9 Things To Know About Fluoride In Drinking Water

Fluoride in water was provided to treat your teeth from decay, which provides an enamel layer which resists infection from various edible items, But the amount of taking of water or the dose is not measured or appropriate in water, every person drink different amount of water, so in few cases the intake of water is excess and  through the water higher amount of fluoride also enters the body which is harmful to the human body, the fluoride ions reacts with different ions to produce compounds which exacerbates the internal and  external organs .

1. Prevents Dental Decay

Fluoride in water prevents the decay of teeth,  the fluoride mixes with the hydroxyapatite avoiding the formation of cavities due to sugar or sweets and protects the enamel of the tooth in children and adults, this is the reason the tooth paste contains of fluoride to fight germs. It avoids the formation of cavities but does no reduce or cure the decaying , too much or excess drinking of fluoride water or increase of fluoride in water may not help in reducing the decay of tooth among children or adults it may rise up to some other health risk factors though fluoride being a chemical used for dental illness.

2. Cause Of Brain Disease

Excess of fluoride present in water may also effect the brain when taken for a longer period of time, one of the diseases is the Alzhemier disease, the loss of memory . It mixes with any other element to produce different chemical composition such as presence of aluminium with fluoride becomes toxic. Aluminium is a natural earth occurring metal which has no odor nor color so when it reacts with fluoride and water taken for a long time. Generally the diseases causes due to the older age where the memory is lost but the fluoride in water acts as neurotoxin.

3. Indigestion

The fluoride in water causes few stomach problems such as indigestion and rash problems on your skin the reason which sometimes cannot be easily detected , it may cause heart burn as the fluoride enters into the stomach react to form hydrofluoric acid which causes abnormalities in the digestive system causing heart burn and indigestion . It effects the skin to form reactions and develop rashes on the body so now the only way is to have fluoride free water those are possible through osmosis process the trouble can be eradicated or by having distilled water, they are free from all germs and harmful minerals and metals.

4. Infants Or Children Fluorosis

Flurosis may be defined as the changing of color of the teeth due to intake of fluoride water mixed with their formula milk, through the intake of this formula milk the fluoride may damage the brain of the infant which are not at all properly developed during their time of birth, it may cause a neurological disability. This is the reason it is always suggested to provide distilled or mineral water for the formula milk , that will avoid the risk factors of the diseases occurring through the fluoride.

5. Inactive Enzymes

It is shocking to know that the excess intake of  the fluoride through water can effect more than 40 enzymes and more approximately, that results in increasing the tumor growth in the body that may lead to cancer, it also damages the genes , the fluoride enters the body that involves with the healthy liver , enters the healthy cell effecting the whole healthy body. Fluoride is a highly toxic that may cause and lead to the deadly incurable diseases.

6. Hyperactivity Or Lethargy

Fluoride intake may cause hyperactivity or lethargy in your body, thus you feel lazy to do any sort of work at the same time it lowers your IQ level, it reduces your intelligence as it can exposes and initiates on the iodine defects and increases the deficiency, due to effect on kidney it causes problems in the urine of the effected people. The lower IQ level and leading to the deficiency of the iodine makes the person lethargic, so necessary step should be taken to provided to protect the children and adult from the fluoride drinking water which is required for the brain development.

7. Toxicity

Fluoride may lead to poisoning with contaminated drinking water that leads to body deformities,  making them physically handicap, it paralyzes  White blood cells, calcifies on the Pineal gland, which are examples of the toxicity of the fluoride. The toxic feature of the fluoride increase when the negative ion reacts with the positive ions such as calcium and magnesium as fluoride being small and having negativity have a strong attraction for the positive ions. Phosphate ion is a non metal ion which helps in storing of energy also gets hampered due to the toxic nature of fluoride.

8. Joints And Bones

The joints are effected which is weakens the joints of each and every part of the body that leads to the fractures of the joints, the skeletal fluorisis occurs in the body, where there is pain in the joints known as arthritis which occurs due to long intake of fluoride and very rare to get cured due to the formation of the salt that should be removed as early as possible because it may damage the calcium of the bone that can be a prior part of the matrix which becomes an unbearable painful disease that is hard or impossible to get cured after medical treatment.

9. Impaired Thyroid Function

Thyroid gland controls various activities of the body such as heart beats, calories totally burned . Deficiency in thyroid gland can goiter which is the visible swelling of neck known as hypothyroidism. Iodine worsen that is the main building element of T3 and T4 hormones, so enough amount of iodine should be taken to avoid the lack of iodine. T3 and T4 hormones are released by the thyroid stimulating hormone for the normal functioning of the body. Since it effects the iodine, so special care should be taken for the pregnant women or lactating women where the fluoride cannot harm by intake of higher amount of iodine.
