Groundbreaking new research has linked sodium fluoride to cardiovascular
disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. Researchers found that
fluoride consumption directly stimulates the hardening of your arteries, a
condition known as atherosclerosis that is highly correlatedwith the #1
killer. Sodium fluoride is currently added to the water supply of many
cities worldwide, despite extreme opposition from health professionals and
previous studieslinking it to decreased IQ and infertility.
In their research, scientists examined the relationship between fluoride
intake and the hardening (calcification) of the arteries. Studying more than
60 patients, the researchers found a significant correlation between
fluoride consumption and the calcification of your arteries. Published in
the January edition of the journal Nuclear Medicine Communications, the
research highlights the fact that mass fluoride exposure may be to blame for
the cardiovascular disease epidemic that takes more lives each year than
cancer. In 2008, cardiovascular killed 17 million people.
According to the authors of the study:
“The coronary fluoride uptake value in patients with cardiovascular events
was significantly higher than in patients without cardiovascular events.”
Amazingly, this is not the first report to come out on the dangers of water
fluoridation, however the United States government along with other nations
have allowed for the continued fluoridation of the public water supply
despite these key findings. In fact, the U.S. government has even gone on
record stating that a reduction in water fluoridation needs to occur
following the results of a massive study that found water fluoridation
affected cognitive function to the point of lowering the IQ of children. It
turns out that the announcement was little more than a public relations
stunt to curtail the massive wave of activism that followed the findings.
Government Admits Dangers Yet Continues to Pump Fluoride Into Your Water
Supply
Over 24 other studies have unanimously concluded that fluoride negatively
impacts cognitive function. In addition to these 24 studies focusing on
cognition, over 100 animal studies have linked fluoride to an increase in
male infertility, diabetes, and a whole host of other health problems. In
the latest study on cognition, it was found that that 28% of the children
who lived in an area where fluoride levels were low achieved the highest
test scores. This means that the children exposed to less fluoride scored
normal or advanced, while only 8% of fluoridated children did the same.
In fact, the safety precautions regarding sodium fluoride are quite telling
themselves:
Risk and Safety Phrases.
R25 – Toxic if swallowed.
R32 – Contact with acid liberates very toxic gas.
R36/38 – Irritating to skin and eyes.
S1/2 – Keep locked up and out of reach of children.
S22 – Do not breathe dust.
S36 – Wear suitable protective clothing.
S45 - In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice
immediately (show the label whenever possible.)
But what about cavity prevention?
Since 1962 the government has recommended fluoride levels between 0.7 and
1.2 milligrams per liter in the nations drinking water. Toted as an
excellent cavity blocker, fluoride has been praised for its alleged power to
prevent tooth decay and boost oral health. Research has now revealed that
fluoride, the very substance that is supposed to prevent tooth decay,
actually does nothing to prevent against cavities. In fact, vitamin D has
been found to be significantly more effective in cavity prevention without
the extreme side effects. Instead of damaging your body, vitamin D slashes
your risk of just about everything fluoride consumption causes.
According to the latest numbers, over 72 percent of Americans drink water
treated with fluoride. Is it any wonder that cardiovascular disease rates
are off the charts? Perhaps most concerning is the fact that fluoride does
not even prevent cavities, which is the very reason legislators have pushed
to keep it in the public water supply despite the links to deadly disease.
Even if fluoride was found to prevent cavities, would it be worth the
adverse effects?
Fluoride should be completely removed from the international water supply as
it is a threat to public health. Until the proper legislation is passed,
acquiring a high-quality water filter that removes fluoride is vital for the
health perseverance of you and your family.
