"Fluoride: Drinking Ourselves to Death?" is a book by Barry Groves, published in 1997. In this book, Groves explores the controversial topic of water fluoridation and its potential health effects.
Groves argues against the widespread addition of fluoride to public water supplies, contending that fluoride may have detrimental effects on human health when ingested in large quantities. He questions the effectiveness of water fluoridation in preventing tooth decay and raises concerns about the safety of fluoride consumption, linking it to various health problems, including dental fluorosis, skeletal fluorosis, thyroid dysfunction, and cognitive impairment.
In "Fluoride: Drinking Ourselves to Death?," Groves presents evidence from scientific studies and historical data to support his arguments against water fluoridation. He challenges the prevailing belief in the benefits of fluoride and calls for greater scrutiny of its use in public health policy.
Groves' book sparked debate and controversy within the scientific and public health communities, with proponents of water fluoridation arguing that it is a safe and effective way to improve dental health, especially among disadvantaged populations. However, Groves' work continues to be cited by critics of water fluoridation who advocate for more cautious approaches to fluoride exposure.
Overall, "Fluoride: Drinking Ourselves to Death?" is a thought-provoking exploration of a complex and contentious issue, shedding light on the potential risks and uncertainties surrounding water fluoridation and its impact on public health.
