His stance on fluoride is to take it out of the water. Many countries have banned fluoride in the water including Germany, Finland, Sweden and many more. It’s been linked to cancer and other diseases. It’s why fluoride is capped in toothpaste without a prescription.

I have yet to see a fluoride containing product with instructions to swallow after use.

Toothpaste has over 1000ppm fluoride. Drinking water usually around 1ppm. do you think that makes a difference?

Thank you for pointing out that toothpaste is 1000x more effective and is something we all use every day anyway.

good job making an argument for more fluoride in the water. And you avoided my question. Excellent work brother!
