Dear Council,

 

As I showed you on Feb. 9th (slide 11):

Fluoride Poisoning of Formula Fed Babies
Units = mg of F / kg body weight / day

EPA’s Ref. Dose for Chronic Oral F Exposure, based on deleterious, objectionable dental fluorosis: 0.06

NRC 2006: effects on thyroid function at 0.05 – 0.13, and at 0.01-0.03 when iodine is inadequate

The science of Ayurveda says that tumour forms in prices viagra generic http://pamelaannschoolofdance.com/aid-7466 the pituitary gland due to doshas like vata dosha and Kapha dosha. You need to consume No Fall capsule and Maha Rasayan capsule daily two times with water in the morning and once at bedtime for four pill sildenafil months. It would be a good idea though to consult with your doctor, especially if you are a heart patient, because though cialis samples some ingredients may be natural, they can react adversely with the medication you may be taking. Among the most common factors cheapest viagra http://pamelaannschoolofdance.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/2016-2017-Fall-Schedule-8-23-16-Basic.pdf which may be killing your erection include the following, to take action on: 1.
Health Canada, 2010, Table B3 (which only reports one number per scenario, presumably a mean or median, rather than a minimum and maximum): formula-fed infants receive up to 0.12 when F concentration in water is 0.99ppm: https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/publications/healthy-living/guidelines-canadian-drinking-water-quality-guideline-technical-document-fluoride/page-4-guidelines-canadian-drinking-water-quality-guideline-technical-document-fluoride.html#tabb3

Even if you reduce F concentration in water to 0.5ppm, you will have only halved the contribution of F in Health Canada’s table that comes from the water. The contribution of F from the formula itself will still be the same. Hence, the total F intake for formula-fed infants will be more than half the numbers shown in table B3. Hence, some infants will still receive more than 0.06 mg of F / kg body weight / day.

Further, based on EPA-822-R-00-001: Infants consuming 0.8ppm F’d water receive up to 0.21 mg of F / kg body weight / day from the water alone (not including the formula contribution). Again, reduce the contribution of F from the water to correspond to 0.5ppm, and infants will still be overdosed from the water alone. See “slide 3” for F intakes from water, see “slide 4” to compare those intakes to the “no effect levels” for various adverse health effects (neurotoxicity, impaired thyroid function, etc): http://www.fluoridealert.org/wp-content/uploads/thiessen-2007.pdf

Further, F concentrations in Canadian formulas have been shown to be higher than those in U.S. formulas.

formula Canada vs US

Continue fluoridating our water, even at 0.5ppm, and you will know from official sources that you are still overdosing infants. And you already know that even un-fluoridated children are getting dental fluorosis.

Please do the right thing. Impose a moratorium immediately.

Best wishes,
