چکیده
Water fluoridation is unnatural. It is particularly inappropriate to put fluoride into the public drinking water because fluoride is not an essential nutrient. Not one single process in the human body needs fluoride to function properly. Nature has given its own verdict on the lack of need for fluoride. The level in mothers’ milk is extremely low (0.004 ppm , NRC, 2006, p.40). That’s right fluoride is unnatural. It is reckless to bottle-feed babies at 250 times higher levels of fluoride than nature intended.
