Kane Titchener interviewed on Dr Sam Bailey
Kane Titchener was interviewed by Dr Sam Bailey in November 2022. Kane has been actively working to stop fluoridation in New Zealand for around 10 years. He convinced the Auckland Council to reduce fluoride levels from 0.85ppm to 0.7ppm and not to introduce fluoridation to parts of the city (such as Onehunga) that are not…
Anti-science, fanaticism and fantasy behind fluoridation directive
The decision to direct Councils to fluoridate water supplies appears to have been made without Dr Bloomfield considering any of the matters he was legally required to consider before giving a direction, an Official Information Act reply reveals. The Government was losing the scientific argument so it passed the power to a political bureaucrat who would…
Wellington Water Saves Children’s IQs – Albeit Unwittingly
The revelation that Wellington water was not being fluoridated at times over the past six years provides unexpected health benefits. Fluoridation was stopped completely at Te Marua’s Twin Lakes in February 2021 and at the Gear Island station in December last year. This has meant many residents in the Wellington region have been receiving non-fluoridated…
Tooth decay decreases after fluoridation ceases
Tooth decay has decreased in New Plymouth since fluoridation ceased in late 2011, and at the much same rate as still-fluoridated Stratford and Hawera. This is according to the official data obtained from the (former) Taranaki DHB. This is consistent with other communities that have ceased fluoridation, such as Timaru, Ashburton and Tauranga. For 5-year…
Government dictates to communities again
The Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, has advised all local councils with unfluoridated communities that he intends issuing an instruction to fluoridate their water. The decision on fluoridation has always rested with local communities, upon the advice of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Fluoridation in 1957. However, the last National Government and this Labour…
Revelation shows fluoridation should end
The revelation that fluoridation levels in Wellington and Upper Hutt water supplies has been below, and often well below, “recommended” levels, yet tooth decay rates have been unaffected, confirms that water fluoridation does not reduce tooth decay. Parents can be reassured that the drop in fluoridation levels has not caused their child to have tooth…
Chief Science Advisor Appears to Deliberately Mislead on Fluoride Science
The Prime Minister’s Chief Science Advisor has released a document purporting to show the latest science on fluoridation. However, among the many mistakes and reliance on out-of-date science, the most glaring issue is that she refers to two of the best studies ever carried out on fluoride and IQ (Mexico and Canada) as “having high…
Chief Science Advisor Releases Pure Propaganda
The Prime Minister’s Chief Science Advisor (PMCSA) has just published a new page on fluoridation which is pure propaganda, ignoring or misrepresenting the current scientific knowledge. We have no doubt that the sole purpose is to provide a basis for the back door mandatory fluoridation Bill currently before Parliament, and the profluoridation decision expected from the Director-General of…
Fluoridation decision a disgrace
Sent as Press Release on the 22nd March 2021 It is disgraceful! The Government’s latest move on the Fluoridation Bill to now shift decision making solely to the Director General of Health proves its intention of mandatory fluoridation. This will make New Zealand one of only three countries in the world with mandatory fluoridation. The…
