STILL CARRYING AROUND THIS POTENT NEUROTOXIN NEXT TO YOUR BRAIN?

This eye-opening video from the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology is worth more than a thousand words when it comes to illustrating the very real danger of mercury fillings.

It contains a powerful visual demonstration of how mercury vapors are released into your oral cavity every time you chew, visit the dentist, or drink hot tea or coffee, for example.

Listen to the big gun against fluoridation

The governments of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA, Ireland, Britain and many other countries routinely fluoridate their citizens' water supplies.

Here, Dr. Paul Connett, Professor of Chemistry at St. Lawrence University in New York, gives a damning interview on the history of water fluoridation, the collusion of major industries to put certified toxic waste into your drinking water, and why government health authorities refuse to conduct scientific studies into the dangers of fluoridation.

Dr. Paul Connett, Professor of Chemistry at St. Lawrence University in New York, gives a damning interview on the history of water fluoridation, the collusion of major industries to put certified toxic waste into your drinking water, and why government health authorities refuse to conduct scientific studies into the dangers of fluoridation. After watching this video, you will never look at tap water the same way again. Connett describes how he initially thought people who opposed fluoridation were "a bunch of whackos," before conducting his own research which found that sodium fluoride was a toxic substance that contributed to a wide array of health defects. Heavy industry is barred from dumping this toxic waste into the sea by international law, but being able to sell it enables them to remove its hazardous characteristic and it becomes a product, explains Connett, polluting not only our water supply but also toothpaste and thousands of different foods.

Connett provides a detail run down of the many health problems caused by fluoride consumption, including dental fluorosis, which the Centers For Disease Control just recently announced was a problem for 41 per cent of children aged 12-15 in the United States, clearly indicating that children are being over-exposed to fluoride and that this is affecting other tissues and organs in the body, including bone disorders, a problem also wreaking havoc amongst adults in the United States as one in three now suffer from arthritis, which again is being caused by a build-up of toxic fluoride in the body. Connett also points to fluoride's connection with thyroid disorders.

There have now been over 100 studies involving animals which show that fluoride damages the brain, stresses Connett, which is a particular concern for newborn babies who are susceptible to fluoride build up because of their weak blood-brain barrier. Connett cites numerous studies which prove a link between moderate exposure to fluoride and lowered IQ.

The research is in. Neglecting this lifestyle habit can cost you up to a 70 per cent greater risk of developing heart disease along with a higher risk of diabetes, lung disease, and stroke. A study of more than 11,000 adults backs previous research linking gum disease with heart problems.

The bottom line

Clean your teeth for good health. How simple.

Be aware also that your mouth is the quickest way into your bloodstream. Check that your toothpaste and mouthwash don't contain potentially harmful chemicals, including fluoride, alcohol, glycerin, hydrogen peroxide, sodium laurel sulphate, propylene glycol, saccharin, and artificial colours and flavours.
