I
was a child when fluoride, a by-produce from the manufacture of atomic
bombs, was first introduced to the American people.
Nobody told us where fluoride came from. All we knew is that it was a newly discovered chemical that would make our teeth extra hard and ward off cavities. When a free fluoride clinic was set up one summer in our school, all the kids in town lined up to have the bitter tasting stuff rubbed on their teeth.
We were pretty gullible in those days. The period immediately following World War II was a time of scientific advancement. After the inventions of nylon, rayon, plastic and other marvelous products that replaced fabrics, rubber and steel during the war years, people were lulled into the belief that those balding men in white laboratory jackets could solve all of the problems of the world. The belief was so strong that we blindly accepted whatever a "scientist" told us. Nobody dreamed that we might be victims of fraud.
My
father was part of the magic. He worked as a chemical engineer for a factory
that made a variety of products out of wheat and corn starch (including the
brain-killing excitotoxin monosodium glutamate). He provided well and I
consequently made regular visits to a dentist every summer. I knew well the
agony of the dentist drill. It was nothing like the advanced water-cooled
high-speed equipment used by modern dentists. Repairing a cavity doomed us
to what seemed like hours of white-knuckle torture under the glaring lights
of the dental chair, while a man with plastic rimmed glasses and bad breath
bored his way through teeth (and bone?). Once the drilling was done, the
dentist filled the hole he made with a hot metallic material that burned
when it went in, and left a bad taste in your mouth.
We had a mom-and-pop grocery store in our neighborhood where kids could buy penny candy and a package of gum for a nickel. I made a lot of visits to that candy store.
Even though my mother made sure that I brushed my teeth daily, somehow I don't remember linking the candy I was eating to all of the cavities. When fluoride was introduced, it seemed like a child's dream come true. I was disappointed, of course. I had just as many cavities in my teeth the following year.
When they started dumping fluoride in the local water supply, and adding it to the ingredients in our toothpaste, I thought that would surely solve my problem. It seemed reasonable to think that I didn't get a heavy enough dose of fluoride when I attended the free clinic. After all, if a little bit of fluoride was good for my teeth, it made sense that a lot more fluoride would be even better.
But alas, after years of drinking, scrubbing and consuming fluoride-laced products, we now learn that we've been scammed. This chemical is found to be totally ineffective in preventing tooth decay. Not only that, it seems to be directly linked to a variety of medical problems ranging from discolored teeth to bone disease and cancer.
FLUORIDE: POISON ON
TAP
(a shocking 1:32 hour film)
In short, fluoride is a poison!
This
is not news to the medical world. The Journal of the American Medical
Association and the New England Journal of Medicine have both reported
greater incidence of hip fractures in fluoridated areas. The National
Institute of Environmental and Health Services has linked fluoridation with
cancer.
A book by Dr. John Yiamouyiannis, titled "Fluoride, The Aging Factor," shows that the drug causes a premature aging process. He notes that in areas where fluoride is consumed in the drinking water, there are higher rates of bone disorders (skeletal fluorosis, osteoporosis and arthritic pain) and people suffer from brown decaying teeth.
"Fluoride is a poison!" Yiamouyiannis warns." The 1984 issue of Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products lists fluoride as more poisonous than lead and just slightly less poisonous than arsenic. It has been used as a pesticide for mice, rats and other small pests. A 10-pound infant could be killed by 1/100 of an ounce and a 100-pound adult could be killed by 1/10 of an ounce of fluoride. The Akron Regional Poison Center indicates that a 7-ounce tube of toothpaste contains 199 mg. of fluoride, more than enough to kill a 25-pound child."
Yiamouyiannis writes that the acceleration of the aging process by fluoride occurs at the bio-chemical level by causing enzyme inhibition, collagen breakdown, genetic damage and disruption of the immune system.
"Fluoride interacts with the bonds which maintain the normal shape of proteins," he continues. "With distorted protein, the immune system attacks it's own protein, the body's own tissue." The visual and physical effects from prolonged exposure to fluoride include nausea, bloody vomit, faintness, stomach cramps, tremors, constipation, aching bones, stiffness, skin rash, weight loss and brown or black discoloration of the teeth.
The horror in this story is that fluoride was known as a deadly poison from the start. But if this was true, why would the U. S. government promote the sale of it to its own people, and later people all over the world? Would you believe the answer to this question is money?
There is compelling evidence that the program of water fluoridation began as a massive effort to cover up bad publicity from one of the most toxic materials to emerge from the government's secret nuclear weapons program. The idea was that if fluoride could be presented to the country as beneficial, then no one could sue the government for being harmed by it.
An article by Dr. Jackie Alan Giuliani in "Healing Our World" noted that reporters Joel Griffiths and Chris Bryson discovered the truth about fluoride while researching hundreds of declassified documents about the Manhattan Project, America's secret atomic bomb development program.
They found that fluoride as a key chemical in atomic bomb production. Millions of tons were used during the Cold War period to manufacture high-grade uranium and plutonium.
"Fluoride was the top chemical hazard of the U.S. nuclear weapons program, not only for workers, but for those living in nearby communities as well," Giuliani wrote.
"The documents show that the first U.S. lawsuits levied against the atomic weapons program were over fluoride poisoning, not radiation damage. The documents reveal that the U.S. government secretly ordered atomic bomb scientists to create "evidence useful in litigation" against defense contractors who were being accused of injuring citizens with fluoride."
This secret work to head-off government
lawsuits lead to a multi-billion dollar industry that has been poisoning our
water supplies, our toothpaste, and our bodies ever since. Believe this or
not, fluoride tablets are even available for children.
To escape the harmful effects of fluoride, Yiamouyiannis suggests that you
seek non-fluoride toothpaste (but you may have to go to health stores to
find it), and drink bottled water. Even using tap water to cook may expose
you to fluoride.
Now that the truth about fluoride is out, why haven't towns and toothpaste
companies stopped dumping this terrible poison in our water and toothpaste
supplies? Don't expect that to happen. Remember, I said this is a
multi-billion dollar industry. Nobody shuts down a money machine like that
without a fight.
