| 21st July 2009 | European Court Ruling Ends
|
Fluoridated water must be treated as a medicine, and cannot be used to prepare foods! That is the decision of the European Court of Justice, in a landmark case dealing with the classification and regulation of 'functional drinks' in member states of the European Community. (HLH Warenvertriebs and Orthica (Joined Cases C-211/03, C-299/03, C-316/03 and C-318/03) 9 June2005)... Implications for international trade in food products... But the ruling also has an equally profound implication for export trade in processed foods and drinks. The Court stated that even if a functional food product (or a food containing it) is legally marketed as a food in one member state, it cannot be exported to any other member state unless it has a medicinal licence. So any company making a consumable product using fluoridated water in its preparation or as an ingredient cannot now export that product to any other state in the EC, even if their product is permitted in their home state. The economic implications are enormous. Not only does the ruling ban the use of fluoridated water for all retail catering and wholesale food processing in the UK and Ireland, it also prohibits such trade from these states to other member states of the EC. But it goes much further than even this, because if British and Irish processed foods from fluoridated areas cannot be exported to the EC, this prohibition must also apply to the importing of such products into EC member states from any other country that practices water fluoridation. The decision effectively bans all processed food products from countries such as the USA, Australia and New Zealand, unless they can be positively proven to have been prepared using only water that was not fluoridated.

The Alliance for Natural Health (ANH) calls today for an urgent independent inquiry into the scientific methods used by Europe’s highest authority on food safety, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). This call comes on the back of the ANH’s highly critical analysis, published on its website today, of EFSA’s decision to approve for food supplement use the chemical sodium monofluorophosphate, the same chemical commonly added to toothpaste and mouth washes to prevent or treat tooth decay

However, promoters like the Chief Health Officer Dr. Carnie are meeting fierce resistance to their ignorant and arrogant machinations on this matter especially from citizens in Warnaambool, Ballarat and Geelong. That resistance has been beautifully captured in two communications.
Poisoned Horses
On Sunday, Dr. David Kennedy posted a video on YouTube titled "Poisoned Horses." Horses are much larger than canaries but in the case of fluoride toxicity they are an ideal canary for what fluoride might do to humans. Why? Because horses drink a huge amount of water each day.
This video documents what happened to Cathy and Wayne Justices' quarter horses when they drank fluoridated water. This is a very distressing story. The symptoms experienced by the horses included dental fluorosis; acute lameness; abnormalities of the hooves; changes in bone structure; dermatological reactions; colic and even changes in behavior (one animal changed from a fine temperament to aggressive behavior symptoms which were reversed on removal of the fluoridated water.)
All of these symptoms and conditions have been confirmed by Dr. Lennart Krook from Cornell veterinary school. Many of the symptoms have been experienced by people who claim to be sensitive to fluoride. It is a shocking indictment of the governments which continue to push this reckless policy that they have never attempted to follow up on these numerous reports from citizens with carefully controlled scientific studies.

Fluoridosis
Dangers of Fluoride Pt.1
Lynne McTaggart laid out the dangers of fluoride use which have been generally ignored by health professionals and communities at large. "It's a rat poison," McTaggart said of fluoride which is added to the water supply of two thirds of America's cities. It's also in toothpaste, and in many other products one wouldn't suspect, such as canned beverages, baby food, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides, she said.
McTaggart said numerous studies show that fluoride does not prevent tooth decay, and in some cases actually contributes to poor dental health. Additionally, some studies have shown that children in communities that have higher levels of fluoride in their water have up to 10% lower IQs, than in locations with lower levels of the chemical. This kind of "mass medication" doesn't take into account "bio-individuality," and is particularly harsh on children, she indicated.
By banding with other anti-fluoride groups, of which there is a growing number, people can make their voices heard to oppose local fluoridation efforts, McTaggart suggested. On an individual level, she advised using a "reverse osmosis" filtration system on your water faucet, as well as choosing toothpastes that don't contain fluoride.
Lynne McTaggart, an investigative journalist, and editor of the newsletter "What Doctors Don't Tell You," began work on "The Field" four years ago as a personal quest. Her research took her to many areas around the globe, meeting with top frontier scientists in Russia, Germany, France, England, South American, Central America and the USA. During these meetings, she saw what these scientists were working on and it seemed to overthrow the current laws of biology, chemistry and physics. Their theories and experiments also compounded into a new science, a new view of the world.
For several years she immersed herself in quantum physics and pored through hundreds of scientific papers to decoding what was often impenetrable work. In many cases she had to pester the scientists to explain aspects of physics in order to check facts and interpretations. Lynne concludes that her work paints a picture of an interconnected universe and a new scientific theory which makes sense of 'supernatural 'phenomena.
Poisoned Babies
Metropolitan Water District public hearing where Dr Kathleen Thiessen & Dr David Kennedy DDS explain how many people will be injured by their decision to add hydrofluorosilicic acid to the drinking water of 18 million people in Southern California.
They aren't adding fluoride to the water. They use hydrofluosilicic acid. This is raw untreated hazardous waste from the phosphate fertilizer mining industry pollution scrubber system that is highly contaminated with arsenic, lead and a whole host of other heavy metals. It causes disproportionate harm to the malnourished, iodine deficient and minorities. Black children exposed to hydrofluosilicic acid in drinking water had a 600% increase in blood lead levels and Hispanic had a 400% increase.
Overdosing the Babies With Water Fluoridation
On August 20, 2007, the Water Quality and Operations Committee of the Metropolitan Water District of Los Angeles held a public commentary meeting. They had decided back in 2003 to fluoridate the water for the 18 million people in their supply area, but had yet to implement that decision. One of the people who commented was Kathleen A Thiessen, PhD, of the SENES Oak Ridge, Inc., Center for Risk Analysis. In her five minute presentation, she cogently and succinctly showed how water consumption varies tremendously, making it impossible to control the delivered dose of fluoride in the population. Fluoridation unavoidably produces overdoses of fluoride, especially among infants.

Politics or Science? EPA's Fluoride Drinking Water Standard
In 1985, administrators at the Environmental Protection Agency - acting against the advice of staff scientists - doubled the maximum level of fluoride that can be allowed in drinking water. This report from ABC News' Washington DC affiliate describes the lawsuit that the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) brought against the EPA administration to reverse this ruling. Unfortunately, the NRDC lost the case, and EPA was able to double the standard. For more info, see: http://www.fluoridealert.org/health/epa/

Fluoride & the Brain: "Fireworks at Forsyth"
In the early 1990s, the Chair of Toxicology at the Forsyth Dental Institute, Dr. Phyllis Mullenix, conducted animal research on the neurotoxicity of fluoride. Mullenix, expecting to find no effect, was surprised to observe that fluoride was impacting the behavior of the animals in a manner similar to what she had previously found with leukemia drugs. Based on her findings, Mullenix hypothesized that fluoride was a neurotoxin, and that the doses American children are currently receiving could pose a problem to their behavior/cognitive development. Journalist Christopher Bryson explains what happened to Mullenix after publishing her findings. 2 min - Sep 1, 2004

(28 minutes)
In this video, Christopher Bryson, an award-winning journalist and former producer at the BBC, discusses the findings of his new book The Flouride Deception. EARLY REVIEWS of The Fluoride Deception: "Bryson marshals an impressive amount of research to demonstrate fluoride?s harmfulness, the ties between leading fluoride researchers and the corporations who funded and benefited from their research, and what he says is the duplicity with which fluoridation was sold to the people. The result is a compelling challenge to the reigning dental orthodoxy, which should provoke renewed scientific scrutiny and public debate." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

The National Radio sound-bite about “Growing Unease Over Fluoridation” is certainly worth listening to.
Growing Unease
The Professor speaking is Prof. Howard Pollock of the American Dental Association (ADA) who is also Clinical Director of Dental Services at University of California.
He advises that fluoridated water should NOT be used for making up infant formula. Instead he states that the ADA is advising that mothers should avoid tap water and, instead, buy bottled (unfluoridated) water from the super-market for this purpose. He also states that the fluoride ingested by many children will exceed the tolerable intake.
On the same sound bite Dr Martin Lee claims that the ADA warning does not apply to NZ because in NZ water is only fluoridated at up to 1 ppm. But Prof. Howard Pollock contradicts Martin Lee by stating that using fluoridated water for baby formula is of real concern for water fluoridated at the standard level of 1 ppm in NZ.in most US cities and also in NZ.
He says that infant formula reconstituted using fluoridated water can cause dental fluorosis in children’s teeth even prior to tooth eruption. He states that some children (on fluoridated water supplies) will be ingesting too much fluoride.
Lawrie Brett (Whangerei dentist) and Jackie Pou (Northland anti-F campaigner) also feature very well on this sound bite.
