The Fluoride Truth You Were NEVER Supposed to See

Was the fluoridation of America’s water a corporate scam all along?

Health leaders like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. have been demonized for daring to question whether we should still be dumping fluoride into our water.

Sure, most of the world does NOT drink fluoridated water…

And fluoride has been shown to harm young brains… and even lower IQs.

But for decades we were assured it was necessary to stop cavities… and protect our kids’ and grandkids’ developing teeth.

Basically, the dental industry asked us to trust it.

But new facts are emerging on who was REALLY behind the push to fluoridate America’s water.

The research is stunning… you were never supposed to see it… and it could change forever how you look at the fluoride debate.

Now, we were always told that dentists – the people trying to protect our teeth — were the driving force behind water fluoridation.

But the truth may not be that simple…

What if water fluoridation was a PR move designed to cover the butts of people who were ruining our teeth instead?

The sugar industry.

Health researcher Christopher Neurath recently published a stunning exposé in the journal Environmental Health. And the title pretty much says it all:

The sugar industry’s efforts to manipulate research on fluoride effectiveness and toxicity: a ninety-year history.

Analyzing archived documents from the University of California, San Francisco, Neurath shows a nearly century-long effort by the sugar industry to push fluoride and attack any science that criticized it.

You see, the sugar industry was under intense pressure as research emerged proving sugar caused tooth decay. Rather than face calls for reduced sugar consumption, the industry tried to change the conversation – by offering a solution to protect teeth.

The end result, according to Neurath, was that “the sugar industry, sometimes in cooperation with dental interests, exaggerated fluoride’s effectiveness and downplayed safety concerns.”

In fact, some of the same strategies used by Big Sugar were eventually adopted by the tobacco industry, years later.

The research Neurath lays out is absolutely damning.

He shows grants paid to researchers to attack anyone who criticized sugar…

Lays out how sugar industry lobbyists influenced the dental industry on fluoride…

And even shows how Big Sugar sponsored a symposium in the 1940s to promote fluoridation to thousands of dentists and public health officials.

Fast-forward to today, and America is part of just a small group of countries worldwide that practices widespread fluoridation.

Most of the world won’t touch this stuff.

And this mass public health experiment is continuing, despite multiple studies showing risks to brain health – including lower IQ.

Trust me, defenders of water fluoridation don’t want you to see Neurath’s latest research – but every American is entitled to the facts. You can read it for yourself here.

And if you’re looking to opt out of water fluoridation, there’s a simple way to do it. An activated alumina filter or home reverse osmosis system both do an excellent job of pulling fluoride out of your water.

To water that’s clean – and safe,
