The Hard to Swallow Truth Documentary

Story at-a-glance

Many U.S. and Canadian residents are unaware that fluoride is added to their drinking water supplies, and if they are aware they wrongly assume it is safe

There is an abundance of information available on the devastating health effects of fluoride, including damage to soft tissues (brain, kidneys, and endocrine system), as well as teeth (dental fluorosis) and bones (skeletal fluorosis)

Systemic fluoride has not been shown to reduce cavities or tooth decay to any significant degree

Fluoridating water is reckless, as you cannot control the dose ingested, or who receives it, and there’s no medical supervision. Water fluoridation clearly violates the medical ethical principle of informed consent

You’re Drinking a Toxic Industrial Waste Product

Even if you’re already aware that fluoride is in your drinking water, you might not realize that it is not the naturally-occurring variety. It’s not even pharmaceutical grade.

It's a toxic industrial waste product, which is also contaminated with lead, arsenic, radionucleotides, aluminum and other industrial contaminants, and even worse if your municipality is foolish enough to purchase it from China.

The story gets even more convoluted, as declassified files of the Manhattan Project and the Atomic Energy Commission show that the original motivation for promoting fluoride and water fluoridation in the United States was to protect the bomb- and aluminum- and other fluoride-polluting industries from liability. In the early days some of the sodium fluoride used to fluoridate water supplies in the U.S. came from Alcoa.

A couple of years later, they switched to the even more hazardous waste product hydrofluorosilicic acid from the phosphate fertilizer industry. But none of the studies on fluoride actually used the far more toxic and contaminated hydrofluorosilicic acid that is added to the water supply. Rather, they use pharmaceutical-grade fluoride, which while harmful, is not quite as bad as what's being used for water fluoridation. So, the health hazards are likely FAR worse than any study has so far discerned.

One early sign of over-exposure to fluoride is dental fluorosis, which typically begins as white specks on your teeth, which then progress to more unsightly yellow and brown mottling of the enamel. At the first signs of dental fluorosis, if you haven't done so already, you'll want to immediately eliminate as many sources of fluoride as possible. Shockingly, 41% of adolescents in the US currently have dental fluorosis from overexposure to fluoride. And remember nearly one-third of the US is NOT fluoridated.
