on 3/26/2008 Thanks for sharing. I noticed in your article about treating hypothyroidism naturally, it is important to avoid fluoride since it blocks iodine absorption. So even if you don't believe in the dangers of fluoride, if you have a thyroid problem, it's good that you can easily find out if your water is fluoridated.

on 3/13/2008 I am so glad we are on a well, as I do believe fluoride is poison. My children have never had fluoride and are healthy, with strong teeth free of cavities. We drink raw milk and take cod liver oil supplements ... the combination works wonders!

on 3/10/2008 Very good article! I'm afraid to find out what's new in our water. The last report I ever seen was nothing short of having toxic waste in it! Very sad.
I was surprised to find out that floride couldn't be boiled out of the water. On a bad day our water smells like sewage. On a good day it smells like chlorine.
