National Conference of State Legislatures. When asked about

fluoride he stated, " A major concern is that the Food and Drug

Administration has never approved fluoride for safety or effectiveness . . .

When a product, substance or chemical is added to the public water supply

for the purposes of treating or preventing a disease, that chemical must

have an approved health claim by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. To

say that ´fluoridated water will decrease tooth decay´ is an illegal health

claim. " (65)

 

Amid the Quackwatch reports, is a report reprinted from the 2002 FDA

Consumer magazine focusing on the Surgeon General´s " silent epidemic " of

oral/dental problems, previously mentioned above. The article is named,

" Fighting Gum Disease: How to Keep Your Teeth. " The paper focuses on

" Americans´ bad oral health, " and on the high incidence of gum disease in

the US. A portion of this scientific paper, however, reads suspiciously like

a product promotion and endorsement. It is in that particular area of this

paper on " how to keep your teeth, " that the inevitable endorsement of a

fluoride product is made. (66)

 

A more realistic paper focusing on " Fighting Gum Disease: How to Keep Your

Teeth, " might have actually contained a warning about fluoride.

 

According to a patent application that can be located through the US Patent

and Trademark Office, the following statement was given as supporting

evidence by researchers applying for patent #636150, filed on April 22,

1996: " We have found that fluoride, in the concentration range in which it

is employed for the prevention of dental caries, stimulates the production

of prostaglandins and thereby exacerbates the inflammatory response in

gingivitis and periodontitis. " The claim for which these researchers were

seeking a patent was, " A method for preventing dental caries and at the same

time controlling periodontal bone loss precipitated by the fluoride... "

 

Could it possibly be that fluoride does not belong on the list of the " Ten

Great Public Health Achievements in the Twentieth Century, " as is claimed by

the CDC and seconded by popular fluoride promoters such as Quackwatch?

 

Is it possible that along with the " adjusted " reports that have been given

to the public from the USDA as well as from the EPA (as has recently been

charged by angered EPA scientists), that individuals in the CDC, the FDA and

those crying foul and quack in the private sector might be giving us -

albeit with great authoritarian bluster - more inaccurate information in

order to promote and market this product?

 

Most of the dental problems in the Surgeon General´s report are broken down

according to race, income and educational levels in the government´s

apparent attempt to find a reason behind the appalling increase in gum

disease. It is in the midst of this data that the following lament is made:

" . . . about 40 percent of the public does not receive the benefits of

community water fluoridation. " Because the mention of " fluoride-deficient "

communities is listed in this report, one might reasonably draw a conclusion

that fluoridated drinking water must be working wonders for those more

fortunate folks in the fluoridated counties. Certainly, the five states

mentioned on the Surgeon General´s list as having the worst toothlessness

problems - Kentucky, West Virginia, Arkansas, Louisiana and Maine - must be

five of the most embarrassingly " fluoride-deficient " states in the entire

United States. (67)

 

A brief review of a state-by-state CDC score card of " optimally fluoridated "

communities reveals just the opposite.

 

Predictably, and in keeping with research that reveals fluoride causes gum

disease, the two states with the worst edentulous problems in the country -

Kentucky and West Virginia - were 96% and 87% " optimally fluoridated " in

2000. In fact, Kentucky, which was mentioned earlier above as also having

twice the rate of cavities in toddlers as the national average, was actually

100% fluoridated in 1992.

 

Among the other top five states of now-toothless-Americans, Maine was 75%

fluoridated, Arkansas was about 60% fluoridated and over 53% of Louisiana´s

residents were being " optimally fluoridated " via hazmat waste in their

drinking water. (68)

 

Adding to the overall contradictory statistics is yet another report, this

one a 2001-02 " report card " issued by a fluoride-promoting group calling

itself " Oral Health America " (OHA). They gave the United States an oral

health grade of only " C, " a grade that was in part lowered because each

state not " optimally fluoridated " automatically received one " F " to be

figured into their grade. According to OHA´s data, there were only four

states that actually received a better grade than the national average of C.

Two of those four states that received the highest grades in America for

overall oral health were Utah and Hawaii. Both Utah and Hawaii received a B

minus.

 

Utah and Hawaii, however, are the two " hold-out " states in America. Both

states have been roundly rejecting water fluoridation for some time. (69)

 

Once again, the list of areas being " optimally fluoridated " or " fluoride

deficient " pertains only to fluoridation of drinking water. There is no

mention of the other sources of fluoride pollution in America. Among the

other sources are ongoing fluoride contamination of the air and environment

by Superfund sites, fluoride contamination in animal feeds, pesticides,

cigarette smoke, coal combustion, in fertilizers being incorporated into

soils, the fluoride that is contained in plastics and in nonstick cookware,

the fluoride contamination of human foods as well as canned/bottled juices,

soft drinks and other beverages, and the fluoride that is added to an

overwhelming number of pharmaceutical products, including antibiotics,

steroids, molecular imaging tracking agents, anesthetics, vitamins and

antidepressants.

 

As though even more fluoride were somehow needed by a nation that is clearly

already overdosed, the list also does not include one of the most highly

concentrated sources of fluoride that is purchased by most Americans and

used daily: Conventional toothpastes. Most toothpastes have a fluoride

content that is so potentially lethal, a poison warning must be displayed on

their labels. In what must be the most bizarre examples of conflicting and

confusing in formation, while " public health officials " in many states are

using words such as " enforcement " when it comes to keeping fluoride in

people´s drinking water, the notice on the toothpaste tubes warns

specifically against the ingestion of the fluoride product. The government´s

Medline encyclopedia gives the following prognosis following an ingested

toothpaste overdose: " For fluoridated toothpastes -- If the patient survives

for 48 hours, recovery is usually likely. " (70)

 

Amid the confusion, one might wonder why topical fluoride dental products

would even be necessary when the fluoridation of drinking water is now being

enforced in so many communities. The answer to this question can be found in

statements from the CDC and other fluoride promoters: Ingested fluoride only

affects teeth prior to tooth eruption. According to the CDC, after the tooth

has erupted from the gums in toddlers and children, ingested fluoride no

longer affects the tooth. (71, 72)

 

There are only preliminary estimates available regarding how much F is

absorbed through the skin and lungs even though over half of all Americans

now have no choice but to stand naked in their showers and be completely

contaminated by F water - and then pay for it in their utility bill.

Estimates suggest that dermal and pulmonary absorption of F are far more

efficient routes than ingestion by mouth, as was demonstrated over a half

century ago by the Nazis during their experimentation with lethal,

fluorinated nerve gases.

 

It is perhaps of interest to note that while Quackwatch includes the

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on its list of " Reliable Agencies and

Organizations, " several important pieces of literature pertaining to F and

published by EPA Headquarters Union of Scientists have either escaped the

Quackwatch notice or have simply been ignored.

 

It appears that a number of scientists in the EPA have also been able to

uncover existing information that documents the dangers of F. In fact, some

of the scientists of the EPA have been issuing warnings about the dangers of

fluoride in our drinking water for over ten years, but - again - reports

that do not further the sale of this product have been seriously " adjusted "

by overseers occupying jobs within the government. Only after being adjusted

are the reports then given to the unsuspecting public. In other cases, the

scientists´ warnings appear to be completely ignored by major news media, as

well as by some of the more popular medical sites that profess to keep

Americans informed.

 

One statement prepared by J. William Hirzy, Ph.D. of the EPA Headquarters

Union of scientists, summarizes the stand of approximately 1500 scientists

and professionals in Washington, D.C. " ... our opposition to drinking water

fluoridation has grown, based on the scientific literature documenting the

increasingly out-of-control exposures to fluoride, the lack of benefit to

dental health from ingestion of fluoride and the hazards to human health

from such ingestion. These hazards include acute toxic hazard, such as to

people with impaired kidney function, as well as chronic toxic hazards of

gene mutations, cancer, reproductive effects, neurotoxicity, bone pathology

and dental fluorosis. " In another statement issued before the Subcommittee

on Drinking Water in D.C., Dr. Hirzy urged an immediate moratorium on water

fluoridation, citing among other possible links, the growing psychological

problems children are now suffering. (73, 74)

 

While research on the destructive role that F is playing in the human body

continues to unfold, a much earlier clue regarding the toxic effects of

cellular message disruption was given years ago in an old book written by

Adelle Davis, Let´s Get Well. (Ms. Davis, who was suspicious of fluoride,

was posthumously inducted into the lengthy Quackwatch list of Quacks for

misinforming the public.)

 

Although she was not writing about fluoride when she mentioned the words

" xanthurenic acid " in that old book - she was writing about diabetes - both

xanthurenic acid and diabetes fit well into any study of fluoride and

America´s health problems.

 

Referencing research done in the 1950s, on page 94 Ms. Davis wrote: " When

too little vitamin B6 (pyridoxin) is obtained, an essential amino acid from

complete proteins, tryptophane, is not used normally; instead it is changed

into a substance known as xanthurenic acid. If animals are deficient in B6,

xanthurenic acid in the blood becomes so high that it damages the pancreas

within 48 hours and diabetes is produced. "

 

On the next page, she stated that magnesium plays an important partnership

role with B6 by decreasing the need for B6. A more recent study shows that a

magnesium deficiency impairs B6 status by inhibiting the uptake of B6 in the

tissues. On page 342, Adelle Davis stated that many foods grown in America

today using chemical fertilizers are deficient in magnesium content. (75)

 

These are important statements in that old book, as they clearly demonstrate

that the need for appropriate nutrition as well as the devastating effects

of an improper diet were well-known by researchers in the 1950s - long

before adjusters gave us our pyramid of dough. Information available through

the CDC also states that a poor diet - something that is now quite easy to

come-by in the United States - can lead to a depletion of B6. (76)

 

In order to better understand what, exactly, xanthurenic acid is, and how

important each small piece of the puzzle is, one must look at the symphonic

workings of the nerves, chemicals, proteins and hormones that are receiving

and transmitting messages in the brain and throughout the body each moment

of every day of our lives. It is the very ability of the receptors and

transmitters to give and receive their accurate messages that creates the

symphony that is the song of life.

 

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through a

proper, balanced diet. The tryptophan is then further dependent upon - and

influenced by - other nutrients and messages for its destined work in the

body.

 

If the tryptophan is not able to metabolize in the brain because of missing

nutrients or due to incorrect messaging, the tryptophan degrades into

xanthurenic acid, a toxin that causes cells to self-destruct in a cellular

suicidal action called " apoptosis. " All of the B complex vitamins are

essential for proper cellular messaging, but in studying the specific roles

of each of the B vitamins, a deficiency of vitamin B6 has, indeed, been

shown to lead to tryptophan degradation. What little B6 that is gained from

a poor diet can be further depleted by something else as easy to come by in

the US as a poor diet - stress. (77, 78, 79, 80)

 

On the other hand, if all goes well and all nutrients are present, instead

of metabolizing into xanthurenic acid the tryptophan will interact and then

form serotonin, which is a powerful neurotransmitter. Serotonin´s molecular

messaging role is so vast and important in the body, it is sometimes

referred to as the " serotonin system. " It is a key player in the regulation

of mood and behavior. It also directly affects the gastrointestinal tract,

and low levels are being found in the development of heart disease.

Serotonin is also thought to play a regulatory role in insulin production,

and a disruption of serotonin levels has also been found to worsen the

behavior in some autism cases. (81, 82, 83, 84, 85)

 

In a paper published in a peer-reviewed journal, the point is made that,

" Evidence is mounting that abnormalities of serotonin metabolism play an

important role in individuals with autism spectrum disorders. Whole-blood

serotonin often is elevated in children with autistic disorder and normal

intelligence. Also, in boys with autistic disorder, serotonin synthesis

typically is decreased in the frontal region and thalamus on one side of the

brain and increased in the dentate nucleus of the opposite cerebellum. " (86)

 

Once the tryptophan is transformed into serotonin, the serotonin acts as the

precursor to melatonin which is formed in the pineal gland. Melatonin is the

hormone that regulates daily cycles, and it induces sound sleep which is

necessary for our bodies to heal and repair themselves each night. It is

also an extremely important regulator of apoptosis and it also plays a role

in the regulation of insulin. Because of its role in the regulation of

apoptosis, when the melatonin is able to send and receive its messages

properly, its messages tell cancer cells to self-destruct, while keeping

other cells on task. It also helps to govern mood and behavior, and plays a

role in the triggering of puberty. (87, 88)

 

As science has leapt forward in various areas, researchers are now better

able to understand some of the smaller, lesser-known details of the great

symphony within us. They are now aware, for instance, of the critical role

played by something that was discovered not long ago by a gentleman of

science named Martin Rodbell. He discovered one of the most critical

messengers in our bodies - messengers that are now referred to as the

" G-proteins. "

 

According to " The Martin Rodbell Papers - Signal Transduction and the

Discovery of G-Proteins, 1969-1980, " which can be viewed in the National

Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, " ´Signal transduction´

describes how individual cells receive, process, and ultimately transmit

information derived from external ´signals,´ such as hormones, drugs, or

even light . . . The G-proteins proved to be the essential components of the

hormone signaling process. " This was a discovery that was so profound, it

resulted in a shared Nobel Prize for Dr. Rodbell and Alfred Gilman, M.D.,

PhD. (89)

 

But, Dr. Rodbell had also seen something else. At a press conference in 1994

he took a moment to express concern for something troubling him. He was

concerned about the increasing profit-oriented arenas into which the field

of science was moving. " The tenor is changed, " he stated, " the world ain´t

the same, everything is targeted, everything is bottom line, how to make a

buck. " He added that there is a crucial need to " capture knowledge for its

own sake and for humanity. " In one of his last public speaking engagements,

the man who represented pure science rather than industry - a scientist who

was also a poet and unafraid to speak of Amazing Grace - Dr. Rodbell said,

" We should be able to together bring about a better world, a world that we,

as humans, can be proud of. " (90, 91)

 

Eerily, strangely - very strangely - as though he had looked at the smallest

of the small details and in those details found divine consciousness, at his

Nobel banquet celebrating the discovery of the G-proteins, Martin Rodbell

the scientist and poet told us that when we think of G, to remember all that

it stands for - " lucky seven in the alphabet, the starting point for

everything surely profound, remember God... " (92)

 

Since the great, internal symphony is so dependent upon the abilities of the

G-proteins to send and receive their messages, it would appear reasonable to

assume that life, itself, depends upon the safe and unblocked passage of

these messengers.

 

Fluoride can now be suspected in a host of illnesses including GERD, gum

disease, bone problems, diabetes, thyroid malfunction and mental impairment.

As stated earlier, a significant number of the health and mental problems in

the US are more pronounced in boys. Because tryptophan, serotonin and the

melatonin formed in the pineal gland are specifically associated with

behavior (both aggressive and nonaggressive), with mood, sleep, appetite

control, mucosal function of the gastrointestinal tract, regulation of cells

and a host of other functions of the body, it appears that something is

disturbing the proper functioning of the messengers, thus resulting in

outward signs of disease and behavioral problems. (93, 94, 95)

 

Additionally, fluoride has now been found to accumulate in extremely high

concentrations within the pineal gland where melatonin is formed. This

observation was made during postmortem examinations by researcher Jennifer

Luke, DDS, PhD. A known neurotoxin, fluoride has also been shown to cause

nerve cell degeneration, resulting in an outright disruption of motor

coordination. It has also been shown to inhibit and interfere with the

production of insulin, interfere with thyroid function and to directly

affect thought process. (96, 97, 98, 99, 100)

 

The outward signs, however, are but the symptoms, the end results - the

effects. Having found the effect, one must look at the smallest of the small

details to find the cause. There in the small details, in the nucleus of the

symphony where the divine is meant to sing, something else is, instead,

lying: Fluoride has now also been identified as interfering with G-protein

messages. A messenger of utter falsehood, fluoride both activates and

inhibits cellular activity. (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106)

 

This means that fluoride, along with those promoting it, is sending out some

rather confusing messages. (107)

 

* * * * * * * * *

 

It was while studying the raging debate over whether " we " should or should

not pay the uranium mining industries to use our drinking water as a cheap

way to dispose of their fluoride wastes, that another fact appeared.

 

It appeared rather quietly and without fanfare, almost as background noise

that was unnoticeable against the din of debate on municipal fluoridation.

It might have been missed entirely if it weren´t for the fact that I was

focusing on the growing list of behavioral problems in children, and

wondering each step of the way if the children´s problems might possibly be

tied into an epidemic of epidemics caused by fluoride.

 

While adults were sometimes being given an opportunity to express opinions

prior to the fluoridation of their water supplies, another fluoridation

program was quietly begun. In the 1960s and 1970s, fluoridation was begun in

children´s schools which had their own water supplies. The fluoridation plan

for the schools´ drinking water, however, differed slightly from the

municipal fluoridation plans. The CDC guidelines suggested that school

children´s drinking water should be fluoridated at approximately 4.5 times

the amount suggested for municipal fluoridation. (108, 109)

 

This deliberate overdose, which translates into ranges reaching 6.5 mg per

liter of water, is not a dose that was based upon any child´s size, weight,

age or body mass. It is not a dose that was based upon any particular

child´s individual dental needs - nor was there even consideration of

whether the children´s teeth had already erupted and were therefore no

longer affected by ingested fluoride. The dose was certainly not based upon

any parent´s desire to have his or her children exposed to fluoride in

amounts that the parents would not want to receive. It is a dose that does

not even take into consideration the amount of fluoride the children might

already be exposed via topical dental products.

 

In fact, it is a dose that callously - and quite coldly - takes nothing

whatsoever into consideration other than the mean outdoor temperature. In

schools where the average daily temperature is 79.3 to 90.5 degrees

Fahrenheit, the suggested dose is 3.2 milligrams per liter, with the upper

range being 3.8 mg/L. But, heaven help the schools in colder areas where the

average air temperature is 50 to 53.7 degrees Fahrenheit. In those schools,

the suggested dose is 5.4 mg/L, with upper limits at 6.5 mg/L. (110)

 

With the dose of fluoride experimentation at such extreme levels, one would

think that at least caution and close monitoring would be in order.

 

Once again, such a thought is apparently considered unreasonable in the

minds of those promoting fluoride. In a report dated August 17, 2001, the

CDC states that while schools in thirteen states had initiated school water

fluoridation at some point during the course of this experiment, as of 2001,

" school water fluoridation has been phased out in several states; the

current extent of this practice is not known. " (111)

 

In addition to school fluoridation now being " not known, " in the same

National Conference of State Legislatures in which Representative Donnelson

registered his opposition to fluoridation, another 2001 study was reviewed.

The study examined the knowledge level of operators controlling both small

and large water plants. Specifically, this study focused on the knowledge

level of individuals responsible for adding the fluoride into the drinking

water. The two-year study found that only " approximately 64 percent of plant

operators knew the correct optimal fluoride concentration for their plant .

.. . " (112)

 

Medical experimentation is always undertaken for a purpose. The purpose in

most cases is to achieve or study end results. It is not unreasonable to

suspect that the massive medical experiment involving one of the most

powerful of the greenhouse gases - fluoride - might finally be revealing its

long-term, end results. With children being subjected to more than a full

measure of this experiment, it is not unreasonable to suspect that the

children might reach their breaking point before the larger, older, heavier

adult population.

 

It is not unreasonable to assume that children might now be showing signs

not only of dental fluorosis - which has been visible for years in the

United States - but also signs of systemic fluorosis manifesting in ways

that have nothing to do with their teeth.

 

With a manmade, toxic substance now effectively sending false messages

throughout the minds and bodies of most Americans, it is not unreasonable to

suggest that previously unheard-of behavioral and mood problems might be

directly related to that manmade substance which is sending out those false

messages. Along with the new, bizarre fascination with darkness that appears

to be growing in this country´s juveniles, there seems to be a new aloofness

and a growing lack of compassion.

 

In some children there appears to be a growing inability to think clearly

beyond the moment at hand, and an inability to avoid bizarre and impulsive

behavior. In some boys, there appears to be a growing inability to feel, and

therefore an inability to behave in a manner that considers the feelings of

others. School bullying, once a rare and punishable offense, is simply seen

now as " life in the real world, " as the principal of a notably violent

middle school in Tallahassee told me.
