Associated Press caught lying about water fluoridation: In a recent piece published at emissourian.com, for instance, which reads more like an epitaph, the Associated Press (AP) bemoans the fact that Pevely, Missouri, a local community near St. Louis, has decided to stop adding fluoride to its water supply in order to conserve much-needed funds. And in memorializing the great loss of its beloved fluoride in Pevely, the AP makes false insinuations that added fluoride chemicals are exactly the same as naturally occurring fluoride minerals.
After commenting about how fluoride minerals are naturally present in water supplies throughout the St. Louis area, the unidentified AP writer explains how these levels are not "optimal." He or she then goes on to say that cities that fluoridate their water supplies are simply topping off fluoride levels to reach this so-called "optimal" range, making no differentiation between natural fluoride and chemical fluorides like hexafluorosilicic acid and sodium hexafluorosilicate.
Ed: The issue with water fluoridation is not just one of efficacy, but also about personal freedom from mass medication. If we are at such massive teeth rot risk, rather issue free fluoride tablets, than "mass medicating" the population .
