Fluoride etc

You're not supposed to eat the paste.

Lowers iq

>>9139115
but you absorb it and it gets into your saliva anyway so you do eat it.

https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/fluoride-childrens-health-grandjean-choi/

The average loss in IQ was reported as a standardized weighted mean difference of 0.45, which would be approximately equivalent to seven IQ points for commonly used IQ scores with a standard deviation of 15. Some studies suggested that even slightly increased fluoride exposure could be toxic to the brain.

>>9139129
no you dont absorb it. you wash and rinse after brushing, dont you?

>>9139140
what do you think sodium fluoride does in your mouth anon

>>9139143
Obviously it keeps you from turning into a reptilian too so the gubment can keep using you as a slave.

>>9139131
>children

>>9139312
>none of us are children
Where do you think you are?

The concentrations are far too low to do anything.

The toxic part of toothpaste is not flouride, but the triclosan. Flouride labels are just mandatory, but triclosan is a topic antiseptic that shouldn't be ingested.

>>9139131
>https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/fluoride-childrens-health-grandjean-choi/
>The researchers conducted a systematic review of studies, almost all of which are from China where risks from fluoride are well-established. Fluoride is a naturally occurring substance in groundwater, and exposures to the chemical are increased in some parts of China.

That study looked at places with levels of fluoride that were already dangerous. In the US fluoride levels in water are regulated.

>>9139131
But Americans put Flouride in their water, so what's a little extra from toothpaste gonna do?

>>9139458
>regulated
No, they aren't. For two reasons:
-You cannot control all sources of fluoride a given individual has, or variation in excretion / retention rate
-Many municipal water supplies do not actually conform to the levels set by regulations. Google this if you want to know more.

Also, sodium fluoride is not what's actually added to water. There are a few major formulations, with varying composition. Most of which severely contaminated with heavy metals, and a byproduct of phosphate extraction. None of which being sodium fluoride, and one some volatile compound that has unpredictable reaction / breakdown products once it's actually added to water.

It's absurd.

>>9139458
This. there's a difference between there being a few parts per million of fluoride per unit volume of water, and ingesting enough fluoride to cause cognitive imparemnt

What about animal products and non-organic vegetables?

That's fear talking, not reason.

>>9139471
>he dosen't know that the dose makes the poison

>>9139481
That's not universally true, some things are inherently detrimental to a given system, regardless of dose. And the doses present here are harmful. That's the point of the post buddy boyo.

>>9139466

>>9139466
So you are claiming that someone is intentionally putting toxic stuff in our water?

Also, volatile is a specific term in chemistry. It doesn't mean unstable. It means that molecules easily evaporate.

>>9139492
>So you are claiming that someone is intentionally putting toxic stuff in our water?
Purpose is irrelevant.

>Also, volatile is a specific term in chemistry.
Irrelevant. Meaning is inferred via context and level of knowledge. That's how you still knew what I meant, and you'd also know what I meant if I said "volatile organic compound".

Don't needy and defensive.

If you cared you'd go get a degree in medicine and come back and say "yeah I was right, after years of studying biology and medicine I've determined that fluoride is bad". But you won't.

Only uneducated dipshits peddle this garbage.

>It's funny how chemists, biologists, and doctors don't but into any of this stupid shit. Only uneducated dipshits.
How many chemists, biologists, and doctors do you know? How many have you talked to?

Oh that's right, probably ~0. You're just operating on the mythical notion of "consensus" and assuming all of a field is one person, because you're not a scientist and have this starry eyes ivory tower-esque delusion of science.

Most people's opinions aren't rational, adaptive, or intelligent. In a modern cultural climate that rigidly demands conformity to a top down engineered consensus, the problem is compounded.

It's not just fluoride. It's a fluoride salt. Don't be one of those people who thinks table salt gives you chlorine poisoning.

Fluoride has been proven to prevent tooth decay. If you're in a place without fluoride in the water you should be taking fluoride supplements or else your teeth might have to be removed. The benefits far outweigh the supposed risks. Don't fall for the bottled water meme.

Oh, and it turns frogs gay.

The anger stems from fear. It was known in the late 50's that modulated fields could affect electron transport relative to various cell structures, and that they altered calcium efflux. Many papers spoke plainly about this, and there was none of the trash you see in modern literature where they pussyfoot around and repeatedly address whether or not it's "thermal", as though they're afraid of falling out of line. Of course it's largely non-thermal, it's been determined repeatedly that effects are seen at levels below 0.5mW/cm2.

You saying that doesn't magically make it not the case. People like you make no sense. If what you were saying was true, you'd be able to publish a study and become a world-renowned scientist. You won't because you can't prove anything, because it's not true, and you've been proven wrong by dozens of anons with actual educations over and over again.

>>9141174
I don't have to publish much of anything. The research was more or less in place ~1995. Everything after that point was details and how various factors relate. The studies have been done. We know pulsed fields alter certain aspects of membrane potential (such that a ligand binding to its receptor achieves a different outcome), and activate calcium channels.

Par for the course. Most people aren't leaders.

I can see the argument against consuming fluoride or adding it to water, but I really don't see any argument for not using it topically or through a rinse (which you're not meant to consume). Using "natural" ingredients instead seems like it would just predispose you to softer teeth and decay. But I'm not a dental professional or a doctor.

Does theobromine act in the same way as fluoride? I've heard that different substances like xylitol or CPP-ACP promote remineralization in different ways than fluoride. I'm a layman so I can't evaluate this with much depth on my own. I'm now inspired to add cacao to my diet in either case.

Par for the course. Most people aren't leaders. Whether cigarettes are bad or good relative to a given value system is irrelevant, because the above is largely what drives it. The same mechanics.

In summary, wi-fi, cell phones, bluetooth, power line emissions, etc, are biologically active and detrimental. This has been known for a long time, and yet, we did it anyway. We dug ourselves in this deep. Look around at all these fucked up people, with fucked up little problems. Everywhere. You really think this is all natural? A function of population, certain ratio for any given quantity, and that's why you see it everywhere? Fuck no.

>>9139187

>>9141318
The difference, which you are unable to accept, is that cigarettes have an overwhelming amount of evidence suggesting that they cause cancer and early death, are costly, and are a choice. The amount of overlap here is too small to be an effective comparison.

>>9141346
> Look around at all these fucked up people, with fucked up little problems. Everywhere. You really think this is all natural? A function of population, certain ratio for any given quantity, and that's why you see it everywhere?
Did you just assume that different populations would have different levels of different diseases without the "biologically active and detrimental" factors, and then use that as evidence that they are detrimental?

Fluoride ion is a 5HT-2A antagonist. Psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin are 5HT-2A agonists. Fluoride makes you a narrow-minded sheep.

I thought it was that the amount of flouride isn't important, but it has to be diluted? So like even though you ingest more flouride by drinking water, it's diluted, as opposed to eating paste straight up
