How Fluoride Works
Fluoride inhibits enzymes by binding to enzyme cofactors such as magnesium and phosphate, it was not until 1981 that chemists were able to explain how fluoride could chemically interact with enzymes themselves to cause enzyme inhibition. 

Fluoride has the ability to form hydrogen bonds with some of the protein's amide groups; as a result, fluoride disrupts the hydrogen bonds holding the protein in its normal shape. In this way, fluoride can disrupt the enzyme activity of proteins whose ability to trigger a reaction is highly dependent on a shape stabilized by these hydrogen bonds. 

The Aging Factor 

ENZYME INHIBITION BY FLUORIDE AT 1 PART PER MILLION OR LESS 

On 10/28/88 and 4/11/89, Battelle Laboratories in Columbus, Ohio under contract from the NTP reported an extremely rare form of liver cancer, hepatocholangiocarcinomas, in fluoride-treated male and female mice. Battelle also reported a relationship between fluoride and oral precancerous cells as well as a relationship between fluoride and oral tumors or cancers in both male and female rats. 

The vast majority of all fluoride additives come from Tampa Bay, Florida smokestack scrubbers. The additives are a toxic byproduct of the super phosphate fertilizer industry . We're exposing innocent, unsuspecting people to deadly elements of lead, arsenic and radium, all of them carcinogenic. Because of the cumulative properties of toxins, the detrimental effects on human health are catastrophic.

Residents of cities that fluoridate have double the fluoride in their hip bones vis-a-vis the balance of the population. Worse, we discovered that fluoride is actually altering the basic architecture of human bones.

Skeletal fluorosis is a debilitating condition that occurs when fluoride accumulates in bones, making them extremely weak and brittle. The earliest symptoms? Cavity rates are low all across the industrialized world including Europe, which is 98% fluoride free. Low because of improved standards of living, less refined sugar, regular dental checkups, flossing and frequent brushing. 

The greatest danger is that professional applications of fluoride are potentially lethal when systematically consumed in large quantities. Assistants need to know the levels of fluoride toxicity and how to prevent patients from swallowing topical preparations. They must be able to recognize the onset of symptoms and they must know how to administer emergency treatment if a patient swallows fluoride.
