Toxic industrial waste fluoride is now being added to Waverley’s water supply, in a vain attempt to reduce tooth decay rates. The only thing it will lower is Waverley children’s IQ, according to the latest science. The latest research from Canada, funded by the US National Institutes of Health, confirms that bottle-fed babies living…
Read detailsThe San Francisco Federal Court has ordered the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to take a second look at a petition to require the EPA to complete a proper risk assessment of fluoride, which it has failed to do. This will mean the high quality studies published in the last few years must be included…
Read detailsIn the first 3 years of life children lose 4.4 IQ points for every 0.5 mg fluoride added to their drinking water if they are formula-fed rather than breast-fed. This is the finding of a particularly well-conducted study from Canada just published in the prestigious journal Environment International. Babies exclusively breast-fed for the first 6…
Read detailsIt is hard to believe that the NZ Dental Association is still calling for the Fluoridation (Health Amendment) Bill, a.k.a the Mandatory Fluoridation Bill, to be passed despite a bombshell study (Green et al) published in one of the world’s top medical journals this year, JAMA Pediatrics. The study found that fluoridated water was associated…

A recent review identifies the molecular mechanisms by which fluoride inhibits sodium iodide symporter expression and functionality, which in turn contributes to impaired iodide absorption, diminished iodide-concentrating ability, and iodine deficiency disorders[1]. Overall, studies suggest that fluoride exposure directly affects the bio-availability of iodine in humans. This is particularly important for New Zealanders, as NZ…
