Letter: Show us the science on fluoride benefits

Supporters of water fluoridation (Phillip Geary, Port News, 1 April) are fond of citing the opinion of generic “experts” and “professionals” as evidence of the goodness of fluoridation, much like the tobacco industry shamelessly cited “doctors” as supporting tobacco use. As fluoridation is forced on us without consent, it is very worrying that the supporters […]

Letter: New fluoridation research shows potential adverse health effects

Professor Phillip Geary (Port News, 1 April) is a staunchly avowed pro-fluoridationist, and I am his opposite in that sense. In his letter, Prof Geary attacks me personally with wrongful claims, which I take as suggesting he has no solid science supporting his position. I have now communicated with many fluoride supporters and with some, […]

Fluoride-Salt-Cooled High-Temperature Reactors

Overview The term “molten salt reactor” refers to nuclear reactors that use molten salts to transfer heat away from the reactor core. The heat can then be used either to produce electricity or for industrial processes. The use of molten salts to cool the reactor distinguishes molten salt reactors (MSRs) from the other reactor types […]

Water fluoridation from the frontline

Note from Fluoride Action Network: According to FAN director, Paul Connett, PhD, this article represents dangerous misinformation. The author makes no mention of the recent U.S. government-funded studies which show a link between exposure to fluoride during both fetal development and infancy and lowered IQ in children (Bashash, 2017; Green, 2019; and Till 2020). Thus […]

Podcast: The Dangers of Fluoride on the Brain and IQ with Dr. Mark Burhenne

See link at top for “Listen on Apple Podcasts” If we want to continue learning how to optimize health, we have to stay open to new information that might contradict previous research, even if it questions the status quo. Fluoride and dental health are great examples of this process. Fluoride gained support due to an […]

Simulation study on the migration of F- in soil around Chagan Lake, China

Abstract Chagan Lake is located in the high-fluorine area of western Jilin, with high fluoride content in surface water, soil, and groundwater around it. Due to its unique topography and hydrogeological conditions, Chagan Lake collects surrounding water and is closely connected with groundwater. The complex surrounding water not only affects the groundwater quality through Chagan […]

Spatial distribution and potential health risk of fluoride in drinking groundwater sources of Huaibei, Anhui Province

Abstract Fluoride enrichment in drinking groundwater at Huaibei leads to potential health risk to the residents. A total of 49 groundwater samples from groundwater sources were collected to evaluate the potential health risk of fluoride ingestion through drinking water for children and adults in Huaibei. Results shown that the average concentration of fluoride in centralized […]

Oil company begins major new use of ionic liquids

In a milestone for the industrialization of ionic liquids, Chevron has started up an alkylation unit at its Salt Lake City refinery that uses an ionic liquid catalyst instead of the traditional hydrofluoric or sulfuric acid. Alkylation reacts isobutane with olefins such as butene and propylene to create octane and other fuels. The Salt Lake […]

Orono and Veazie Town Councils to hold Referendum to end fluoridation on June 8th.

Information about Fluoride During the past year, the Orono and Veazie Town Councils have discussed and voted to hold a Municipal Referendum Election on Tuesday, June 8, 2021 for the purpose of allowing the voters to consider whether to cease fluoridating the public water supply. State Law vests all power regarding the decision to add […]

Nasty stuff. Letter by Annette Smith, exec. dir., Vermonters for a Clean Environment Inc.

Some readers may be tired of reading Jack Crowther’s information about fluoride, but Mr. Crowther is absolutely correct about the toxicity of the fluoride used in Rutland’s water supply. Another Rutland resident got the label from the product that is put into the Rutland water supply. It comes from a phosphate plant in Florida, and […]
