Chemical City: Chlorine & Fluoride

Chlorine is a potent chemical used in water treatment since the early 1900s to reduce germs in the water. Consuming it is a major factor in heart disease and cancer. Fluoride is a neurotoxin. Neither of these should be in the water, foods and medicines we consume, nor in the air we breathe.

It is not beneficial to teeth to drink fluoride. There may be a minor hardening result from topical application, but it is still poison, especially for children.

Fluoride harms the brain, lowering IQ by up to 10 points, according to a published Harvard University study. Additionally, fluoride reduces fertility. It is also a carcinogen, with higher cancer rates found in fluoridated cities.

It is important to purify water with special filtration or reverse osmosis to remove the chlorine, fluoride and other poisons. Filters for showering and bathing are also important.
