Fluoride back on the agenda:


Do you think your water, milk and other products should have fluoride added?

The National Health and Medical Research Council announced this week they will be looking into the latest evidence on the health effects of fluoridation.


Read the NHMRC release here:

They are also calling for the public to submit published studies.

EDIT: Link corrected.

The link does not work fOr me!
But fluoride does well so 'they' tell me, but then they said sweeteners were ok too!
hmmm, I heard that countries that use fluoride are more richer, smarter and live longer! Its true just look at those poor assed countries that can't afford it!!!
i need a link to tell me what to think, please help or I'll just make things up.

My first-born was raised for a couple of years with sans-flouridated water, and certainly has more dental issues than #2.

With calls for the public to submit studies, it ends up being drowned in the loonies with scientists being not interested. The same thing's happened in New Zealand.

They don't fluoridated the water in Japan and well, you will know what Asian teeth are like...

PS I still have no feelings of any kind... grew up with fluoridated water.

Lets keep the loonies out of this thread. Thats why it wasn't started in "Heavy Weather"

Two years to sort it out, well that should be enough time.
but really antidote evidence is not science and I thought it was already proved By comparing areas that had fluoride to ones without.
But I think its a waste in the water as most is used on our lawns and cars!
They should feed our kids in school so then whatever is needed for a healthy well behaved community is just put in.

How about they add some nitrate, phosphate, and carnauba wax. Would save me some time on weekends.

with the Water Corp injecting treated wastewater into the Gnangara Mound to help with the water supply, i was wondering if the treatment took out the fluoride or does it just get recycled?

I just hope the Water Corp. don't get too carried away pumping recycled dunny water back into Gnangara,

My local land sailing patch is the dried up Lake Gnangara - and I would very selfishly prefer to cruise around on dry mud -and not old dunny water.

I've drank gallons of coke
Eaten a ton of lollies
And got no fillings
Not sure of the side effects but fluoride seems to be working for me
