People of God, it is the same corporate and government interests that have sold fluoride to
the public as an advantageous health benefit. In truth fluoride is an industrial toxin that has
been linked to bone cancer, bone deformities, Alzheimer’s disease, increased bone fractures,
adverse thyroid function, dental fluorosis, osteoporosis, and decreased mental ability,
among other maladies. Fluoride accumulates in the body, concentrating mainly in the
bones.
The thinking of the aluminum manufacturers is that if they could change the public
perception of fluoride from that of a hazardous waste, to a substance endorsed by medical
and dental professionals as beneficial to human health, then they could defeat the
burgeoning legal attacks levied against them. Furthermore, if they could get people to ingest
fluoride regularly, then it would be all the more difficult to prove that the fluoride in a
person’s body was the result of a nearby aluminum plant, rather than from the water they
drink.
Christopher Bryson points out in his book that one of the chief medical doctors responsible
for getting fluoride approved by the government was Dr. Robert Kehoe who sponsored
fluoride research at the University of Cincinnati in the 1940s and 1950s.
Kehoe is better known today for his career-long defense of the safety of adding lead to
gasoline (now discredited). But he was also a leading figure reassuring citizens and
scientists of the safety of industrial fluoride and water fluoridation, while burying
information about the chemical’s toxic effects and privately sharing doubts with his
corporate sponsors about the safety of even tiny amounts of the chemical.

The same people who have brought you leaded gasoline, and the health benefits of smoking,
have assured the American public that fluoride is both safe and beneficial, and they should
not be worried about this industrial chemical being added to their drinking water.
Fluoride has never actually been proven to help prevent cavities, and evidence reveals that
if it has even a minute benefit, that is derived by the fluoride being applied topically to the
outside of the teeth while brushing. There is absolutely no evidence that fluoride ingested
