The Fluoride Deception - Video
A few years ago, investigative reporter and former BBC producer Christopher Bryson wrote an excellent book (The Fluoride Deception) detailing the story behind the use of fluoride in drinking water. Here’s an excerpt from Publishers Weekly’s book description:
Bryson marshals an impressive amount of research to demonstrate fluoride’s harmfulness, the ties between leading fluoride researchers and the corporations who funded and benefited from their research, and what he says is the duplicity with which fluoridation was sold to the people. The result is a compelling challenge to the reigning dental orthodoxy, which should provoke renewed scientific scrutiny and public debate.
It’s an eye-opening read. Definitely worth the time.
Here’s an interesting video interview with the author discussing some of the book’s findings:
Also, be sure to check out the earlier post (ADA Issues Fluoride Alert for Infants & Children) that discusses the issue of fluorosis and provides links to more background on the potential hazards regarding excessive fluoride exposure.
As mentioned in that post, chronic exposure to elevated fluoride levels may be associated with greater risk of bone cancer, as well as detrimental health effects on the teeth, kidneys, brain, thyroid gland, pineal gland, and more.
