A recent study has discovered a startling link between fluoride intake and hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid is a disease which causes the body’s thyroid gland to fail to produce adequate levels of important hormones. This causes a host of undesirable side-effects such as weight gain, depression, fatigue and in the worst cases cretinism which can cause severe mental and physical developmental delays in children. This can also lead to…

Read More5 percent of the world has rejected or is in the process of removing fluoride from their drinking water. The latest large-scale halt of artificial chemical water fluoridation came from Israel on August 26, 2014. There Health Minister Yael German followed through with her announcement to end water fluoridation after 30 years of the practice. While most of the world has opened its eyes to the dangers of artificial water fluoridation, Canada and the United States are still…
Read MoreWhen I first met Liesa Cianchino, I was impressed by her enthusiasm and outspoken opinion about the artificial fluoridation of Toronto's water supply. Now I can see just how deep her devotion goes. She has a remarkable drive which has become more apparent after the announcement of her new lawsuit against the Region of Peel here in Ontario, Canada. First and foremost, you have to understand that it takes a huge amount of conviction, and personal sacrifice…

Over the past few months, concerned citizens (including myself and Danny) have been contacting Toronto City Councillors regarding their stances on water fluoridation. While some were quite forthcoming with their thoughts, sadly, exactly half were completely silent on the issue. The city councillors who did not respond were contacted at least 2-3 times via e-mail and/or telephone, but still would not disclose a stance. Some also said they would respond, but…
Read MoreOur grocery stores are riddled with rows of toothpastes containing sodium fluoride and bottled beverages containing hydrofluorosilicic or hexafluorosilicic acid (the same type of fluoride found in certain cleaning products and our tap water). Many agricultural food products are highly contaminated with "fluoride" residue from conventional insecticides and pesticides. Fluoride's use as an insecticide extends beyond the farm into the home and is often found in roach and other insect killers. But where does this chemical…

Read MoreAshley and I would like to thank everyone who joined us at Saturday's peaceful assembly at Toronto City Hall. Despite 18 hours of straight rain starting Friday night, the weather could not dampen our spirits. Having so many people come out and stand in the pouring rain is a testament to how passionate so many of us are about getting hydrofluorosilicic acid out of our water supply. Commonly referred to as fluoride, this acid is highly toxic and has been shown by…
