Hi, I'm Paul and I work for Prosper Learning and I would want to know if you have any info about sodium hexafluosilicate that is added to drinking water It is known to cause some mental disease if used on long term.
Water fluoridation has provoked controversy though opponents of fluoridation have not assembled as a majority in the scientific community. Whether for health concerns or concerns of consent or because their people are receiving fluoride through other means, some governments have ceased or decided not to start fluoridating their water.
Anyway, it seems that fluoridation is still used in 60% of US territories.
Best regards,

...well from they way you were talking you aren't from the us...that is nothing more than an assumption but its not like it matters you probably wont ever be back. but anyhow, you are correct on the 60% fact, sadly during the first nuclear bomb creations there was also a creation of a copias of nuclear waste. and they use the "insertion" of fluoride into our water supply to slowly but surly get rid of it. i know this sounds like it made up but i was curious about this a weeks ago and discovered some facts about it.

short- nuclear waste from 1935-55 had to be disposed so they use our water.

Use of fluorides is of importance for the control and prevention of dental caries in both children and adults. The ingestion of fluoride results in its incorporation into the dentin and enamel of unerupted teeth; this makes the teeth more resistant to acid attack after eruption into the oral cavity as the tooth structure contains increased concentrations of fluorohydroxyapatite, which is more resistant to future attack by acids.

Water fluoridation provides protection to primary teeth against dental caries but to somewhat lesser degree then permanent teeth. Caries reduction benefits to primary teeth ranged between 40% and 50%, whereas the range for permanent teeth was between 50% and 60%, which persists throughout the lifetime of the person. 56% decrease in the prevalence of root-surface caries in adults who lived in continually fluoridated community was observed.

Till now no adverse affects of water fluoridation has been reported even after its use for the past 30-50 years. So dont worry..........go ahead and drink.....
