Blog: Fluoride: Facts & Fictions
I became interested in the "argument" over water fluoridation last November when our city put it on the ballot for vote. I did some research and was appalled by what I found! I want to share that knowledge, maybe people know... maybe they don't. I am shocked by how many people blindly believe what they are told by the major medical spokespeople or organizations (the ADA, AMA)... I hope to spark the curiosity of others to seek the truth.
I will first post a link to a most important effort being made right now. 11 unions of the EPA have called for a national moratorium on water fluoridation pending legitimate testing. You may not decide to sign it right away but I am hoping after reading some of the material that I will post in the future, you will decide to return here and sign this petition.
This isn't just one town or city, not even just one state - this is national.

- How do you detox fluoride from your body? by thebirdlady

Hi all,
How do you detox fluoride from your body?
Is it a metal?
I can't find any useful detox info.
Obviously, minimizing the amount consumed is preventative but I am really interested in
how to reduce the level I already have in my body.
Many thanks,
Suzanne

Fluoride is a cumulative poison, residing in your bones mostly. I think it does accumulate in other organs as well, it is not a metal, it is a chemical poison. It is unstable though and binds to calcium in the body.
With reduced intake and over the course of time, logic tells me that you would slowly rid yourself of the accumulation - although logic would also assume that increased intake of calcium would
1. Give the "free" fluoride something to bind to and be moved out of the body rather than lodging in bones and teeth.
2. replace calcium lost in bones and other organs by fluoride ingestion.
I'm no doctor but logically I would assume these things.
Also of note, is that when you look at fluoride supplements given by the dentist they will come with a warning on the label to avoid calcium intake within a period of time after ingesting the fluoride - this is because the fluoride will bind to the additional calcium and become ineffective subsequently passing out of the body. It seems the best preventative or combatant for fluoride ingestion would be a calcium supplement.
