Flouride drops your testosterone levels, according to study done on Chinese farmers.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27154732


Male farmers aged 18-55 years old who lived in these villages were recruited by cluster sampling and divided into a higher fluoride exposure group (HFG) and a lower fluoride exposure group (LFG) according to the level of urinary fluoride. Levels of T and ABP in serum were measured using chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) respectively.

Markedly lower T levels were observed in male farmers from the HFG than in those from the LFG (t = 2.496, P < 0.05).

Furthermore, younger farmers, 18-29 and 30-39 years old, may be the most likely to have lower T levels when exposed to fluoride (P < 0.05).

These results supported that excess fluoride exposure decreased serum T levels of male farmers with age-specificity.




And for all you brahs who love drinking bottled waters :


U.S. regulations for bottled water do not require disclosing fluoride content.

A study of drinking water in Cincinnati, Ohio, found that bacterial counts in bottled water were often higher than those in tap water and fluoride concentration was inconsistent.

Chug down that fluoride.

i mean the studies have been out there for so many years now, but not wanting poison in your water makes you a conspiracy nut

i've noticed it's usually an all or nothing thing, the people that reject this as 'conspiracy' are usually the same people that will swallow all government facts as truth

i used to own a water distiller and when the tap water was distilled the most disgusting residue was left over and it smelled horrid

yet geniuses on say, reddit for example think tap water is the healthiest water you can drink because it has added flouride

lol

not surprised. what do you think everything else does to testosterone levels?

shampoo, toothpaste, body wash, cosmetics, deodorant, plastics, and laundry detergent. your clothes, your blankets, pillowcase etc is in contact with your skin almost constantly, think about that.

A gelding is a castrated male horse, donkey, or mule. Unless a horse is to be used for breeding purposes, it should be castrated. Gelding can make horses more even-tempered and easier to handle. Castration, as well as the elimination of hormonally-driven behavior associated with a stallion,allows a male horse to be calmer and better-behaved, making the animal quieter, gentler and potentially more suitable as an everyday working animal.

Think about it.

Drink more water, ingest more fluoride, T levels drop further and further.

Working as intended.

Reverse osmosis filtration. The brita filters with only carbon membranes doesn't remove the ions

Yep, and a bunch of other things. Kind of sucks, and its absolute horse shyt that put that poison in our water "durrr good for our teeth!" and even that's highly dubious (at least that actually ingesting it will give those benefits).

Vapor distilled water (generic smartwater) is the way to go if you don't want to mess with filtration. Kroger has it. I still use fluoride toothpaste so I don't get cavaIties though.

novamin or nano hydroxyapatite works better than fluoride. There's no reason to stick with fluoride when a better solution exists.

Not aware. I'll look into that though. Do you know anything about those charcoal toothpastes?

No idea on the charcoal toothpaste fad. Not enough research I've done to draw a conclusion, sorry.

I do know coconut oil is a better mouthwash than Listerine, and at times does just as good as chlorhexidine; There's a few NCBI articles that did experiments that reached this conclusion.
Additionally to the fact it destroys bacteria, a lot of people say it makes their teeth whiter. Wouldn't recommend for ones who are squeamish though.

Xylitol,an sugar alcohol , also has been proven to destroy mouth bacteria, as it tricks the bacteria into eating it... which it can't digest, thus literally starving the bacteria to death.

I got this filter just because it is simple and cheap. Filters out 91% of fluoride, verified by lab tests. Filters out other junk too. They say the filters need to be replaced every six months, but it actually seems like less often than that, so it's not bad on cost. Next thing I want to get is a shower filter. There is pretty high levels of chlorine in tap water as well. I stayed at my brother's house for a couple months which is on a well, then went to my parents house which is on city water supply and I could totally smell the chlorine at my parents when I took my first shower. After that I got used to it and could no longer smell it, but it is proof of the high amounts of chlorine in the tap water.

Careful on chloramine. It's like chlorine but much harder to get rid of by filters.
Make sure whichever filter you get, get rids of chloramine as well.

Testosterone makes males too aggressive and resistant to control.

If any gov't would be devious enough to try and lower their populations T levels, it would be China.

Lets see a raise of hands of the people that trust the government to accurately fluoridate your water across the entire nation.

No one? Okay that's what I thought and that's why it should be removed.

If you want fluoride on your teeth you have toothpaste and dental visits to take care of you.

We want fluoride INSIDE us - hence the tap water. Probably the greatest medical accomplishment of this era
