It sure is, in concentrations 100-1,000x what is found in drinking water, and when applied topically, not swallowed.
No, it was originally noticed as a result of naturally occurring in water. Not at those concentrations and it was swallowed.
where are you applying topical flouride, and why are you eating it to begin with. also its not commercially available to normal people.
Drink more water
I drink plenty of filtered water, like most Americans, which removes the fluoride.
Ah yes, Americans, the epitome of health. One could never guess that you dont drink fluoride, amazing.
Americans are pretty much the only ones with Fluoridated water. It's banned in all civilized countries.
You have no idea what you are talking about. I bet you also think travel to Antarctica is banned so no one discovers the ice wall around the flat earth.
Which part are you having trouble with little kiddo? Any google search will support my facts.
One notes you didn't take the time or trouble to actually link any, though.
Is wikipedia Chinese MAGA conspiracy propganda? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation_by_country
'Banned in all civilised countries' ... 'Water fluoridation is considered very common in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Chile and Australia where over 50% of the population drinks fluoridated water.'
So, as the link you provided demonstrates, it is time to let go of the conspiracy bullshit you have been fed on YouTube.
That's less than 1/8th of the world population. Congrats, you're fucking illiterate.
Thanks for the unbiased link, it is appreciated.
Its not banned in Canada but I guess were not civilized compared to you hot shots down there with your super awesome federal government and big clubs of racist jingoist white boys and boy those Epstein files you guys handled those child rapists something fierce
NZ chiming in here. Our right-wing dipshits copying the rolling US-fustercluck are proposing to stop flouridating our drinking water.
I don't have a career about this argument but thought your 'civilised countries' claim was a bit hyperbolic
edit However, I love the thought you've put into your username and instance!
Regular filtering doesn't work you need reverse osmosis or other specialized filters
