Fluoride Promotes Oxidation in the Body.
There are natural ways to detoxify your body from this dangerous substance and support your immune system through supplementing with antioxidants.
This Mineral Can Help Detox.
Selenium is known to exist in glutathione, one of the body’s most powerful antioxidants. Supplementation with this mineral has even had positive effects on people with coronary artery disease.[4]
It is found in trace amounts in many foods so a balanced diet may give you enough. Fish, meat, whole grains, seeds, and nuts all contain selenium.
Too much selenium is counter-productive; don’t supplement without professional guidance and limit daily intake to under 200 micrograms. Magnesium has been shown to effectively absorb fluoride[5] so make sure you get enough of it; spinach, broccoli, and peas are great sources.
This Spice Protects Your Brain From Fluoride Poisoning.
Turmeric is an herb that has also been shown to decrease inflammation and support antioxidant activity.[6]
Curcumin is the active component in turmeric that curbs degenerative effects. Good not only for fluoride detoxification, there are indications for arthritis, cancer, colitis, and heart disease.[7]
Fluoride exists in foods you may not consider; any processed food that contains water most likely includes its constituent fluoride. Avoid soft drinks especially, as they are mostly water (and sugar, another–albeit different–health hazard).
Filtering water from your tap using conventional home filters like Brita won’t remove the fluoride; water purified via reverse osmosis does.
Something as basic as the water you drink should be toxin-free. Any incidental indications of its influence on the development of dental cavities aside (this remains a controversial issue and is not definitive), they are far over-shadowed by the scientific evidence of fluoride’s dangerous effects.
