To the Forum:I am against fluoridation of our public water system. This
is a terrible mistake all who live in Hawai’i will bare. To think fluoride will
be the answer for our youth dental problems is totally inaccurate. I suggest
altering the diet and oral hygiene will do wonders for the prevention of dental
caries.
I am not affiliated with any organization and therefore did my own
research for myself on fluoride.
There is controversy because of the
seriousness of adding lethal poison to a drinking water source. Relying on
someone or a system to “accurately administer the poison” to each and everyone
of us for our own good is wrong.
The research available shows quite
clearly why the controversy continues to this day.
I am not providing you
with a “free” lunch as the proponents of fluoride offer. Remember the saying
“there is no such thing as a free lunch.” Believe it in this case.
I am
asking you to do your own research, to make up your own mind. The below article
and book mentioned is a good beginning to educate yourself on fluoride. Why the
controversy? Why is fluoride not 100 percent accepted by all states and
countries? Why the objections?
“Fluoride, the Aging Factor” by Dr. John
Yiamouyiannis available through Borders Books, etc. “Celebration or Shame?
Fifty Years of Fluoridation (1945-1995)” by Richard G. Foulkes, M.D. From
