McKinney Texas City Council Debates Water Fluoridation – Councilman Ricchi Wants Fluoride in Water Stopped

Posted by on · Leave a Comment

Fluoride in Water McKinney Texas Councilman Ray Ricchi, and many local North Texas residents, want water fluoridation stopped. As readers might imagine, I’ve been paying very close attention to the increasing awareness about “fluoride” in water, and I was very happy to hear that the McKinney City Council is currently reviewing this very important issue.

Local news reporters attended the recent City Council meeting in McKinney, where water fluoridation was on the agenda, and public comment was allowed. Of course, several local dentists were in attendance and spoke about the purported “benefits” of water fluoridation, while many informed residents spoke about the dangers of “fluoride” in water. I use quotes around “fluoride” on purpose, as naturally occurring calcium fluoride is not the issue being discussed locally. But, some news reporters who have covered the fluoridation story, just don’t seem to be able to “get it” quite yet.

Chemicals in Food, Chemicals in Water, Chemicals in Our Body

Posted by on · 3 Comments

Toxic chemicals are all around us. Chemicals in food, water, air and in our bodies from products people eat, drink, breathe, slather and spray on their bodies via personal products and cosmetics, and used throughout our homes every day via cleaning products.

Blood, urine and hair samples provide ample evidence of how our health and bodies are negatively affected by more than 144,000 man-made chemicals added to the American food supply today. Commonly referred to as food additives, artificial flavors, flavor enhancers, dyes and preservatives, chemicals are wreaking havoc on the human body and our health.

Our bodies are not meant to be exposed to the degree of chemical poisons and food additives that we’re exposed to every single day. Children are suffering greatly from food additives and harmful chemicals they are exposed to before and after they’re born, as studies prove these harmful chemicals cross the placenta barrier and remain active in the fetus, and after birth.

Natural Health, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, and Health Benefits of Coconut Oil

Posted by on · Leave a Comment

What does consuming coconut oil have to do with overall good health, physical degeneration and dental health? Coconut oil? Really?! That question was my initial reaction to seeing several books about coconut oil, “oil pulling”, and the health benefits of consuming coconut oil on the shelves in some holistic dental offices recently.

Readers may recall my mentioning some of the many natural health and holistic nutrition books I’ve been reading over the last few months, discovered during the time I spent as a dental professional observing and watching the methods and dental protocols used in a variety of local holistic, fluoride free and mercury free dental offices. In one holistic dental office in particular, the book shelves in the doctor’s private office was filled with books on natural health and nutrition, books about coconut oil and its many health benefits, and the dental office reception/waiting room had many of those same books on display.

Fluoride is a Poison – How Does Fluoride Affect Health

Posted by on · 2 Comments

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, fluoride IS a toxic poison. Fluoride added to water supplies is NOT pharmaceutical grade fluoride. Not even close. The negative health affects of consuming fluoride via water fluoridation, fluoride toothpastes, mouthwashes, rinses, fluoride supplements, vitamins etc etc, are well known and proven to be a fact.

Just a few days ago I happened to notice the cover story of a dental magazine by the ADA called “ADA News”, mentioning how a town in Florida had recently voted 3-2 to keep their municipal water supply fluoridated. See it here. What do the two people who voted against continuing adding fluoride to the town’s water supply know about fluoride that the other three do not know or choose to ignore? What about all the people that live in that town? Do the citizens not have a right to choose if they want toxic chemicals forcibly added to their water supply against their consent, and perhaps even without their informed knowledge?

The Fluoride Controversy: The Facts & The Fiction – by Paul G. Rubin, DDS, MIAOMT

Posted by on · 2 Comments

There is a great deal of controversy about the effectiveness and the safety of fluoride, especially in the form of water fluoridation. The intent of this paper is to provide you with information you will need to make an informed decision about fluoride.

This information is based on valid scientific sources, and its basic premise of is that water fluoridation is ineffective at improving dental health, and does have the potential of adverse health effects (in other words, harm).

History of fluoridation

Water fluoridation began in the late 1940’s and 50’s after some preliminary studies were done that purportedly showed that a certain “optimal” level of fluoride (stated to be one part per million – 1ppm) in the drinking water led to decreased cavities in children. The testing protocols were quite flawed, and science gave way to politics.
