	Fluoride: Protected Pollutant or Panacea?
		Fluoridation proponents often assert that there is no legitimate scientific controversy over the benefits or safety of this measure.
		Fluoride ingestion in our children is clearly out of control given the sky-rocketing rise in dental fluorosis rates in fluoridated communities.

	Acute fluoride poisoning in a New Mexico elementary school
		Fluoride levels in both samples were extremely high - 375 ppm in the sample from building A and 93.5 ppm in the sample from building B. The fluoridator pump was turned off immediately after results of the tests were received.
		This is the third reported outbreak of acute fluoride poisoning caused by excess concentrations of fluoride in drinking water.
		The lack of fatalities suggests that the strange and unpleasant taste of water with a high fluoride concentration may function as a deterrent of water consumption, thereby reducing the quantity of fluoride ingested.

	Fluoride Research
		Fluoride is excreted in the urine and to some extent in milk, so that infants may be chronically poisoned by suckling from a chronically poisoned mother.
		Fluorides are used as an electrolyte in aluminum manufacture, a flux in smelting nickel, copper gold, and silver, as a catalyst for organic reactions, a wood preservative, fluoridation agent for drinking water, a bleaching agent for cane seats, in pesticides, rodenticides, and as a fermentation inhibitor.
		Fluoride is one of the most toxic inorganic chemicals in the Earth’s crust, but it is believed that at a concentration of 1ppm, or 1m g/mL in public water supplies, and at the concentrations used in dental preparations, it is both safe and beneficial to teeth.

	Fluorides and Fluoridation - Symptoms of Fluoride Poisoning (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The conventional belief that fluoride affects only bone and teeth has been negated in recent years, as the evidence on the involvement of the soft tissues/ organs/ systems of the body are convincing.
		Fluoride levels in the drinking water, serum and urine were estimated using a ION 85 ion-analyser.
		The total quantity of ingested fluoride is the single most important factor which determines the clinical course of the disease which is characterized by immobilization of joints of the axial skeleton and of the major joints of the extremities.

	Fluoride Toxicity Issues
		Since the 1950s, fluoridation proponents have steadfastly maintained that the safety factor of water fluoridation (1 ppm) in relation to the acutely lethal dose is 2,250- to 4,500-fold in adults (represents 5 to 10 grams NaF), and about 250- to 500-fold in a child.
		Acute fluoride poisoning is shown to be caused by exposure to lower doses of fluoride than commonly suggested.
		A case of fluoride poisoning was defined as an illness consisting of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or numbness or tingling of the face or extremities that began between May 21 and 23.

	Fluoridation / Fluoride -- Toxic Chemicals In Your Water
		Fluoride compounds put into water are often contaminated with lead, arsenic and radio nuclides since the fluoride compounds are toxic waste byproducts which largely come from pollution scrubbers of fertilizer plants.
		Fluoride was given at low levels during the early to mid 20th century as an effective way of supressing thyroid function and treating hyperthyroidism.

		Fluoride is found in many common household products, including toothpaste (eg, sodium monofluorophosphate), dietary supplements (eg, sodium fluoride), glass-etching or chrome-cleaning agents (eg, ammonium bifluoride), and insecticides and rodenticides (eg, sodium fluoride).
		Fluoride has direct cytotoxic effects and interferes with a number of enzyme systems; it disrupts oxidative phosphorylation, glycolysis, coagulation, and neurotransmission (by binding calcium).
		Fluoride inhibits acetylcholinesterase, which may be partly responsible for hypersalivation, vomiting, and diarrhea (cholinergic signs).

	Biological Effect of Fluorides
		Fluoride stimulates granule formation and oxygen consumption in white blood cells, but inhibits these processes when the white blood cell is challenged by a foreign agent in the blood.
		Fluoride depletes the energy reserves and the ability of white blood cells to properly destroy foreign agents by the process of phagocytosis.
		Fluoride ingestion from mouth rinses and dentifrices in children is extremely hazardous to biological development, life span and general health.

	Fluoride tablet poisoning - Jason Burton (2) dies
		5 - 10 g of fluoride are commonly considered to comprise the acute lethal dose; the child in question had received less than 50 mg, which suggests an enormous difference between the supposed and actual lethal dose, even allowing for the age of the victim.
		It is true that the mother had received fluoride during pregnancy and that the child had received 0.5 mg daily for 15 months before the incident occurred but one must wonder whether the chronic load could have been sufficient to lower the acute lethal dose so drastically.
		A spokesman for the Queensland Justice Department confirmed that Jason´s death was caused by fluoride poisoning.

	Fluoride tablet poisoning in Austria: Daniel Huala died
		Postmortem analyses showed elevated fluoride concentrations in the blood (1.5 ppm), kidney (3.7 ppm), and liver (4.35 ppm).
		In court, however, he was acquitted and the case dismissed because he had promptly consulted the Poison Control Centre of Vienna who had advised him that the ingestion of 50 fluoride tablets would not pose any danger to life and therefore there was no need for hospitalization.
		Korninger, supported Dr. Weichselbaumer´s defense and stated that, according to his perusal of the medical literature, the amount of fluoride in 50 tablets would not be lethal to a small child.

	FLUORIDE POISONING
		Fluoridation, as you know, is the addition of fluoride to the public water supply with the intention of aiding dental health of young children.
		In the case of fluoride, not fluoridating the public water supply will not cancel anyone's opportunity to use fluorides from many other sources if they so choose, but it will respect the right of the individual who wants to avoid fluoride.
		By the use of placebos, it vas definitely established that the fluoride and not the binder vas the causative agent.

	Fluoride in water - Lab rats die of fluoride poisoning
		During the first experiment, the researchers had noted and were perplexed by the alarmingly high death rate in the group of animals receiving aluminum and fluoride in their drinking water (80% of the animals in the low-dose group died before completion of the experiment).
		They also noted that the amounts of aluminum and fluoride fed to the animals was about the same as the amounts people are exposed to in artificially fluoridated public water supplies.
		Almost 60% of the United States is fluoridated, and the odds of an American developing some form of dementia by the age of 65 is estimated at 1 in every 10 people, and at the age of 85, the odds are 3 in every 10 people.
