The effects of fluoridation are numerous: children with darkened teeth and behavior disorders, brittle bones, neurological disorders, migraine headaches, clinical depression, dementia, and even Alzheimer's disease. All of these conditions have a close association with over use of fluoride in the public water supply.<br /><br />Aside from the fact that fluoridation is hazardous, Americans should be concerned about the use of the public water supply as a distribution method for this substance. Dentists and public health officials are basically forcing the public to medicate themselves with fluoride. Adding drugs and other substances should not be permitted. Many officials and doctors are pushing the consumption of statin drugs in the water supplies due to their blanket benefits. Putting a statin drip into the public water supply sounds far fetched, but that is exactly what happens with fluoride. <br /><br />Dentists promote the use of fluoride, as do their associations, as a necessary drug for the body, when in actuality the public would benefit to a larger degree from a promotion of magnesium, zinc, vitamin D, and the B vitamins, because they are the most common nutritional deficiencies in our bodies.<br /><br />Dentists tout fluoride as a nutritional deficiency because their organizations tell them to. Dentists are not qualified to address any areas outside the mouth. What the body ingests and processes are entirely under the jurisdiction of the doctor, and many doctors are not qualified to talk about nutrition either.<br /><br />Putting fluoride in the public water supply is basically an experiment on the largest and most dangerous scale, and is being conducted on the American population right now. One can see the increase of health problems with the use of fluoride. High doses of fluoride were used during World War II as a truth serum and for prison control. Maybe there is an alternative agenda.<br /><br />As a consumer, you can stop drinking the public water and only drink natural spring water. You can also avoid tooth pastes and mouth washes that have added fluoride. <br /><br />If you continue to drink tap water (which has other harmful chemicals like chlorine) you can attach a faucet mounted PUR water filter or use the Britta filtration system. Both use carbon filters to remove fluoride. This is a simple way to protect yourself, and your family from consuming too much fluoride. Distilled or reverse osmosis water is even better.<br /><br />Drinking water that has added chemicals is not only dangerous, it is irresponsible. The addition of fluoride to the drinking supply is based on bad science, misinformed medical authorities, and political power grabs, and has nothing to do with the well being of the public.</p><h3 class="popup">About the Author </h3><p>Gregg Hall is an author living in Navarre Florida.

Waiting until you get thirsty is a mistake, because thirst is a sign your energy is becoming depleted. No one lets their car's gas tank get completely empty before they fill it, yet many people allow this to happen to their bodies by waiting to drink water. Don't let your body stall on the side of the road! Drink water regularly to keep your body hydrated, and your energy levels at their peak.<br /><br />Most people don't consume enough water because they wait until they are thirsty. This is a philosophy perpetuated by the National Academy of Sciences, among others. This theory has been passed down for over 100 years, because during a time when research in dehydration and thirst was being studied by the French, American physiologist Walter Bradford Cannon dismissed this research, claiming through rather gruesome experiments on dogs, that thirst was only a the condition of having a dry mouth.<br /><br />By waiting until our mouths are dry, we are thirsty. This signal is used when the body fluids are depleted. Dehydration is a serious problem, especially for the elderly. After age 20, our bodies become less and less aware of the sensation of thirst, and become continuously dehydrated. By age 70, the elderly can become obviously thirst and totally dehydrated, and be unaware that this condition greatly affects their health. A scientific experiment was conducted where a group of elderly people were asked not to consume any water for a 24 hour period. The result? When water was made available, many people still did not feel thirsty. Water was left for them, and they would not consume the water. However when young people participated in the same experiment, they quickly corrected the thirst problem and immediately drank the water provided for them.<br /><br />The easy solution to the dehydration problem, is to drink water regularly throughout the day. The average person drinks about two quarts of water a day, but they need four quarts. Two quarts are consumed through the water content in food. The body needs four quarts of water to produce a healthy two quart flow of urine. This maintains good kidney function and health. If urine is colorless, you are properly hydrated. When it becomes yellow, or even orange, the body is dehydrated and a part of the body is suffering for it. Organs that become dehydrated cease to function properly. Waiting to drink water until you are thirsty can lead to health complications, even premature death.</p><h3 class="popup">About the Author </h3><p>Gregg Hall is an author living in Navarre Florida.
