![]() ![]() Paul Connett: 50 reasons to oppose fluoridation EPA’s Union of Scientists and Engineers (You Tube video) Finally, several individuals, groups, or countries which oppose water fluoridation are mentioned. Also discussed are the side effects of fluoridation, including accidents as well as risks of exposure to infants, citing the ADA’s own manual which states that infants should not drink fluoridated water. We discuss fluoridation studies, covering information published by the CDC’s scientists, and further discuss ways that pro fluoride groups have perverted evidence to further their cause. ![]() John Colquhoun, a previous Principal Dental Officer from New Zealand. Among the evidence brought out is a chart graphing the decline of dental carries in both fluoridated and non-fluoridated communities around the world and an essay titled “ Why I Changed My Mind About Fluoridation“, by Dr. I ask the questions… “Is it safe?” and “Is it effective?” on the way to answering the ultimate question, “Is it worth it?”. Part 3 of 4, This episode will focus on the “safe and effective” aspects of water fluoridation. The combination of hypochlorous acid and ammonia forms chloramines: NH 3 + HOCl = NH 2Cl + H 2Oįluoridation – Safe and Effective ….Really? (click to listen in a new window) Hypochlorous acid breaking into the hypochlorite ion at higher pH: OH (Hydroxyl) + HOCL (Hypochlorous) = H2O (Water) + OCL (Hypochlorite)Īdding liquid chlorine to water raises pH by forming caustic soda: NaOCL (Sodium Hypochlorite) + H 2O = HOCL + NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide / Caustic Soda) We also discuss perchorate and, wrapping up the show, I ask you to do me a favor.Īs discussed in the show, below are some chemical equations for subjects which we covered:Īdding gas chlorine to water drops pH by formation of two acids: Cl 2 + H 2O = HOCL (Hypochlorous) + HCL (Hydrochloric Acid) We discuss ferric chloride and alum as coagulants, lime and carbon dioxide for alkalininty, hardness, and pH control, and gas chlorine, liquid chlorine, and chloramines as disinfectants. I discuss a speech I recently gave about this podcast, and then we hop into the meat of the show covering chemicals we use in treatment. In this episode I answer a couple of common questions I often receive pertaining to searching for jobs in the water industry. ![]()
