Another Qld Council Halts The Scourge of Fluoride

A wise decision.

Note how this brief story mentions the money as if to make out that the council has wasted Federal funding for a water fluoridation project. When in fact it will save them expensive running costs of fluoridating water on top of everything else.

I believe that makes 10 Queensland Councils to either cease fluoridation or opt out before the poisoning of their constituents started.

    Please everyone send this to all the Councils everywhere who continue to chronically poison the population, pets and environment with these hazardous waste pollutants known as water fluoridation/fluoride and demand that they cease immediately and for all time.

    FLUORIDE CAUSES CANCER – Dr. Dean Burk – Former Chief of Cytochemistry at National Cancer Institute for 30 years   
    Fluoride and genetic damage and cancer   
    “In point of fact, fluoride causes more human cancer death, and causes it faster, than any other chemical.” Dr. Dean Burk, Chief Chemist Emeritus, U.S. National Cancer Institute
    
Fluoride and genetic damage 
When drinking water is artificially fluoridated, it is at the arbitrary concentration of 1 part per million. Dr. W. Klein and colleagues at Austria’s Siebersdorf Research Centre found in 1977 that even this small amount of fluoride inhibited DNA repair enzyme activity by 50 percent and caused genetic and chromosome damage(1). This was confirmed in 1982 at the University of Missouri(2). 
    Sperm cells were damaged by fluoride in a test carried out at Holland’s Leiden University leading to a “highly significant increase in mutation”(3). 
    Scientists at the West German Central Laboratory for Mutagenicity Testing(4) and at Columbia University(5) came up with similar findings showing that it also caused genetic damage to eggs in both insects and mammals. 

Fluoride and cancer 
Substances which cause mutations also tend to cause cancer. Scientists in several countries have demonstrated that this is the case with fluoride. In the USA, a comparison between the ten largest fluoridated cities and the ten largest non-fluoridated cities showed that, while cancer rates had been similar initially, after 20 years the fluoridated cities had 10 percent more cancer deaths than the non-fluoridated ones(6). These figures were checked and confirmed in 1976 by the U S National Cancer Institute.   continued: >

    Cancer Prevention Coalition Winning the war on cancer means preventing cancer. Yet cancer is a multi-billion dollar business. Isn’t preventing cancer bad for business? It is for the pharmaceutical and mammography businesses. These industries have intricate ties to U. S. policy makers, directing research funds to insure their continued profits in cancer diagnosis/treatment. It’s time for reform. Congressional leaders are calling for an investigation of the U. S. National Cancer Institute for its indifference to cancer prevention, other than smoking, and for denying the public of its Right-to-Know, and for failing to inform Congress and regulatory agencies.  You can add your voice on one or all fronts:  Stop cancer before it starts.

    Leading Cancer Researcher Opposes Water Fluoridation 
On 29 May 2003, Professor Epstein wrote:
    “Fluoridation of water reflects high receptivity to the fluoride industry, and indifference with significant public health penalties to the U.K. population. I should further note that some 100 leading national and international cancer prevention scientists, and representatives of consumer and environmental organizations have endorsed the Cancer Prevention Coalition’s opposition to fluoride in its The Stop Cancer Before It Starts Campaign Report. “I strongly support EDM 1258 opposing fluoridation of water. Fluoride used for this purpose comes from highly contaminated industrial grade fluorosilicic wastes; contaminants include heavy metals.
    Furthermore, there is significant experimental evidence that fluoride induces a dose-related incidence of bone cancer in rats. This is further supported by epidemiological studies incriminating fluoride and bone cancer in young men.  “The imposition of fluoridation on the U.K. public presents a significant public health hazard. It should further be stressed that simple filtration will not remove fluoride. Expensive reverse osmosis units are required for this purpose. This would impose undue economic burden among lower socioeconomic groups, as also would the alternative of purchasing bottled water.”It should further be noted that fluoride is currently added to the water supply of about 60% of the U.S. population. This is in sharp contrast to only 2% of the European population, which has much lower rates of dental caries.”    http://www.npwa.org.uk/index.php?view=article&catid=37:to-be-categorised&id=117:leading-cancer-researcher-opposes-water-fluoridation&option=com_content&Itemid=9

    When people think of fluoride being prescribed for medicinal purposes, they generally think of fluoride supplementation to reduce tooth decay. Fluoride, however, has also been prescribed as a drug to reduce the activity of the thyroid gland. Up through the 1950s, doctors in Europe and South America prescribed fluoride to reduce thyroid function in patients with over-active thyroids (hyperthyroidism). (Merck Index 1968). Doctors selected fluoride as a thyroid suppressant based on findings linking fluoride to goitre, and, as predicted, fluoride therapy did reduce thyroid activity in the treated patients. (McClaren 1969; Galletti 1958; May 1937). Moreover, according to clinical research, the fluoride dose capable of reducing thyroid function was notably low — just 2 to 5 mg per day over several months. (Galletti & Joyet 1958). This dose is well within the range (1.6 to 6.6 mg/day) of what individuals living in fluoridated communities are now estimated to receive on a regular basis. (DHHS 1991).

    The effects of fluoride on various aspects of endocrine function should be examined further, particularly with respect to a possible role in the development of several diseases or mental states in the United States. Major areas for investigation include the following:

    Thyroid disease (especially in light of decreasing iodine intake pineal function (including, but not limited to, melatonin production) development of glucose intolerance and diabetes.

    FLUORIDE: WORSE THAN WE THOUGHT  – Written by Andreas Schuld 
Tuesday, 13 April 2004
    The ever-increasing fluoride levels in food, water and air pose a great threat to human health and to the environment as evidenced by the endemic of fluorosis worldwide. It is of utmost urgency that public health officials cease promoting fluoride as beneficial to our health and address instead the issue of its toxicity.

    The City Commissioners turned to me, and asked my opinion.   Being somewhat naive and sans research, I agreed with the nurse,  and so together we naively, innocently, and stupidly added fluoride to the City of Fairview’s (Tennessee) water supply, and that addition continues to this date, despite the fact that the citizens of the City of Fairview, TN have never had an opportunity to know the pros and cons of fluoridation or to vote for or against the issue.
    We unknowingly doomed hundreds of Fairview citizens to Arthrosis, vertebral and hip fracture, osteosarcoma (cancer), infertility, birth defects, bone damage, damage to the immune system, fluorosis, fluoride neurotoxicity, and many other poorly diagnosed conditions, as fluoride affects every human system, often by inhibiting enzymes which are essential for the functioning of every human system.
    Besides the damaging of human tissue by 1 ppm of fluoride added to our public water systems, the health problem is also one of massive over-consumption of fluoride. We are being bombarded with fluoride from all our dental products and also many industrial sources.

    Thanks to Ailsa Boyden North Queensland for keeping track of this:-

    STOPPED FLUORIDATION
    2013

    The 13 councils which have voted no to fluoridation since the state relinquished its control of fluoridation to councils on November 29, 2012, are:  
    Tablelands Regional;
    Cairns Regional;
    Bundaberg Regional;
    North Burnett Regional;
    South Burnett Regional;
    Fraser Coast Regional;
    Cloncurry Shire;
    Burdekin Shire;
    Charters Towers Regional;
    Doomadgee Aboriginal Shire;
    Northern Peninsula Regional (Bamaga);
    Whitsunday Regional;
    Cassowary Coast Regional Council.

    We The People, have to really put pressure on those councils that continue to ignore the evidence of harm and abysmal failure of water fluoridation/pollution – the ADA and AMA and their interests have massive political power, clout and control which in itself is a disgrace. We must stop this chronic poisoning of the population, pets and environment urgently and for all time. Come of People fight for our long term health and our freedom rights – we are all responsible for our own health but they have made that impossible task for us with this chronic poisoning of us with hazardous waste pollutants.

    I should have clarified my apologies, Ailsa did not say the paragraph under the names of the councils ending fluoridation, that was me, Diane. Thank you my apologies.

    If water fluoridation were ended, it might take a generation for the effects to recede.   If it continues to expand, the “signal” identified in this study may get lost in the “noise” of endemic violence.

    In the documents attached to this Report 
    http://fluorideinformationaustralia.wordpress.com/violencecriminality/silicofluorides-water-fluoridation-chemicals/ you will find document headed ‘Yes, lead poisoning could really be a cause of violent crime’ – I had made additions which refer to the work of Professor Roger Masters – Silicofluorides (water fluoridation chemicals) and violent crime and enhanced lead uptake.

    Do not continue to ignore the link with Silicofluorides and violence and criminality.  
    In addition to all else, also of great concern to me is the fact that the effects of these hazardous waste pollutants fluorosilicic acid/silicofluorides on our aboriginal people appear to be even worse  – I have a lot of information in my report hereunder – also particularly see    http://fluorideinformationaustralia.wordpress.com/violencecriminality/silicofluorides-water-fluoridation-chemicals/
