    I’m a poor person, and I’m certain fluoridated water has saved me thousands in dental bills over my lifetime. This is not some sinister corporate conspiracy to harm the poor.

    I’m getting seriously tired of debunking fluoride misinformation. If you’re not going to link to peer-reviewed science supporting your claims, you should stop posting.

      There’s no fluoridated water systems in many other countries and their dental cavity rates also got on par or better than fluoridated communities, so it’s not the fluoride in tap water but the overall standards of hygiene. Fluoride creates strong bonds and like lead, the body does not get rid of it easily, it makes bones brittle as it deplaces calcium

        Linking to a table of ‘reasons given’ in a paper covering the debate over fluoride as support for your ideas is the gish gallop-style abuse of science. You need to do better.

            That’s pretty funny coming from someone that had to reach that far to find a source that “supports” their point.
