Sean Plunket interviewed Dr Robin Whyman 13 February 2025
At a parliamentary Select Committee Hearing in 2017, Kapiti resident Mike Woods, provided an excellent demonstration to explain the difference between taking fluoride as a prescribed medication and the uncontrolled dose of fluoride when drinking fluoridated water.
Mike points out that when someone takes fluoride via pharmaceutical tablets they know exactly how much they should take. They are told that if they are a woman who is pregnant they should not take any, and that parents should not give fluoride tablets to children under 3. Then various other doses for other age groups. But if they consume fluoride via the tap water, there is no warning for pregnant women or children, and everyone will be subject to whatever dose they happen to consume.
He also points out that people can buy fluoride tablets from a pharmacy but people cannot buy the type of fluoride that is added to the drinking water because it is classified as “hazardous”.
It is bizarre that our Director General of Health , Dr Diana Sarfati, is bullying and threatening our Councils to add these hazardous fluoridation chemicals to their communities’ water supplies or face huge fines, yet these same hazardous chemicals are not legally allowed to be released into the air, land or sea.
Mike finds this situation ‘quite incredible’ and ‘corrupt’. So do we.

Mike Woods highlights a key issue: fluoride in prescribed tablets is controlled, with clear dosage guidelines, while fluoridated water exposes everyone to uncontrolled amounts. It’s alarming that the same fluoride classified as hazardous is mandated in drinking water, yet restricted from the environment. Forcing councils to comply under threat of fines raises serious concerns about public health transparency and individual choice.
Mike Woods raises an important concern: while fluoride in prescribed tablets is carefully regulated with strict dosage guidelines, fluoridated water exposes entire populations to uncontrolled levels. It’s troubling that the same fluoride classified as hazardous is required in drinking water but restricted in the environment. The enforcement of compliance through fines raises significant questions about public health transparency and personal choice.
