Why Fluoride is so DANGEROUS and What To Do About It

The Dangers of Fluoride

One of the most common (and somewhat ironic) side effects of fluoride exposure is fluorosis, which is the permanent deformation of the teeth. This is why it usually occurs in children during the first eight years of their life when their permanent teeth begin to form.

For physical deformities caused by fluorosis, include dis-coloration, ranging from yellow to dark brown, irregularities on the surface of the teeth, and large gaping holes can form holes in the teeth.

3 Quick Ways To Remove Fluoride From Water

1. Reverse Osmosis
2. Activated Alumina
3. Deionization

Remember that fluoride is added to many local water municipal supplies. Consequently, the chemical is inherent in the water upon reaching your tap.

Fluoride Free Water Options

It is possible to drink water without fluoride and your options include:

Drinking spring water.

Only using and drinking distilled water.

Pass your water through the correct filter (RO, Activated Alumina and Deionizer – see below for more details.)

Water filters are available in all shapes and sizes. You can find jugs that filter water, machines that are installed under your sink or even small tablets that clean drinking water.

All these filters are designed to remove contaminants, but NOT all are effective in removing fluoride.

There are only a few types of filters that can remove fluoride from your drinking water.

1. Reverse Osmosis Filtration System

Reverse osmosis filtration system can remove up to 95% of the fluoride in your drinking water.

• RO (Reverse osmosis) systems push water through semi-permeable membranes in a filter and effectively remove impurities.
• However, they can be very wasteful Between 2 and 4 gallons of normal water is needed to produce 1 gallon of filtered water.
• The more impurities and fluoride the water contains, the less water is produced.
• Another advantage is that reverse osmosis adds healthy minerals back to your water. Thereby increasing the health benefits of the drinking water.

2. Activated Alumina

The activated alumina method is highly effective in eliminating not only fluoride, but also heavy metals and toxins.

This type of filtration system is commonly used for highly fluorinated water supplies.

Filtering out fluoride with activated alumina is easy to obtain, another method of water purification that removes fluoride.

With activated alumina, the water passes through a bed of aluminum granules. The granules absorb impurities and leave the water clean.

• On the other hand, your water must have a very specific pH (less than 8.5) for the activated alumina systems to work.
• The flow of water is also very slow, which means that it takes longer to filter 1 gallon of clean water than other systems.
• Filtration cartridges should be replaced regularly to keep systems running.

3. Deionization

Deionization is a process similar to distillation. Essentially, all the ionic particles are removed in the water.

This removes many contaminants and toxins, including fluoride.

Deionization treats ionic particles in water but the added benefit is that it also helps to balance the pH level of your water.

Most tap water is acidic in nature but a good deionizer water machine will produce water that is alkaline.

Water Filters That Remove Fluoride

If you want to remove all the fluoride from your drinking water, here are some of the best water filtration systems you should consider for your home:

Reverse Osmosis Water Filter.

This reverse osmosis filtration system is designed for use in all homes.

It produces several gallons per day, which is enough for the average household.

It will also produce enough drinking water for you and for your family.

In terms of fluoride free water, this machine eliminates up to 99% of fluoride, as well as impurities, heavy metals, pesticides and toxins.

The product is manufactured in the USA and it only uses FDA approved food grade materials.

It is easy to install under the sink, and is a great option for those who just want clean water.

Big Berkey (That Come With Fluoride Filters)

This is a dripping water filter, which means that much more time is needed to purify small amounts of water.

It can contain up to 2¼ gallons of water at a time but it filters up to 3.5 gallons per hour.

It is a good solution for those who want to remove most of the particles, impurities and fluoride from their drinking water.

However, if you have a large family, you may not be able to produce enough drinking water.

The Best Way To Get Fluoride Free Water?

Berkey and AquaTru are some of the best ways to treat fluoride.

They have a large capacity and can hold several gallons of water at a time.

Of course this depends on which size you select. Berkey comes in several shapes and sizes. This includes travel sizes.

The Big Berkey is suitable for a 2-4 person home.

You can remove more fluoride and impurities than ever before with the new special Berkey fluoride filters.

The best filters last longer and you only need to change them once every 12 months (depending on your level of use).

AquaTru is pretty powerful too.

Although it doesn’t remove as much fluoride as the Berkey but it is a powerful all round filter device.
