| Fluoride Drinking Water |
| Fluoride drinking water is drinking water that has had fluoride added to it in an attempt to prevent cavities. Any purported benefits of fluoride drinking water are in scientific controversy. Studies on the benefits of fluoride drinking water from 50 years ago do not pass muster under today's standards for safety or effectiveness. Research from the same era also "proved" cigarettes don't cause cancer. Even the American Medical Association concedes that no studies were done to determine any side effects caused by fluoride drinking water. The fluoride used in drinking water for water fluoridation does not have Food and Drug Adminstration (FDA) approval and is considered by the FDA as an "unapproved drug". The proper use of any drug requires an understanding of how much is too much. Since fluoride is already in many foods and beverages, an estimated total intake of existing fluoride amounts is imperative. Research shows fluoride drinking water is unnecessary since we're already receiving 300% or more of the American Dental Association's recommended daily amount. The chemicals used to create fluoride drinking water are not high purity, pharmaceutical quality products. Rather they are byproducts of aluminum and fertilizer manufacturing.
