When the teeth of fluorine-treated individuals are examined
chemically they are found to be composed of calcium
fluoride instead of calcium carbonate. It is commonly said
fluorine makes the tooth harder. This is utterly false. It
actually makes the tooth softer. It doesn't decay as
readily because calcium fluoride is less soluble to acids
than is calcium carbonate and decay starts in an acid
environment.
The investigators who first reported lesser decay rates in
who first reported lesser decay rates in towns having
naturally higher fluorine content in their waters failed to
check the water and soil for other mineral values. Lo and
behold, when they finally did so they found calcium,
magnesium and a host of elements were also present in
greater amounts. On top of that they found foods and
animals grown in these areas had higher mineral values and
were far healthier than in comparable communities. Somehow,
not one of those proposing the use of fluoride could see
that these higher mineral food values were dual companion
reasons for the immunity to dental caries that resulted.
It is stated that many areas of the country have one part
per million and even more of fluoride occurring naturally
in their water supplies. This is true, but the nature it
usually occurs in the form of calcium fluoride while sodium
fluoride is what is put into water supplies. Chemists say
there is no difference, between natural and chemically
added sodium fluoride. I think natural calcium fluoride or
other fluoride compounds do have synergistic effects which
makes it inherently different when ingested than the
chemical, sodium fluoride.
Any dentist who has taken care of cavities in people from
high fluoride areas(yes, they still get cavities) as I did
in Texas during the war know that they are much easier to
cut with the dental drill. The mottling disfigurement of
the teeth that occurs in one out of ten is something the
victims abhor and would give anything to correct
particularly if it occurs in a front tooth.
Fluoride-Enzyme Poisoner. This chemical, fluoride, is also
known to be an enzyme poison that affects a number of
important metabolism activities. One example is its effect
on the enzymes that help us to understand the role of
phosphorous in the utilization of carbohydrates. This
somewhat similar to what occurs in diabetics because of a
shortage of insulin. Other enzymes that can be inhibited by
the presence of fluorine are pancreatic lipase, cytochrome
oxidase, catalase, alkaline phosphatase, and others.
Enzymes are important to digestion and utilization of food
and many other body chemistry activities. Calcium and
magnesium utilization is inhibited by fluoride. It is not
easy to discuss how these enzymes affect food and many
other body chemistry activities. It is not easy to discuss
how these enzymes affect food and its digestion but these
factors are now being studied.
Fluorine taken during pregnancy is considered by some to be
responsible for 30% increase in mongolism. Healthy,
decay-free teeth are possible without fluorine. The sugar
and cereal industries are all for anything that will
encourage you to buy more of their pretty boxed trash.
Decay of teeth is primarily a result of dietary
indiscretions. Even if it were possible to reduce tooth
decay by artificial means one must still consider all the
other health problems that bad dietary habits produce.
I have found that those who use fluoridated waters or
fluorine dental office treatments usually think it is now
okay to eat all that junk food because their teeth won't
decay. That isn't how it works. The best reduction figures
are 40% less decay. That means instead of six cavities one
would have two or three. However, if sugar use is increased
the number of cavities could go up in proportion.
I did not use it in any way for my daughters when they were
growing up. In the beginning the junk foods. When we
learned to stop the sweets and substitute wholesome,
natural foods, the tooth decay stopped and it remained
absent without any fluorine treatment. Not only did tooth
decay stop,but enlarged ugly tonsils shrunk to normal size
and became healthy in color. In addition, colds and other
ailments were reduced considerably.
Dr. John Lee and the Martin County Medical Association
researched the amounts of fluoride in average dietaries and
found most people were getting more in their food than the
recommended one part per million. Therefore adding it to
water is resulting in more than what is considered optimal
to be ingested. Then, too, some people drink lots of water
while others do very little thus varying the amount
ingested. How physicians and dentists can recommend the
control of a disease by a method that doesn't control the
dosage baffles me no end.
