The companies that make toothpaste with fluoride have brainwashed our entire society - and they have plenty of dentists who they have schmoozed by various means into their loyal “fluoride priesthood.”
The dental students are taught to believe wholeheartedly in this stuff, so how dare any person come against this wonder for society? Why, even our government is convinced that it is so good they suggest we drink it in our water. Science has proven that fluoride helps bond calcium to the tooth enamel in children during the years their formative or growing years. But even if it does that, who knows what the harm it is doing to the rest of the body through the thin membranes of our mouths? And why do they need it? Because our society eats way too much junk food - and then people don't clean it out of their mouths but let it sit and eat away all day.
Proctor and Gamble and other such companies will be making millions for a long time before anyone files suite. They may know the dangers that fluoride brings to us, but as long as they are making millions and people still believe…why spoil a good thing for their pocket books? Why not? There are a thousand other companies putting out stuff that hurt us too – so they can’t be any worse than the others. At least that might be the way that they think when they make compromises over our health and then make us believe we need to buy their wonderful product.
We all have to be responsible for our own health. It is sad to say, but we can not trust most main stream health and beauty or food products. We have to read the labels and make wise decisions, or they will feed us cheap or ineffective or poisons crap because the government says they can and so “it’s alright.” Teach your kids good oral hygiene including flossing – and now we know about the wonders of oil pulling! Yeah! And eat the right foods and use healthy stuff to clean the teeth. I have not used fluoride in probably 4 years now and have not had a cavity since. On the contrary my mouth is much healthier, gums tighter and nice and pink, not red and swollen how they get when I use toothpaste for any amount of time. The stuff I use I really love. I know people here use lots of different things they are really happy with too. Here is a link to the site where I buy the stuff I use, Ora-MD, and they have a link at the bottom where you can get a report on toothpaste from them too. I’d send you a copy of that but my email is down and I can’t get to it. http://www.oramd.com/#
Hope you find answers that satisfy your curiosity and that you learn enough to get away from using fluoride. There are lots of other choices to make out there that are good and will help you make a healthy change in this area. Making a change in what you use to clean your teeth and mouth is probably the easiest health improvement one can make…c
