Government Calls for Lower Fluoride Levels & Admits It Harms Children

Vatic Note: Think about this for a moment..... China, Europe and other countries refused to put fluoride in their water and that was for years. So how come we never caught on to that and information about the harm it does has been common knowledge for as long. So why did they continue to put that in our water? Something to think about.   Oh, remember, Hitler knew enough about fluoride to use it in the concentration  camps to keep the inmates sedated and apathetic. 

Government Calls for Lower Fluoride Levels & Admits It Harms Children

The United States government finally acknowledged the harmful effects that fluoride has on the body, and recommends that water fluoridation levels be decreased nationwide.

Water fluoridation has been in effect in the United States for over 65 years. The U.S. government began putting fluoride in the public water supply claiming that it would prevent tooth decay. Over the years, thanks to various studies and public officials speaking out, the negative effects of fluoride have finally come to light.

The United States government, prior to today, denied the link between increased fluoride levels and disease. The game changer, however, was the major study out of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. The study, published in Environmental Health Perspectives, found that increased fluoride consumption led to decreased IQ in children.

Since 1962 the government has recommended fluoride levels between 0.7 and 1.2 milligrams per liter in the nations drinking water. Ever since then, fluoride has been praised for it’s alleged power to prevent tooth decay. Research, however, has shifted the national outlook on fluoride. Even in calling for the reduction of fluoride in the water, the government does not discuss the major findings. Instead, it focuses on a smaller symptom of fluoride consumption – damage to children’s teeth.

The very substance that is supposed to lead to greater tooth health is leading to teeth damage. According to the government, fluoride in drinking water should be reduced because of the damage it is causing to childrens’ teeth, not the link between fluoride and decreased IQ in children.

Over 72 percent of Americans drink water treated with fluoride. A large majority of the nation has been consuming fluoride, now found to be a poison, for years. Even if fluoride was beneficial to teeth, the damage it does to the body would logically be a priority over increase tooth health.

While the government reducing fluoride in the water is a step in the right direction, fluoride should be completely abolished from the water supply, as New York officials have been calling for.

I have found nothing but empyt rabbit holes connected to this article from Shatterlimits.com

Meaning, where is the source, any source, that states the US government is acknowledging fluoride as harmful and recommending it be decreased nation wide...
A NYdaily news article indicates a NY city politician wants to submit a proposal, but that is all I found.
I wish this article were true but I have not found anything that indicates it as so.

Thank you.

Thank you, anonymous, unfortunately with our computer problems its impossible for me to say right now what is what until I get back up again and am able to support the article. Hang in there and we will somehow do so one way or the other. Thanks for giving us that insight.

Here is an excellent video on the subject. Will get back to you when we get our computers fixed and stable.

Thank you for the follow up comment.
I checked out the video, though I didn't learn anything new.
I think the world knows Fluoride is seriously dangerous.
I did once again see the NY council member introducing a bill this month.
That is what I found with my searching for government “acknowledging”.
Though I have to say, once again scanning the list of health issues,
a long list of which anyone one could be affected by Fluoride, from cancer
to arthritis, it promoted me to write my city council again. It is not that
I haven’t tried. The last time I was told it is “mandated”. Well, there is a new
Council member so I wrote again (already!) providing the video URL and
http://fluoridealert.org/

Thanks!
