It is well known that toothpastes containing fluoride and its compounds can prevent the development of caries. In order to prevent caries in the 1960s, they resorted to water fluoridation. The positive effect of such a decision was obvious, but over time, scientists discovered that the harm from water fluoridation is more than good. The ingress of uncontrolled this substance into the body is fraught with negative consequences, including for the brain. The WHO has listed fluorine as one of the ten most dangerous chemicals. Today estet-portal.com will tell you why this neurotoxin is so dangerous for the brain.  

What problems can the neurotoxin fluoride cause?

Neurotoxin – This is a substance that leads to the destruction of the tissues of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Fluoride can negatively affect the brain during the most important stages of human life – before birth and in early childhood. It has been compared to lead, arsenic, mercury, toluene and PCBs in terms of brain damage because it may be one of the reasons:

  • autism;
  • attention deficit hyperactivity disorder;
  • dyslexia;
  • low IQ;
  • aggressive behavior; and
  • other cognitive impairments.

Harvard School of Public Health and China Medical University jointly analyzed 27 studies on the effects of fluoride and concluded that it is harmful to brain development. Children who consume large amounts of fluoride (ingested from water, food, toothpaste) tend to perform much worse on IQ tests than their peers who manage to avoid it. This has been confirmed by 49 human studies.  

Even in the 1970s, experts noticed that in patients with Alzheimer's disease, the concentration & nbsp; aluminum neurotoxin in the brain is increased. It is now clear how fluorine is related to this. The blood-brain barrier that prevents harmful substances from entering the brain. However, fluorine combined with aluminum (aluminum fluoride) is able to overcome this barrier and deposit in nerve cells, leading to the development of Alzheimer's disease.

The thyroid gland is also "afraid" of fluoride, which significantly increases the risk of hypothyroidism. Fluorine binds to iodine receptors and leads to a significant decrease in the amount of iodine required for normal thyroid activity. As a result, the thyroid gland cannot synthesize hormones in the required quantities.

Thus, an underactive thyroid leads to:

  • clouding of consciousness;
  • memory loss;
  • deterioration of concentration;
  • depression;
  • anxiety;
  • Cognitive impairment.

When fluoride crosses the BBB, it leads to disruption of the hippocampus, cerebellum and neocortex. The hippocampus is responsible for memory and is very important for learning, controlling emotions, and suppressing the response to stress. The neocortex is involved in sensory perception, thinking, and the cerebellum is extremely important for motor coordination and balance.

However, the neurotoxin fluorine causes damage not only to the brain, but also to the spinal cord, as well as nerves.

The pineal gland is also negatively affected. Epiphysis – it is a small brain structure responsible for the production of melatonin – a powerful antioxidant that protects the brain from serious diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, and prolongs life. When melatonin production is disrupted, you may experience:

  • insomnia;
  • depression;
  • accelerated aging of the brain.

Fluoride, which is found in antidepressants such as Prozac (fluoxetine), can actually cause depression. In addition to Prozac, fluoride is found in:

  • Paxila;
  • Zoloft;
  • Lexapro.

Therefore, dealing with depression with natural remedies – not only safer, but also more efficient.

How to protect yourself from the negative effects of fluoride?

  1. Purchase a water filter (not for everyone, a reverse osmosis filter is required).
  2. Use fluoride-free toothpaste.
  3. There are fewer canned and semi-finished products.
  4. Drink natural juices and clean water.
  5. Do not overdo it with teas (tea leaves are saturated with fluorine from the soil, and the "older" the plant, the more neurotoxin it may contain).
