De-Friending Fluoride
Recently it has been reported that too much fluoride can lead to fluorosis, causing enamel weakening and therefore creating discoloration of the teeth. As some of us already know, there are worse side effects attached to this widely accepted pesticide than just splotchy teeth.
Way back when Dr. Chen created SunSmile® Herbal Toothpaste and Whitening Gel, he knew a thing or two about the ineffectiveness and dangers of fluoride. This is why SunSmile® Herbal Toothpaste and Herbal Whitening Gel have always been Fluoride-Free!
What is Fluoride?
Believe it or not, fluoride is a toxin derived from chemical byproducts of such things as aluminum, steel, cement, and fertilizer phosphates. In fact, fluoride is listed as an active ingredient in many rat poisons.
What are some of the dangers from too much Fluoridation?
Since fluoride is derivative from chemical run-off, it’s no surprise that it has been linked to various ailments. Here are just a few conditions that too much fluoride has been linked with:
• Cancer
• Damaged immune system
• Neurotoxicity
• Hyperthyroidism
• Increased risk of bone pathologies such as osteoporosis
What is the alternative to Fluoride?
Brushing with sodium bicarbonate (aka baking soda) is a popular alternative—if you can stand the salty taste! Of course, I recommend brushing with natural fluoride-free toothpastes such as SunSmile® Herbal Toothpaste.
If you'd like to learn more about fluoride, I recommend the following books: Fluoride the Aging Factor by Dr. John Yiamouyiannis, Ph.D and The Fluoride Deception by Christopher Bryson.
Do you have any information or tidbits about fluoride you’d like to share with us? We’d love to hear from you!
