Guest guest Posted August 21, 2000 Report Share Posted August 21, 2000 Fluoride is not just bad for your thyroid, it's bad for your teeth too. It can cause your teeth to rot, flourdosis <sp>. It's a deadly industrial poison. Sabra wrote: > > Hi there, I remember there was quite a discussion on the list about > the > harmful effects of fluoride a while back.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 Sabra, If I were you I would NOT use flouride anything. My old homeopathic dr said it affects peoples pituatary gland too and makes people like sheep--follow anything. This was in the 50's and look at how people hero worship a med society that can give us poison and say " it's good for you " and nobody questions it. Scary. My father had perio disease in his teeth and he has been brushing with baking soda--he uses a water pic after each meal and his are stabile. Unfortunately his are medication induced. I assume you've quit coffee, pop, tea, and sugar. I saved my teeth at any cost with root canals--had 6 in one year and now have severe arthritis. I'd be wary, I know that isn't the only issue I have going, but it sure hasn't helped, so I had those all pulled. If you do some research on Fluoride, you will NEVER use it again. I did that for a high school presentation. Wow, scary poisonous stuff. L << Hi there, I remember there was quite a discussion on the list about the harmful effects of fluoride a while back. I really didn't pay much of attention at the time because I drink purified water and use no products with fluoride in them. However I went to the dentist yesterday and hated what they had to say. they tell me I have peridontal disease. That unless we get this under control and keep it there I could loose all my teeth from bone loss. I knew I had some low grade infection kind of thing going on that's why the visit but I didn't expect it to be so grave. The hygienist wrote me a prescription for a special anti microbial mouth wash with fluoride and a high potency fluoridated toothpaste which she says is the only way to get this under control. I am to not rinse after putting additional toothpaste on my teeth just let it soak in over night. I can't believe I am faced with choosing between my teeth and my thyroid! I have not filled the prescription yet. Just wanted to see what comments I might get back from yall. thanks Sabra >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2000 Report Share Posted August 23, 2000 Hello list, I want to thank you all for the suggestions for alternative treatments for the problems of flouride products. I will try them.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 www.fluoridealert.org found info on fluoride accumulation here - accumulates in pineal gland (moreso than bones,etc). study by Luke. also, a person/MD? named Gupta (in India) has a study on pubmed that says fluorosis is reversible, contrary to all other info found...he says calcium,D3,C,E and antioxidants do the trick...ummm, in 1994, I think. .....didn't really find what I was looking for, but my eyes are slightly crossed & bug-eyed from the attempt ultimately, looks like I will add it to the list of (possible) contributing factors & try to work around it - and mostly doing everything I could do anyway...it is all just plain crazy,imo. elizabeth > > > > Does anyone know of information on Flouride (whether in > > toothpaste,water,fertilizers,etc) and its impact/connection to > thyroid > > issues & what impact that might have on iodine metabolism? > > Can any connections be made to pituitary or adrenals? > > Etc...I found some interesting stuff - not sure I am understanding > it > > correctly & looking for more ..if anyone can point me in a direction? > > ..or even say, whoa-that is way off base...would be helpful. > > thanks > > elizabeth > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 My 19 month old apraxic son has never really had tap water. When he was on formula I used the ready to pour version, and if he ever drank water (which he rarely will) I'd use Poland Spring. We lived in NYC until he was 6 months old so the pediatrician never mentioned vitamins with fluoride. Now our NJ pediatrician advised us at his 18 month check up to start a multi with fluoride since NJ doesn't have fluoride in the water. Should I stop giving it to him? I never knew fluoride was an issue with toxicity. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Fluoride is a natural component of all water. What your pediatrician means is that there is no added fluoride or it is under the acceptable standard. Our problem was I used unregulated flouridated baby water to avoid tap water. That plus the powdered soy which hass too much fluoride may be a big problem to him. Then I gave him fluoridated vitamins. My point is, your kid is likely getting a lot less fluoride than mine was. You are safer than I was but you have to make your own decision. laurenrbaron wrote: >My 19 month old apraxic son has never really had tap water.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Some NJ water is fluoridated. It depends on your supplier. I'm not knowledgeable about this issue, but better-informed people have warned me to avoid additional fluoride. I'd rather have rotten teeth and intact health. FYI -- fluoride all through my childhood did nothing to save me from my bad genes. I've had six root canals, three oral surgeries, and a bunch of cavities anyway.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Good filters do remove flouride from water, so it is possible to consume flouride-free water. A nutritionist who specializes in childhood issues like autism told me that flouride is a neurotoxin. I think the medical maintream considers the amount in supplements or water to be safe though. You will have to weigh benefits to the teeth to possible health problems for at-risk kids. Personally, I stopped giving my 3 yr old flouridated water, but three times a week I brush his teeth with a TINY bit of flouridated toothpaste (which he swallows--that's why I only use a tiny bit) as his pediatrician recommended when his baby teeth came in. > > >My 19 month old apraxic son has never really had tap water.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Liz, Do you have any information or ideas where I can best find out about the 'fouride myth?' I'd like to find out more about this.
