Fluoride: Poison on Tap (optional video and video quiz)
This video is somewhat controversial to certain people. I am not asking you to necessarily believe what they say. I do believe in the validity of this documentary. Why do dentists still use fluoride? Pay attention to where fluoride actually comes from and what it is. Leave your comments in the comments section. You are entitled to believe what you want. I include this in the course content because I think it is important to have a full picture of the fluoride controversy. I have researched and examined this controversial practice for many years. I avoid fluoride like the plague. I am amazed that this practice still goes on in the U.S., yet most countries have banned the use of fluoride. They sell it to the U.S., and we dump it in out drinking water. They even put it in your breakfast cereal. They are not required to even tell you that or inform you if it is in your bottled water. (Talk about lack of transparency) To me, that is insane and there is no science that backs the use of fluoride in our water. The actual substance they put in the water is called fluorosilicic-acid. Pay attention to the history of how and why the U.S. started putting fluoride in the drinking water? Also, note the number of countries that still use this practice compared to the ones that do not. Each question is worth .01 points for a total of .1 points (10 questions). For example, if you score 8 out of 10 correctly, your grade will show as 0.8, which I will chance to (16 out of 20) points in due time.
