UK Against Fluoridation

Saturday, April 16, 2011

UK - Daily Echo Letter

Will fluoride counter risk of starter cups?
HEALTH and safety warnings jump out at us from the most unlikely places. Take an 'Essentials First Cup'.
This is a spouted drinking cup sold as suitable for babies and young children.
The packaging contains the warning 'continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay. Tooth decay in young children can occur even when non-sweetened fluids are used'. It is a good thing this company recognises this health hazard
regarding its product. Are there similar warnings on other children's products relating to tooth decay?
Tooth decay in young children was the emotive reason given by our PCT and SHA, so I fail to understand how fluoridation of our water supply will protect these very young children from tooth decay while they continue to suck on their drinking cups.
