Avoid all fluoride in toothpaste, oral rinses / products, and water. Fluoride is a poison and a significant contributor to lowered IQ and a wide range of chronic inflammatory diseases, stomach problems, metabolic disorders, neurological diseases, thyroid problems, and cancer. Did you know that a single tube of bubble-gum flavored Colgate-for-Kids toothpaste contains enough fluoride to kill a small child? It simply does not make sense to try to strengthen (or so they claim) one part of the body by poisoning the rest of the body especially when there are safe methods that work more effectively. Is just "a little poison" OK for you and your family?

Last month, researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai published a report identifying one dozen common chemicals (listed below) known to disrupt brain development and cause brain damage, neurological abnormalities, reduced IQ, and aggressiveness in children. The authors call for the implementation of urgent preventive strategies to quell the trend of brain damage.

Dirty Dozen
  1. Lead - (processed chocolate, gasoline, paint, toys, batteries, pipes, pottery, roofing materials, and cosmetics)
  2. Methylmercury - (organic mercury found in silver dental fillings, fish, vaccines, and air pollution)
  3. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) - (fish, especially farmed fish) 
  4. Arsenic - (a common contaminant in fluoride added to water supplies. Also found in wood preservatives and pesticides)
  5. Toluene - (paint thinner, fingernail polish, and leather tanning)
  6. Manganese - (drinking water and soy infant formula)
  7. Fluoride - (fluoridated tap water, dental products, some antibiotics and medicines, tea, processed foods, and drinks)
  8. Chlorpyrifos - (an organophosphate insecticide used in pest bait containers)
  9. Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) - (a pesticide banned in 1972 that still persists in the environment, including in the food chain)
  10. Tetrachloroethylene (PERC) - (dry-cleaning fabrics and metal degreasing operations)
  11. Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) - (flame-retardant chemicals found in upholstery, mattresses, clothing, television, and computer housings)
  12. Ethanol
