US Fluoridation Trial

Fluoride Action Network and others sued the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), alleging that the EPA needed to carry out a risk assessment for fluoridation chemicals under the US Government’s Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA). The EPA has to ensure all chemicals do not pose an unreasonable risk.
After conducting a risk analysis, the court has ruled that the EPA now needs to take regulatory action to reduce or reverse the eliminate the risk.

Fluoride Trial Plaintiffs’ Closing Argument 2020

I’m fairly sensitive to chemicals and have always avoided diet products, as aspartame affects me noticeably. A few years ago, I decided to try fluoride-free toothpaste. Since then, my health has improved in several ways. I no longer drool at night or wake up with a sore throat. My skin is clearer, and I no longer experience sudden tooth pain.

I’ve generally lived in areas where the water was not fluoridated and relied on rain tank water from 2002 to 2013. These days, I use a water distiller and occasionally drink bottled water. While working in Thames recently, I started getting sore throats after drinking hot chocolate made with boiled tap water—something I hadn’t experienced in years.

My son, who is 100% unvaccinated and was raised on raw milk and tank water, has never had a cavity at age 22. We lived in Paeroa and Cambridge, where I was assured the water was fluoride-free.

I initially tried Red Seal toothpaste, then explored several Indian brands. I currently prefer Rozino and Xiaoks, which I order from Temu.
