Fluorinated Water

The Open Original Shared Link radio show often discusses health topics, and tonight will be delving into the health implications of fluoride in drinking water. It's a 4 hour program, starting at 10pm PST, 1am EST. You can find out what station carries the program in your area by clicking on the "Affiliates" link on the left side of the page.

It's a very informative show, and I'm sure tonight will be no exception. I will probably be recording it too.

Thanks, Rice Guy :) That sounds very interesting.

I'm glad this is coming to the attention of more people. In the city I grew up in, a large percentage of the kids I went to school with had brown teeth where the flouride in the water had actually discolored and eroded their teeth enamel. It was awful... :(

Yikes, 1 am???? I'm not gonna be up!

Is there anywhere we can see a transcript or have a podcast sent to iTunes??

They do offer a podcast, and downloads of past shows, but it's not free.

Well, I listed to the whole show, and it was very informative. One surprising thing, is that some research has linked fluoride to villous atrophy, hypothyroidism, and various neurological problems. It is also known that fluoride accumulates in bone, and actually weakens it, making it more susceptible to fracture. A single drop of the stuff is lethal to small children.

There was so much information, It would take pages to really do it justice. The experts being interviewed are part of the Open Original Shared Link. They apparently have a video on YouTube, though I've yet to check for that.

I recorded the entire thing, and will be splitting it into six 20 minute segments. If anyone wants an edited version with the highlights, just send me a PM.

That is a result of combining erythromyacin and fluoride during the tooth forming process. Knowledgeable prescribers should have cautioned parents to use bottled water until the prescription ran its course. Fluoride alone is not responsible, nor is the erythromyacin. It's the combination. I knew this growing up. Too bad the physicians where you grew up didn't share that tidbit with their patients. :(

Interesting, thanks for posting this. :)

I have also read that fluoride displaces iodine in our bodies tipping us toward iodine deficiency and iodine deficiency is one factor that contributes to fibroid tumors!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it. 
    • Zuma888
      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
