According to EPA data, fluoridated water accounts for the majority of #fluoride intake for all age groups, with the vast majority of the U.S. population getting more than half of their fluoride exposure from drinking water alone.
In an attempt to avoid accountability from fluoride harm, fluoridation advocates have pointed their finger at other sources of fluoride. They are either unaware of easily accessible EPA data or they are lying when they claim that other sources of fluoride, not water fluoridation, are responsible for fluoride over-exposures in the U.S.
In this video, NTP's Kyla Taylor explains how EPA data show fluoridated water accounts for the majority of #fluoride exposure, and therefore the majority of fluoride harm, for all U.S. age groups.
Americans are being overdosed on fluoride and there’s only one obvious way to address it - we have to stop adding it to our drinking water.

![Dryden, Ontario Fluoride Presentations 2008
Prior to a public referendum vote on April 14th, 2008, citizens of Dryden, Ontario heard presentations from both proponents and opponents of fluoridation. On April 1st, Dr. Peter Cooney, Canadas Chief Dental Officer gave his presentation. The next day, Dr. Paul Connett of the Fluoride Action Network gave his presentation and response to Dr. Cooney. Both presentations are included here for comparison.
The result of the referendum is summed up in the announcement below:
Dryden voters soundly reject fluoridation
FAN Bulletin 953: A HUGE victory in Dryden, Ontario

FLUORIDE ACTION NETWORK
FAN Bulletin 953:
April 15, 2008
Yesterday the citizens of Dryden delivered a huge rejection to the notion of restarting fluoridation in their town. A massive majority said NO - 1902 versus 292. Thats 87% to 13%.
This is an embarrassing defeat for Canadas chief dental officer Dr. Peter Cooney who spoke in Dryden on April 1 and did his best to persuade the citizens that fluoridation was safe and effective (see FAN bulletin #950, 4/7/08).
I spoke with one of the leaders of the citizens campaign last night after the victory was declared - local pharmacist Rob Button and he said that they wanted to share what they have learned in this campaign with other communities in Ontario and Canada. He is looking forward to doing this at the FAN 3 conference in Toronto in August. Are the dominos beginning to fall - the Niagara region in 2007; Quebec City on April 1, 2008 and now Dryden on April 14? How many more before August?
Congratulations to all the citizens of Dryden who made this wonderful victory possible.
Paul Connett
Possibly the most amazing statement made by Dr. Cooney in his presentation was the following:
Youve had fluoride in the water here for over 40 years. Youre going to hear people saying it causes horrific health effects - it doesnt. I only came today [ to speak in Dryden, Ontario ], but when I walked down the center of Dryden, I didnt see anyone growing horns, and you guys have been drinking fluoridated water for 40 years. So, please dont feel that its going to cause you huge health problems - cause it isnt. -Dr. Peter Cooney-
