The Truth About Fluoride

In today's episode, I'm talking about fluoride. Is fluoride a necessity in mouthwash, toothpaste and our water supply?

Here are 5 things to consider before making fluoride a part of your routine:

1. Fluoride inhibits the thyroid stimulating hormone output from the pituitary gland. Without a strong signal to the thyroid to make thyroid hormones, T4 and T3 production decrease.
2. Fluoride is much lighter and more reactive than iodine, so it easily displaces iodine in the body. 
3. Fluoride inhibits multiple antioxidant enzymes and lowers glutathione levels.
4. Fluoride exposure leads to cell membrane degeneration and decreases the lifespan of red blood cells.
5. Fluoride depletes our body of energy. Whether we are talking about the thyroid, glutathione, iron or straight up depleting ATP production by inhibiting the enzyme ATPase.
