      It sure is, in concentrations 100-1,000x what is found in drinking water, and when applied topically, not swallowed.

        No, it was originally noticed as a result of naturally occurring in water. Not at those concentrations and it was swallowed.

              Americans are pretty much the only ones with Fluoridated water. It’s banned in all civilized countries.

                NZ chiming in here. Our right-wing dipshits copying the rolling US-fustercluck are proposing to stop flouridating our drinking water.

                I don’t have a career about this argument but thought your ‘civilised countries’ claim was a bit hyperbolic

                edit However, I love the thought you’ve put into your username and instance!

                You have no idea what you are talking about. I bet you also think travel to Antarctica is banned so no one discovers the ice wall around the flat earth.

            Regular filtering doesn’t work you need reverse osmosis or other specialized filters
