U.S. Court battle begins: Does water fluoridation violate the Toxic Substance Control Act?

(NaturalHealth365) On Monday, June 8th, a federal court trial began in San Francisco that could be the beginning of the end of water fluoridation in the United States. The Fluoride Action Network (FAN), an alliance of groups led by the Food & Water Watch – a government accountability nonprofit – is suing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to force it to limit or ban adding fluoride to American drinking water.

The group is arguing that fluoridation violates the Toxic Substance Control Act and presents an unreasonable risk to the general public, especially young children and babies in the womb.

A short history of the fluoride wars

Water fluoridation was once heralded as one of the best public health achievements of the twentieth century. It’s almost hard to believe that public “health experts” would think that putting industrial-grade fluoride chemicals into the public water supply is a “good thing.” But, they did!

Since 1946, municipal water utilities have added the chemical to tap water with the goal of improving dental health. Today, almost 75 percent of people in the U.S. on public water systems drink fluoridated water.
