Feds Say It's Time to Cut Back on Fluoride in Drinking Water (npr.org)

"The only documented risk of water fluoridation is fluorosis, and it is primarily a cosmetic risk," says Barbara Gooch

Well technically we know that the pineal gland absorbs fluoride more readily than any other part of the body.. but we don't yet know the total consequences of messing with this crucial part of our endocrine system.

Couldn't you theorize that messing with the natural endocrine system can lead to the rise in feminized men, homosexuality and other gender confusion?


Well that phenomenon must go back thousands of years, given the fact that many pre-modern civilizations involved such things.


Lead poisoning in the aqueduct system is one theory for the fall of the Roman empire.
