News Flash: Fluoridated Drinking Water is BAD For Teeth!

The feds are planning to almost-halve the recommended level of fluorides in municipal drinking water supplies. Good.

They are doing this -unfortunately, this is a surprise these days- out of apparent concern for a health problem caused by excessive fluoride intake. Turns out it causes cosmetic damage to teeth. Okay, it also causes teeth to rot and fall out but hey . . .

Gee, if only anyone had known before now that water supplies should not be poisoned fluoridated! I guess it's a good thing the only possible side-effect of massive doses of this supplement without patient consent is a mere cosmetic dental blemish . . . oh, wait. . . .
