Chemist: fluoride ‘one of the greatest public health threats of modern times’

(NaturalNews) Ingesting artificial fluoride chemicals does not
prevent tooth decay, but rather destroys your insides and leads to the
development of cancer and other illnesses. These are the disturbing
findings of an assessment recently compiled by award-winning chemist,
author, and founder of ThePeoplesChemist.com, Shane Ellison.

Frustrating more than 50 years of bad science that has claimed the
exact opposite, Ellison’s appraisal of fluoride’s negative effects on
the body shows once again why removing fluoride from public water
supplies is crucial to public health. And health freedom advocates must
step up to be the educational catalyst for bringing about this change
nationwide.

“Once ingested, fluoride compounds attack the structural integrity of
our insides,” says Ellison. “Collagen, a web-like network connecting
our skeletal system to muscles, is torn apart by fluoride. We feel it as
joint stiffness, ligament damage, and aching bones. This same mechanism
leads to browning of teeth, an outcome known as fluorosis.”

Ellison adds that laboratory studies dating back decades have shown
that fluoride spurs the mutation of mammalian DNA cells, which can
promote the growth of cancer cells. Various population studies, he says,
have shown that fluoride ingestion can increase a person’s risk of
developing bone cancer by as much as 700 percent.

And finally, fluoride has never been shown to actually prevent
cavities, which is the excuse most often used to continue lacing public
water supplies with this toxic poison. On the contrary, fluoride
ingestion actually promotes tooth decay, and even the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) admits that there is no verifiable, scientific proof that fluoride in any way prevents cavities.

So why does artificial water fluoridation continue to persist in many
towns and cities across America today? A combination of ignorance and
pride both appear to be factors, as the medical establishment largely
refuses to accept modern science showing that fluoride is unsafe because
it has been claiming for many decades that fluoride is safe.

John Garfield from The University Daily Kansan recently wrote
his own assessment of the dangers of fluoride, noting that the best
available science links fluoride consumption to thyroid disorders,
endocrine disruption, reproductive damage, skin problems, brittle bones,
immunodeficiency, premature puberty, and lowered IQ (http://www.kansan.com/news/2012/apr/26/water-fluoridation/).
