Dentists Oppose Fluoridation; You Should Too
Professionals Urge End to Water Fluoridation
Below abstract indicates fluoride fed animals performed poorly in
performance tests due to mito damage in brain cells.
Neurotoxicity of fluoride: neurodegeneration in hippocampus of female
mice.
Light microscopic study of hippocampal sub-regions demonstrated
significant number of degenerated nerve cell bodies in the CA3, CA4
and dentate gyrus(Dg) areas of sodium fluoride administered adult
female mice. Ultrastructural studies revealed neurodegenrative
characteristics like involution of cell membranes, swelling of
mitochondria, clumping of chromatin material etc, can be observed in
cell bodies of CA3, CA4 and dentate gyrus (Dg). Fluoride intoxicated
animals also performed poorly in motor co-ordination tests and maze
tests. Inability to perform well increased with higher fluoride
concentration in drinking water. PMID: 12622200
