Flouride for babies

Just Say No

A friend called me from the grocery store because she knew I’d be incensed.

In the bottled water aisle she’d spotted a product called Nursery Water, with a picture of a beautiful baby covering nearly the entire label. It’s purified water with – yep, you guessed it – added fluoride!

My friend read from the label: “Specially formulated for infants and toddlers. Use it for drinking, diluting juice, mixing with cereals and preparing baby formula.”

She was right – I was incensed.

I had to wonder: If it said clearly on the label that fluoride is a waste by-product of aluminum manufacturing, do you think people would be lining up to give it to their infants?

As HSI Panelist Allan Spreen, M.D., has pointed out in previous e-Alerts, there’s no one on earth suffering from a fluoride deficiency.
