What do you suppose the Human Race should to do, to over come this flouride threat? How does the revolution begin?

Just because everyone only refers to the Pineal Gland as "the third eye", it's function is to produce the hormone melatonin which regulates sleep patterns and can protect against neurodegeneration as well as regulating other hormones.
The studies are out there relating to the effects of fluoride, several of which are in this thread. If people want to believe that fluoride really does protect against tooth decay, why does the National Institute for Dental Research say it doesn't? Are they quacks too?edit on 21-1-2012 by Kratos1220 because: (no reason given)

Another interesting tidbit on that matter is that originally not even the pro-flouridation people claimed that flouridated water has any positive effect on people over the ages of 8 years old. It was originally found that flouridated water could have a positive effect on teeth for these children below 8 years old in certain areas, but at the rates of flouridation required also inflicted dental flourosis on these children. Read the full story on this in the book "The Truth about Water Flouridation" by Charles Eliot Perkins.edit on 21-1-2012 by NeoVain because: (no reason given)

Two things:
Be careful about suggesting borax as a detoxifying agent (you typed "borox"). It can be very harmful if inhaled/ingested. Wiki says it's banned in the US but I know that to be untrue, as I buy it all the time for pest control at Home Depot If it is inhaled, it can cause severe respiratory irritation and if ingested, can cause diarrhea, nausea, vomiting. In large enough doses, it can cause renal failure.
Elemental boron, boron oxide, boric acid, borates, and many organoboron compounds are non-toxic to humans and animals (approximately similar to table salt). The LD50 (dose at which there is 50% mortality) for animals is about 6 g per kg of body weight. Substances with LD50 above 2 g are considered non-toxic. The minimum lethal dose for humans has not been established, but an intake of 4 g/day was reported without incidents, and medical dosages of 20 g of boric acid for neutron capture therapy caused no problems. Fish have survived for 30 min in a saturated boric acid solution and can survive longer in strong borax solutions.[119] Boric acid is more toxic to insects than to mammals, and is routinely used as an insecticide.
Hey guys, by the way, the original research work that supposedly claimed that sodium fluoride causes vascular calcification has been completely misconstrued.
So higher fluoride dye uptake was correlated with higher rates of vascular calcification...

Thought you might be interested in knowing that boron (in its pure form) does not come from "mother nature"; in fact it does not come from this planet Not sure why in your post there were references to both substances, because borax is a compound of boron. At any rate, I thought you might find that to be interesting
Most people choose the 10 mg supplements in little capsules, which works better.

Just so you know, I am agreeing with you too...I think the language of the study was misleading and the author of the article kind of took that and ran with it. Either that or he didn't understand the science. At any rate, a discussion was born lol, so here we are. It is very interesting to see how many other people have eschewed consumption of tap water...I did it because it was murdering my kidneys but before that, I never even thought about it. I don't know if that made me a sheep or not but I was definitely more aware of what I consumed after suffering like I did.

I have found that raisins, apples, pears, and certain nuts also contain boron. So i see no reason to buy those capsules, since i love nuts
Did you know this?
