The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology is an organization that is comprised of about 800 currently active members that are located in North America at the moment.
The group also has chapter affiliations in over a dozen different countries around the world. Throughout the years since the group's inception, they have chronicled and promoted what they see to be the most current research in their area of expertise.
October is regarded as national dental hygiene month, and this group of dentists is taking that opportunity to highlight the risks associated with fluoride.
They've posted a variety of resources to their website for the occasion, with information detailing the health risks that they believe are associated with fluoride. And they've clearly carved out their stance, in opposition to using fluoride in dental materials, as well as in the water, or having it used in other products.
On their site, they've detailed the dramatic increase in rates of exposure when it comes to water fluoridation and they admit that substantial sources of fluoride exposure now exist such as in fertilizers, soil, food, cookware, and more.
The group analyzed hundreds of different studies on this subject.
They allege that fluoride can have a severe negative impact on the body and that fluoride has been linked to a variety of potential health risks. They have urged the public to try and limit their exposure to fluoride wherever and whenever possible.
The IAMT has pointed out on their site that fluoride is recognized as one of 112 industrial chemicals that are known to cause developmental neurotoxicity in humans.
Among the health risks that are believed to be associated with exposure to fluoride are concerns for things like bone weakness, bone cancer, cardiac insufficiency, cognitive deficits, early puberty in females, damage to the fetal brain, insomnia, complications with the immune system, lower IQ, thyroid dysfunction, and much more.
The IAMT has concluded that for those who have an increased exposure to fluoride, that they are likely to see an increase when it comes to the health risks.
And it isn't only people they are concerned about, they say that today's significant fluoride use also poses a risk to plants, animals, and the environment as well.

Thanks for bring this topic to the surface again.
The U.S. exposes more people to fluoride in the water than the rest of the world combined. It has to stop! Upvoted 100% and resteemed!
thanks for your comment @marymg2014 :) always happy to see you stop by✌
They (the ruling elite) know fully what this toxin does - it makes people more subservient which is why it's put in the water - teeth are a very lame cover story...

Good one !👍😂
Shared with my followers.
A really important subject these days. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted and reposted.
Good info there. Fluoride was used to dumb down the population. I think of Hitler and his interest in it. I also think of Dr. Strangelove and what they said in that movie of the effects of fluoride. It is good that this is getting out. I hope we can see some changes soon.
Why would someone want to make people dumb? 😀 😃 😄 😁 😆
If you can dumb down a people you can control them. Fluoride in the drinking water creates lower IQ and makes them more docile
What kind of psychopath would want to make people more docile??? 😐 😑 😯 😦 😧 😮 😲 😵 I hope you have a WONDERFUL WEEKEND!
I have heard about this before, good post. Apparently also chlorine is a problem and we get more chlorine from showering than from drinking water. Insomnia can be a terrible thing and lead to or exacerbate other health problems. Thanks again, I hope you have a WONDERFUL day! 😀 😃 😄 😁 😆
thanks for stopping by :)!
I like your posts they are alternative - they show that you think different from the main stream. But not in a crazy way. You back your statements up with facts. Like I knew sort of about fluoride being in water and stuff but I had forgotten the details about why it is good or bad and why it is good or bad. :-) Thanks again and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Wonderful information Dear @doitvoluntarily u shared. I have got very important knowledge no doubt. I will try my best to limit exposure on fluoride on possible limits
Great post as always @doitvoluntarily ! We have long known about the dangers of to much fluoride here in Canada , but I did not know so much about it being in the fertilizer , food , cookware and soil and then we plant our vegetable seeds that grow in this !! How does a person even know that while we are trying to eat more healthy by growing our own gardens its in our fertilizer and soil !! This is ridiculous there should be warnings on the stuff we buy about it ! Thanks for the info ! Upped and resteemed !!👍✌💕👍✌💕
One thing that I think may be underestimated in terms of improving our soil is fulvic acid. You can also drink it.
Humm ! Interesting!👍💕
I'm glad you found my comment interesting :-) have a great day.
Great post and a most appropriate subject. It is also worthy of mention that from a great deal of research I've done on the subject it seems that fluoride also causes aluminum to "stick" to the synapses of the brain. Considering the massive amount of aluminum we are exposed to on a daily basis it raises quite a concern. I've only found one option for complete removal after this has happened and it is the combination of malic acid and silica. I am sure there are many detox solutions that address toxic overload but none that I can find that addresses the issue more completely than the malic acid in conjunction with silica. There is great need for more research on the subject and a more directed approach to having this insane chemical removed from our water and food supply.
I like the graphic u used here. good taste. i enjoyed seeing it in my busy.org feed.
doitvoluntarily thank you very much for informing us about this organisation(IAMT) and the good work that they are doing in our society.Through your post l have managed to learn more about the health risks of fluoride.
my mom, @kgoulet , is a dentist. she should look at this
hiii @doitvoluntarily, you always shared important articles, now once again you shared important post about health, thanks for updates.
it's really amazing post....,
Really? SO I shouldn't brush my teeth?
Good question!
there are options out there that don't have fluoride ✌ thx for your comment :)
Fantastic post, love it
❤❤❤❤❤❤
My city voted to have it removed from its water. I wonder if they actually did it though.
You have a lot of awesome posts, but this is by far one of your best ones man. I needed this one today! Thanks.
