This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Toxicology Program (NTP) conducted a systematic review of the evidence of adverse neurodevelopmental and cognitive effects of fluoride exposure. NTP's conclusions are summarized in the monograph Systematic Review of Fluoride Exposure and Neurodevelopmental and Cognitive Health Effects. At the request of NTP, a committee convened by the National Academies reviewed their monograph to ensure the integrity of that report. It is important to note that the committee was tasked with reviewing the monograph and focused its efforts on evaluating whether evidence as presented in the monograph supported NTP's conclusions. Thus, it did not conduct its own independent evaluation of the evidence, and it did not conduct a data audit. However, it did review some key literature to enable its review of the monograph. Review of the Draft NTP Monograph contains findings and suggestions for improvements and some overarching findings concerning methods, assessment of animal and human evidence, and NTP's hazard conclusion.

Download or read book Fluoride in Drinking Water written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-01-22 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people associate fluoride with the practice of intentionally adding fluoride to public drinking water supplies for the prevention of tooth decay. However, fluoride can also enter public water systems from natural sources, including runoff from the weathering of fluoride-containing rocks and soils and leaching from soil into groundwater. Fluoride pollution from various industrial emissions can also contaminate water supplies. In a few areas of the United States fluoride concentrations in water are much higher than normal, mostly from natural sources. Fluoride is one of the drinking water contaminants regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) because it can occur at these toxic levels. In 1986, the EPA established a maximum allowable concentration for fluoride in drinking water of 4 milligrams per liter, a guideline designed to prevent the public from being exposed to harmful levels of fluoride. Fluoride in Drinking Water reviews research on various health effects from exposure to fluoride, including studies conducted in the last 10 years.

Book Fluoride  Drinking Ourselves to Death

Download or read book Fluoride Drinking Ourselves to Death written by Barry Groves and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2001-09-20 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluoride is more toxic than lead, yet it is routinely added to the drinking water of Ireland and Britain. In Fluoride: Drinking Ourselves to Death?, Barry Groves presents an array of convincing and persuasive arguments that dismantle the commonly held belief that the fluoridation of water is beneficial to our health. The fluoridation of water has been used for the prevention of tooth decay for over fifty years. During this time little research has been done to ascertain whether it works. The chemicals used are classified as toxic industrial waste, yet no study has ever been conducted into their safety for human consumption. At the same time, research has uncovered serious side effects including death, cancer, skeletal fluorosis, osteoporosis, dementia, lowered IQ, kidney damage and even increased dental decay. Fluoride is only slightly less toxic than arsenic and all the evidence points incontrovertibly to the harm caused by fluoride to human, plant and animal life. Yet it is routinely added to the drinking water of five million people in Britain and more than two and a half million people in Ireland. Strongly opposed throughout the world, water fluoridation is far less widely accepted than its proponents would have us believe. Only two percent of the people of Western Europe have their water fluoridated — almost all of them within Britain and Ireland. Despite this, dental organisations lobby governments to compel everyone to ingest fluoride, whether they want it or not and without regard to possible harm. The vast majority of dentists maintain that the fluoridation of water is not debatable. In this book, Barry Groves assembles evidence to refute every single argument made by the dental establishment in favour of fluoridation. This carefully researched and persuasively written book demonstrates that the case for fluoridation of water is based on poor science and dogmatic ignorance rather than on any scientifically proven benefit to public health. His conclusions are truly alarming for everyone concerned with their own health, that of their families and of society in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively account of fluoridation and its discontents Since its first implementation in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 1945, public drinking water fluoridation and its attendant conflicts, controversies, and conspiracy theories serve as an object lesson in American science, public health, and policymaking. In addition to the arguments on the issue still raging today, the tale of fluoridation and its discontents also resonates with such present concerns as genetically modified foods, global warming response, nuclear power, and environmental regulation. Offering the best current thinking on the issue, The Fluoride Wars presents a witty and detailed social history of the fluoridation debate in America, illuminating the intersection of science and politics in our recent past. This reader-friendly assessment explores the pro- and anti-fluoridation movements, key players, and important events. Full of amusing and vivid anecdotes and examples, this accessible recounting includes: A careful and non-condescending look at the hard science, popular science, pseudo-science, and junk science involved A look at fluoride issues including dosage, cost, financial and funding interests, fluorosis, and problems of risk-cost-benefit analysis The back-and-forth drama between pro- and anti-fluoridation factions, with all its claims, counterclaims, insults, acrimony, and lawsuits Case studies of various cities and their experiences with municipal water fluoridation initiatives Fluorophobia and popular conspiracy theories involving fluoride The colorful characters in the debate including activists, scientists, magicians, and politicians A richly and considerately told tale of American science and public life, The Fluoride Wars offers an engrossing history to both interested general readers and specialists in public health, dentistry, policymaking, and related fields.

Book The Dangers And Health Effects Of People Being Exposed To Fluoride In The Water  Why Fluoride Should Never Be Added To Water Supplies  And Why Fluoride Should Never Be Utilized As An Ingredient In Oral Care Products

Download or read book The Dangers And Health Effects Of People Being Exposed To Fluoride In The Water Why Fluoride Should Never Be Added To Water Supplies And Why Fluoride Should Never Be Utilized As An Ingredient In Oral Care Products written by Dr. Harrison Sachs and published by The Epic Books Of Dr. Harrison Sachs. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay sheds light on the dangers and health effects of people being exposed to fluoride in the water, demystifies why fluoride should never be added to water supplies, and reveals why fluoride should never be utilized as an ingredient in oral care products. Unbeknownst to most people, it is ineffably perilous for people to be exposed to fluoride in the water. The presence of fluoride in the water renders a water supply hazardous to drink and unsafe to utilize on your vessel. Fluoride has become a staple ingredient in public water supplies even though its usage in public water supplies is eminently inimical in all facets and provides absolutely no benefits to the people who utilize public water supplies. “Fluoride is an extremely dangerous substance and the active ingredient in most insecticides. If ingested, as little as 1/10 of an ounce can deprive a 100 pound adult of his life and 1/100 of an ounce can deprive a 10 pound infant of his life”. Fluoride is by far the utmost lethal ingredient in public water supplies that is profusely dumped into public water supplies. Fluoride is a life-depriving substance that is far more dangerous to be exposed to than people presume it is. The utmost grave peril of being exposed to fluoride in the water is that it can potentially culminate in depriving you of your life if you ingest it, thereby significantly increasing your mortality rate. People should never ingest fluoride. Another grave peril of being exposed to fluoride in the water is that fluoride consumption renders a person more prone to succumbing to bone fractures. “Studies of human populations have reported increased fracture rates in communities with 4 mg/L fluoride in the water, and animal studies have consistently found reductions in bone strength from fluoride exposures”. Ingesting water that is tainted with fluoride with an amount of 4 mg/L fluoride in the water cannot only “reduce the density of cortical bone”, but can also amplify the risk of succumbing to a hip fracture. It can be detrimental to have feeble bones that are highly prone to succumbing to bone fractures. Nothing salubrious can ever ensue from succumbing to a bone fracture. Another grave peril of being exposed to fluoride in the water is that fluoride consumption renders a person more vulnerable to succumbing to cancer. “Fluoride is a mutagen when present at sufficient concentrations and fluoride stimulates the proliferation of the bone-forming cells known as osteoblasts which may ‘increase the risk for some of the dividing cells to become malignant’ (NRC 2006)”. Ingested water that is tainted with fluoride renders a person at a higher probability of succumbing to osteosarcoma. Osteosarcoma is a “form of bone cancer”. Fluoride is a potent carcinogen that can contribute to the formation of malignant tumors in the vessel when it is ingested. Airborne fluoride has deadly toxicological properties and is hazardous to inhale. “In addition to osteosarcoma, a number of studies of fluoride-exposed workers have found associations between airborne fluoride exposure and both bladder cancer and lung cancer. Although fluoride’s association with these cancers has generally been attributed to poly aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), a non-fluoride airborne contaminant, a twenty-year study of a workplace with no PAH exposure found a similarly elevated rate of both bladder and lung cancer in the fluoride-exposed workers (Grandjean 2004)”. Airborne fluoride that permeates throughout an environment can can render an environment a carcinogenic environment. Airborne fluoride should never be inhaled. Another grave peril of being exposed to fluoride in the water is that fluoride consumption renders a person more susceptible to contracting hypothyroidism. The intake of fluoride adversely impacts a person’s thyroid functions and preempts it from being able to function optimally. “In February of 2015, British scientists reported that fluoridated water in Britain is associated with elevated rates of hypothyroidism”. In 2015, British scientists were able to discover “ ‘that higher levels of fluoride in drinking water provide a useful contribution for predicting prevalence of hypothyroidism’ (Peckham 2015)”. In 2015, British scientists also ascertained “ ‘that practices located in the West Midlands, a wholly fluoridated area, are nearly twice as likely to report high hypothyroidism prevalence in comparison to Greater Manchester, a non-fluoridated area’ (Peckham 2015)”.
