I think the idea that fluoride in water is necessary to make our teeth stronger has been debunked

So why is it there?

Why is it there? and why do they care so much that it stays there?

It would be one thing if it was just inertia (like daylight saving time), but researchers have been fired for studying this topic.

Do you have a preferred explanation?

Here's an alternate view article

Thanks. I'm familiar with those health claims.

What do you think is going on with fluoridation? Why is it done? Why is there such strong support for it?

reply

My personal opinion…

The general population thinks fluoride is good because they have been told it will keep their teeth from falling out

Might be that it makes the population more compliant, limits people in some way.

There’s also a ton of other junk in our water - anti depressants, etc.

Say more about that.

It was mentioned in the video.

A Harvard scientist was studying fluoridation and an interest group pressured his department, because the scientist wouldn't sign some creepy declaration of support for the official position on fluoridation.
