    Fluoride is safe topically and ineffective when introduced to our water supply. It is not some giant conspiracy, just a practice that is no longer necessary and unsafe because the industrial waste fluoride that is used is contaminated. Please save me the appeal to authority nonsense.

      Contaminated with what exactly?

      Edit: if it’s As and Pb, both (among many other things) are closely monitored in any city water supply (and also occur naturally) to ensure there is little to none.

      I can (and I’m sure you can as well) look up exactly the levels of contaminants allowed in your drinking water if it’s coming from a plant.

      If it’s another element(s) or compound(s), I’m quite interested to know what they may be.

      Also as per my last reply, are you a scientist of any kind?
