Fluoride? Not so fast. There are many inconvenient tooths on that subject.

Maybe it's something in the water? Do you think?

There is a documentary called An Inconvenient Tooth about fluoride.  

I have known for a long time that fluoride is not our friend, and lots of people are waking up to this fact.  Thankfully, some towns have passed laws making it illegal to pollute the water supply with this dangerous drug.

Paul Connett, Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at St. Lawrence University is one of many scientists featured in the documentary.  He is now the executive director of the Fluoride Action Network, which is working to wake people up about what has happened here, and what will continue to happen if people don't get smart and take action.

Please, no comments from people who do no research about how fluoride is great.  The information out there is thorough, and proponents of fluoride in the drinking water don't have a leg to stand on.  

Americans suffer greatly from a wide spread corporate mass media induced trance, believing the most outrageous things.  This is a biggy.  Your children will one day know about this...and they will want to know if you ever even questioned fluoride's role in their development.

If you care about your children, your grandchildren, and yourselves, you should take the time to watch this important documentary.
