UK Against Fluoridation

More on Grand Ledge

In Grand Ledge the water issue is fluoride.
Voters will decide in November whether or not they want this added to their water system. Most municipal water systems in Michigan provide fluoridated water.
But the fluoridation issue still simmers, with the same passions that made it a national issue decades ago. Detractors warn that fluoride weakens bones, promotes tooth decay and even causes cancer. They support these beliefs with studies and reports.
Still, the evidence that fluoride helps prevent cavities seems far more compelling and the treatment is endorsed by the American Dental Association, the American Medical Association, the World Health Organization and other such groups.

The Governement funded York Review didn't endorse fluoridation.
