Fluoride – Friend or Foe?

Did you know that fluoride in toothpaste can be a cause and trigger of some skin ailments?

For example perioral dermatitis and also rosacea in women both can be caused by the use of fluoride toothpaste. When the toothpaste is stopped and replaced with a fluoride-free toothpaste, the symptoms disappear.

Fluoride can also cause mouth ulcers “canker sores”, along with inflammation of the stomach “stomatitis” and other digestive disorders.

Poisoning from fluoride is kept pretty hush hush, because as you can understand it is a multi-billion dollar business because it’s something people do every day – clean their teeth and buy a LOT of toothpaste. American Dr Edward Group says “Fluoride is one of the most toxic substances known to man”.

In the US, the FDA in 1997, ordered manufacturers to disclose a Poison Warning on their fluoride toothpastes sold in the US. The warning reads: “Keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If you accidentally swallow more than used for brushing, seek professional help or contact a poison control centre immediately.”
