Avoiding fluoride reduces anemia, pre-term and low-weight babies

"Anemic pregnant women living in India, whose urine contained 1 mg/L fluoride or more, were separated into two groups. The experimental group avoided fluoride in water, food and other sources ...

Results reveal that anemia was reduced and pre-term and low-birth-weight babies were considerably fewer in the fluoride-avoidance group."

• In the US, researchers from the State University of New York also reported that premature births were more common in communities with fluoridated drinking water than those with non-fluoridated water.
• High fluoride levels seem to damage the gastrointestinal mucosa - leading to impaired nutrient absorption and related problems:
• Anemia (decreased red blood cells) - in pregnancy, this can result in both maternal and infant mortality; anemia persists even with the currently advised maternal iron and folic acid supplementation;
• Reduced blood folic acid activity
• Inhibition of vitamin B12 production
• Non-absorption of nutrients for hemoglobin synthesis
