"Scientifically unsound and academically dishonest" is how a peer review describes the Northland District Health Board's report on the Far North fluoridation trial of 2007-2009. The review was sent today to the Far North District Council by Fluoride Action Network NZ Inc; New Zealand's experts in the science against fluoridation. A copy is available on FANNZ website www.fannz.org.nz.
The equipment failure throughout the entire study means any benefits must have come from other causes, such as the range of dental health programmes conducted at the same time, the review says.
The review recommends, amongst other things, that the FNDC classify the NDHB's report "as an 'opinion piece', to be afforded no probative value until the raw data is released to the FNDC and FANNZ for independent peer-review."
"The NDHB refuses to allow independent peer review of its data, even though its claimed 'obligation of confidence' to participants ended when the report was published" says Mark Atkin (BSc), author of the review.
All data was assigned a code number to ensure anonymity of participants. In signing the consent forms participants' parents agreed that this was adequate protection of confidentiality. "So what is the problem?" asks Mr Atkin.
The FNDC will next discuss fluoridation, and proposals for a public referendum, at its February meeting.
"Given the weight that the previous Council decided would be given to this report, we felt it important that councillors have an independent peer review of it. The review has been checked by a medical doctor and dentist, so this is not just a lay person's opinion" stresses Mr Atkin.

Europe is now 98% fluoride
Europe is now 98% fluoride free. They and most of the world caught on to this fluoridation hoax years ago. Adding fluoride to drinking water is an absolute waste of money. People only drink 1/2 % of the water they use. The remaining 99 1/2% simply goes down the drain. I guess we expect government programs to be inefficient and wasteful, but this sets a new low in waste of taxpayers money. Giving away fluoride tablets free to whoever wants them would be much cheaper. The only benefits of putting it in drinking water go to the industries which can sell their toxic waste fluoride to communities.
When the fertilitzer companies, and others, clean their smokestacks, they bag the waste fluoride chemical, ( Hydrofluorosilicic Acid), which contains lead, mercury, arsenic, etc. and sell it to communities to add to our water systems. The Government tries to convince us that it does not harm us if it is diluted enough, but hundreds of research studies prove otherwise.
Those promoting fluoridation simply refuse to read the current research showing it is ineffective and dangerous to health. Go to (www.fluoridealert.org) and read several scientific articles.
Read the letter from Dr. Hardy Limeback ( DDS, PhD Biochemistry) --- Head, Preventive Dentistry, University of Toronto entitled "Why I am now officially opposed to adding fluoride to drinking water"
He was the principal research advisor to the Canadian Dental Asociation for over 10 years in promoting fluoridation. His letter is an apology to other dentists and the public.
Dr. Limeback includes over 140 Research studies, including:
Increased risk of bone cancer -- 13 studies
Lead, arsenic, radium contaminants causing toxic water -- 10 studies
Link with fluoride and other cancer -- 12 studies
Fluoride causes birth defects -- 5
Fluoride affects the immune systems -- 12
Fluoride is neurotoxic (brain, nerves, lowering IQ) -- 11
Etc.
Also see the petition signed by over 2600 professionals opposing fluoridation.
Fluoride causes Hashimoto's
Fluoride causes Hashimoto's disease, a common form of hypothyroidism which can lead to heart problems. Fluoride is a poison which splits, distorts and damages enzymes, resulting in the failure of immune proteins to recognize body proteins causing autoimmune diseases. Thyroid antibodies produced causes Thyroiditis resulting Hashimoto's Disease, affecting millions of people.
Musculo Skeletal damage results further from the enzyme toxic effect causing Rheumatoid illness, osteoporosis, deformation of bones and bone cancer. This toxic effects extends to enamel of the teeth, causing pitting and brown stains known as dental fluorosis.
All we want is to have freedom of choice because most people do not want to ingest fluoride.
If the goverment realy care
If the goverment realy care about our teeth they would force (just like they are forcing fluoride) sugar, soft drinks smoking etc to be banned.
Why do dentists campain for Fluoride, well its because it makes costomers for them.
Is it lawful for the government to medicate you against your consent?
Does the government have jurisdiction to medicate me against my consent?
Is legislation that causes compulsory fluoridation ultra-virez parliaments power? (beyond the legislated power and authority of parliament to enact?)
Do you agree that, even if a medication is good for me, that I have a right to not be medicated if I don't want that medication?
If you say apples are good for me and I also like apples, does that mean you have the right to force me eat an apple when I don't want one?
If a food or medicine is good for me, do I still have a right to not eat it or not take it?

Fluoridation was never
Fluoridation was never really about dental health. The federal government in the US merely used that deception which Alcoa Aluminum founder had from his position of power in government created. He used federal and industry money to fund faked studies that hid the damage fluoride caused and instead claimed benefits. The military needed protection for our atom bomb project as fluoride toxicity lawsuits were filed against WW2 military contractors. You can not make bomb grade uranium without huge amounts of fluoride. They also needed medical data of exactly how much fluoride exposure damaged workers. Workers were having mental confusion and putting military production at risk. Two birds with one stone. Chris Bryson in The Fluoride Deception has detailed this farce with a book half once secret documents released in 1996 detailing the complete fraud.
Any dental benefits are proven topical not ingested and 1ppm ingested is too low for any topical effect. 1000ppm and above can do that that is off set in young kids with the greater damage it doses as the majority swallow more then they spit. Then some just eat because it is as tasty as candy. http://www.fluoridealert.org http://www.iaomt.org http://www.nteu280.org for the EPA union fight to halt fluoridation fraud. Yes 19 EPA unions now ask congress to halt fluoridation. They have not responded.
