I don't think this is an urgent crisis or anything, but it seems recent research warrents thinking twice about fluoridation. |
You can get too much fluoride if you are getting it from multiple sources, like anything there is a upper limit on the dose. Thats a far cry from calling it harmful. I stopped getting Scientific American a few years ago when it started to go down hill (it used to be pretty good, I still pick one up time to time), so I can't see more than your teaser either, which says, well nothing.
The funny thing is the dentists, who are the ones dealing with this every day and understand its value, would have the most to gain if its removed from the water, yet only the nutballs are in the anti-fluoride camp.
