But the scientific rationale for putting it there may be outdated, and no longer as clear-cut as was once thought. Water fluoridation, which first began in 1945 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and expanded nationwide over the years, has always been controversial. Those opposed to the process have argued—and a growing number of studies have suggested—that the chemical may present a number of health risks, for example interfering with the endocrine system and increasing the risk of impaired brain function; two studies in the last few months, for example, have linked fluoridation to ADHD and underactive thyroid. Others argue against water fluoridation on ethical grounds, saying the process forces people to consume a substance they may not know is there—or that they’d rather avoid.

82 Percent of Patients Managed to Avoid Root Canals Using These Ancient Medicinal Herbs

This is an area where concrete information is hard to come by, but one little known study involving a carefully mixed blend of unique Tibetan herbs traditionally used to supercharge the patient’s circulation is raising eyebrows… Tens of thousands of people submit to their dentists’ advice each year and spend countless dollars on treatment for root canals each year, even though many holistic health researchers question the safety of such procedures. Root canals leave millions of harmful bacteria trapped under the tooth surface and have been linked to higher rates of heart disease, stroke, and many other serious issues, which is why I decided to go a different route than my dentist recommended.

My response at the time was not to dismiss it, but to put it on the back burner until it sorted itself out. And now, some seven years later, I think my original read on the technique was correct. It definitely works, but the original explanation as a detox technique that "pulls" toxins out through the mouth is probably not correct. What is oil pulling? The basic technique is simple. Top Cancer Researchers, Harvard, EPA Agree: Fluoride Causes Tumors, Lowers IQ.

Top Cancer Researchers, Harvard, EPA Agree: Fluoride Causes Tumors, Lowers IQ by DR MERCOLA A recently published Harvard University meta-analysis funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has concluded that children who live in areas with highly fluoridated water have “significantly lower” IQ scores than those who live in low fluoride areas. In a 32-page report that can be downloaded free of charge from Environmental Health Perspectives,1 the researchers said: “A recent report from the U.S. Dr. Robert Morse - 1 - Naturopathic Doctor - Playlist 1.
