Introduction
The purpose of this presentation is to educate people about some of the potential health hazards we are exposed to on a daily basis. Many people will have little or no knowledge of these dangers, most of which can be avoided, or at least minimized. This presentation will also enlighten people as to why we face these dangers and what sort of treatment options are available for those who are already at risk. Several seemingly disparate topics will be presented which will actually tie together by the end of the presentation.


Heavy Metal Poisoning
Cadmium: Element 48
Cadmium is an increasingly common toxin. It increases the probability of such problems as Prostate Cancer and Hypertension. It decreases Testosterone levels and Myelin, the protective fatty layer around our nerves. It is also known to interfere with normal fetal and newborn brain development. Common food sources include Organ Meats (e.g. kidney, liver), Shellfish, and Drinking Water. Children are at increased vulnerability to cadmium poisoning. The Gastrointestinal Absorption of cadmium is 1 to 5% for Adults, and up to 55% for Children. Common Inhalational Sources include Factories, Landfill Incinerators and, of course, Cigarettes. Inhaled cadmium is all the more dangerous with the increased Lung Absorption rates of 30 to 90%.

Lead: Element 82
Lead is a famously potent neurotoxin. Most know that lead is bad for health even if they know nothing of other heavy metals. Lead poisoning is associated with Neurodegenerative Diseases and Violent Behavior. It interferes with fetal and newborn brain development, Neurotransmitters, Cellular Calcium levels, and Long Term Potentiation (or LTP, a fancy term referring to a person's ability to learn and remember solutions to problems based on previous experience). Lead causes Retardation, Cognitive Difficulties, and Impaired Visual-Motor Coordination. Common sources include Paint, Plaster, Cans, Pipes, Solder, Ceramic Glaze, Soil, Newsprint, and certain Imported Chinese Herbs (this problem has not been observed in American herbs, interestingly enough). Even though lead has been outlawed in most things, exposure is still fairly common. For example, even after lead pipes were outlawed, lead solder was still used on pipe joints for many years and can still be found in some places today. The stated "acceptable" lead blood level (as if there were any such thing) is at 10 µg/dl. The commonality of lead toxicity is underscored by the fact that an estimated 17% of U.S.A. children may have greater than 15 µg/dl!

Aluminum: Element 13
Most people are unaware that excessive aluminum exposure is harmful, probably because they assume that something which is so commonly found in our modern world couldn't be. The more we proceed through this presentation, the more fallacious this assumption will appear. Aluminum toxicity increases Free Iron levels in the body, Lipid Peroxidation (leading to cell and tissue damage), and Neurofibrillary Tangles (associated with numerous neurological disorders). It decreases Cell Membrane Function, Lipid levels, and Enzymatic Function (which is essential to all life processes). Aluminum is associated with Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's Disease, and Lou Gehrig's Disease. Common sources include Drinking Water, Acidic Foods, Processed Cheese, certain Herbs, Commercial Table Salt, Baking Soda, Cans, Foil, Cookware, Anti-Perspirant, and Tea (a number of tea plants naturally retain aluminum at higher rates). As this list would suggest, combinations of these will be more potent. For example, research has shown that adding lemon to your tea increases aluminum absorption in the body. The moral is: Never use lemon with your tea! Also, avoid using ordinary aluminum cookware or aluminum foil. Use Glass/Pyrex, Iron, or Anodized Aluminum Cookware Instead. The anodization process alters the molecular structure of the metal to bind the molecules tightly. Anodized aluminum cookware is also the choice of many professional chefs because of it versatility, but it is rather expensive. Unbleached parchment paper is a fine substitute for aluminum foil.

Mercury: Element 80
Perhaps the most famous neurotoxin in history, mercury is the third most toxic element on the periodic table. Mercury poisoning increases Free Radical Production and Lipid Peroxidation. It decreases Enzymatic Function, Neurotubules, and Neurotransmitters. It also has a way of storing itself in the body so its effects will manifest gradually over a period of time, often after a delay of many years. Despite what some try to claim, there is no such thing as a "safe" level of mercury poisoning. Even the most minute amounts (down to the nanomolar scale) have been shown to be damaging. It binds to Nucleic Acids and Cell Membranes, and can emerge at any time to wreak havoc in the body. It is associated with numerous Neurodegenerative Diseases, Cancer, Autism, and ADD/ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). Common sources include "Silver" Dental Amalgams, Vaccines, Seafood, Allopathic Medicines, Beauty Creams, Mirrors, and Coal Burning. Because of the severe environmental pollution which is continually mounting, it is advisable to get farm-raised seafood only unless you happen to know of a place which sells seafood from pollution-free areas (and are willing to pay a premium for it). The following graph illustrates the average relative exposure sources to mercury. As you can see, dental amalgams and vaccines dominate. We will take a closer look at these sources by briefly examining the history of mercury.

The dangers of mercury poisoning have been known since ancient times. Pliny the Elder wrote about the suffering of the mercury miners in the Iberian Peninsula, who had numerous physiological and psychological disorders. In the 1600's to the 1800's, it was a long-held trade secret that felt hats were manufactured using mercury. Many hat makers developed severe neurological and psychological problems as a result of their work exposure to mercury. Few people know that the expression, "Mad As A Hatter," originated from this phenomenon. In the 1800's, "Silver" Dental Amalgams began to be used by the dental profession. The so-called silver is actually an amalgam containing 45 to 52% mercury! Naturally, the mercury exposure from these amalgams was associated with an array of problems. Indeed, many cases of what were then diagnosed as "neurosyphilis" were in fact cases of acute mercury poisoning from amalgams. The dental profession knew this to be the case, which is why the dental association in the U.S.A. today is completely different from the original. The original dental association was the American Society of Dental Surgeons (ASDS). The ASDS prohibited the use of amalgam fillings, and barred membership to any who would use them. As is usually the case, the almighty dollar won. Dentists realized there was so much money to be made in plugging teeth, they relinquished their ASDS membership rather than lose such a lucrative business. So many dentists left the ASDS that it collapsed by 1850. A new dental association emerged from the ashes, composed of those dentists who valued money over safety. It was the American Dental Association (ADA), which formed in 1859 and is still with us today. Interestingly enough, the maximum "safe" non-air mercury dose has been stated to be 10 µg. The average amount of mercury per amalgam filling is 750,000 µg! Furthermore, every time you go to the dentist to have your teeth cleaned, research has shown that mercury vapor is emitted from the amalgam fillings at a rate of 6 to 150 µg/M3. With this in mind, it is easy to understand why dentists have one of the highest suicide rates of any profession. They spend their days snorting mercury fumes which slowly damage their brains. Furthermore, mercury has been demonstrated repeatedly to have the property of traversing and saturating nerves. Autopsies done on Alzheimer's victims with amalgams have shown that such saturation takes place straight from the amalgams to the areas of the brain where damage is associated with Alzheimer's. As the following picture illustrates, the olfactory and trigeminal nerves are the paths of destruction.

Furthermore, research has shown that the major source of mercury transmitted through breast milk is from amalgams. Hence, mothers with mercury amalgams who breastfeed their babies will pass mercury to them. Despite all of these facts, the ADA claims Amalgams are harmless! They try to justify everything by saying that mercury does not separate when in amalgam form. This is a bald-faced lie! It has been demonstrated repeatedly that mercury enters the mouth every time one chews with amalgams, and it actually saturates the oral cavity over time, not to mention that it enters the digestive tract. In order to perpetuate the big lie, any dissenting dentists who actually follow the facts and their consciences are intimidated and eventually thrown out of the ADA if they say or do anything about the harmful effects of amalgams. Some states even prohibit dentists from removing the amalgams by law! Naturally, having these amalgams in your head is like having a slowly exploding time bomb. If you do anything with them, however, it becomes a fast explosion, creating a 3 to 4-fold increase in the levels of mercury in your blood stream for up to two to three months after the procedure. Amalgams should be removed only by one who is properly trained to safely remove them. The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology has established a specific protocol, and they should be contacted for a qualified person. Some dentists use nickel instead of mercury in the amalgam. Don't let this fool you into thinking it is safe, however. Like most heavy metals, Nickel has been associated with different problems, including cancer and birth defects. Some dentists try to get around this by saying, "That's why I use stainless steel instead of nickel." As anyone with a basic knowledge of chemistry knows, stainless steel is an amalgam which includes iron, chromium and nickel. Hence, stainless steel fillings are nickel fillings. This gives you an idea of the competence of the dental profession concerning chemistry and medicine. Try not to be too hard on your dentist, though. They have been lied to by the elite in the ADA like everyone else has.
Let us look at the other major route by which the professional world poisons people with mercury: vaccination. There is a vaccine adjuvant (a preservative) called Thimerosal which is actually 49% ethylmercury, an organic form of mercury. A company called Eli Lilly has produced mercury-containing medical products for over a century. A series of disastrous Thimerosal studies by Eli Lily revealed just how dangerous Thimerosal (and therefore mercury poisoning) really is. In 1929, one Thimerosal study killed all of the human participants! In another study conducted on animals six years later, the researcher reported to Eli Lilly that there was such an array of adverse reactions that Thimerosal was, "Unsatisfactory as a preservative for serum intended for use on dogs"! As those who have seen my vaccination presentation will know, the medical and pharmaceutical industries had long since established by this time that deliberately poisoning live populations is a very lucrative business. Therefore, such glowing qualifications demanded that Thimerosal be included in human vaccines without hesitation. Later that same year, this is precisely what happened as Eli Lilly began to manufacture and sell Thimerosal as a vaccine preservative, even though it is both unreliable as a preservative and more toxic than lead. The rest, as they say, is history. A few years later, the world's first case of autism appeared in the U.S.A. There are literally decades worth of modern scientific research proving the dangers of Thimerosal, yet the deliberate poisoning and damaging of millions of children continues to this day. The only way to publicly justify the whole thing is for the manufacturers and government officials to resort to cover-ups using deliberate statistical and scientific fraud and the most transparently vacuous lies.

Fluoride Poisoning
Fluorine: Element 9
Fluorine sits atop the Halogen Family of the Periodic Table, making it one of the most reactive and corrosive elements. A fluoride is a general term for any compound which contains fluorine. Fluorides are known to increase Cancer, Fluorosis, Hypothyroidism, Osteoporosis, Genetic Damage, Abnormal Brain Development, Male Sterility, Lead absorption in Drinking Water, Acidosis, Hypocalcemia, Nephrotoxicity (kidney toxicity), and Cytotoxicity (cellular toxicity). They decrease DNA-repair-enzymatic Function (thereby inhibiting one's ability to repair genetic damage, not to mention the efficacy of homeopathic treatment), Intelligence, CoEnzyme Q10, Brain Phospholipids, and Neurons in the Hippocampus (the part of the brain which deals with more primitive emotions such as anger). Fluorides are associated with neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease. Common sources of fluorides include Drinking Water, fruit juices from concentrate (which are reconsituted with tap water), mouthwash, toothpaste, Dental Fluoride Treatments, tea, shrimp and tuna, infant cereals and water, grape juice (especially from California grapes), and produce sprayed with fluoride-based pesticides. Let us take a closer look at the research into the health effects of fluorides.
Fluoride Research
It has been established that fluorides cause precancerous mouth lesions with a 2% incidence at 11 ppm, and a 12% incidence at 45 ppm. This should concern you considering that dental fluoride treatments contain 15,000 ppm of fluoride! The dangers of fluorides are nothing new, however. Thanks to research obtained by the good old Freedom of Information Act, we now know that Proctor & Gamble knew that fluoride ingestion leads to bone cancer even as they were adding it to Crest toothpaste! Proctor & Gamble research also found that fluoride causes genetic damage at 1 ppm. Thyroid T3 and T4 hormone levels were lowered significantly in mice at 1 ppm. This should also be of concern considering that humans are more vulnerable to fluoride poisoning than mice! Fluorine readily combines with Aluminum to form a potent neurotoxin in what is known as the Aluminum Fluoride Complex. This is what gives fluorides their neurotoxic properties. Along this same vein, Chinese studies confirm that fluoridated water lowers intelligence (IQ). Certain areas of China have naturally high fluoride levels, giving a perfect opportunity for study. In a village with levels at 4.12 ppm, the median IQ was statistically significantly lower compared to another village with 0.91 ppm. Dental fluorosis was much higher, at 86% in the high fluoride village versus 14% in the low fluoride village. Another Chinese study found a median ten point drop in IQ in a moderately severe fluorosis area. Research has also established that fluorides contribute to Alzheimer's Disease at just 0.5 ppm. Despite all of this, the already bogus EPA "safe" daily fluoride exposure was increased from 1 to 4 ppm. All of this should be even more alarming considering that the average daily fluoride consumption in the U.S.A. is 8 ppm! Furthermore, the effects of fluoride poisoning are cumulative, with our bodies having a 50% fluoride retention rate. Needless to say, it is advisable to avoid all fluoridated products.
A Brief History of Fluoridation

If all of this damaging information about fluorides is know, then the obvious question to ask is why they are being added to everything nowadays. Let us begin to examine the issue by looking up the definition of Sodium Fluoride. "Sodium Fluoride - a colorless, crystalline, water-soluble, poisonous solid, NaF, used chiefly in the fluoridation of water, as an insecticide, and as a rodenticide." (Source: Webster's Unabridged Dictionary). Already, this is not making too much sense. Until fluorides started to be dumped into the public water supply, there were very few uses for them. There were three primary uses for Sodium Fluoride: by cattlemen to partially sterilize bulls to make them more tractable, by the KGB to retard their prisoners to facilitate brainwashing, and by the aluminum industry as flux in aluminum processing. This last use made fluoride compounds a hazardous byproduct of the aluminum industry. The same is true of the Phosphate Fertilizer industry. Up until the water fluoridation era, these industries would have to spend millions of dollars on the safe disposal of these toxic fluoride compounds. Selling fluorides as a cavity preventer allowed them to make a profit from them instead! Other such byproducts included in fluoridation are Stannous Fluoride, Sodium Hexafluorosilicate, Hexafluorosilicic Acid. One of the points raised by fluoride proponents is that fluoride is a natural constituent of the body, which help prevent tooth decay. However, there is no such thing as a fluoride deficiency disease, let alone proof that additional fluoride in the body stops tooth decay. Furthermore, it is calcium fluoride that is a constituent of the body. Notice how calcium fluoride is nowhere to be found on the fluoridation list. Trying to equate calcium fluoride with any of these other fluoride compounds is about as meaningful as trying to equate Calcium Carbonate (Lime) with Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda). Let's take a closer look at what motivated this fuzzy logic behind fluoridation. As is so often the case, the history behind something is more telling than the scientific research. The point-by-point parallels between the rise of fluoridation and the rise of mass vaccination are striking, to say the least.
Shortly after the turn of the twentieth century, a number of cases with children having mottled teeth were observed. These cases were determined to be caused by naturally occurring fluoride in the local water supply. This condition was termed "Dental Fluorosis." This finding motivated the health department and the dental society to call for fluorides to be removed from the water. In 1930, Dr. Gerald Cox intervened and suggested, with no proof whatsoever, that small amounts of fluoride could prevent not only fluorosis, but also tooth decay. Cox also happened to be tied to the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa). Around this time, Andrew Mellon, the founder of Alcoa, also became the U.S. Treasury Secretary. Curiously enough, the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) was controlled by Treasury Secretary during this period. As more people began to examine the possibility of fluoridation, more people objected. In September 18, 1943, the American Medical Association (AMA) cautioned against fluoridation, citing the fact that it is a protoplasmic poison, and that there were environmental accumulation dangers. On October 1, 1944, an article in the Journal of the American Dental Association (ADA) noted, "the potential for harm outweighed those for good." The article noted as little as 1.2 to 3.0 ppm associated with "developmental disturbances in bones as osteosclerosis, spondylsosis and osteoporosis, as well as goiter." Despite these cautionary warnings, Alcoa's influence allowed the fluoridation drive to continue with religious zeal. In 1944, Alcoa hired attorney Oscar Ewing for $750,000 per year, despite the fact that Alcoa was facing no major litigation at the time. A few months later, Ewing left Alcoa to become Federal Security Administrator, putting him in charge of USPHS under Treasury Secretary Mellon! Ewing promptly hired Edward Bernays, "the original spin doctor" and founder of the Public Relations (PR) industry. Thus, the group of people Alcoa needed to push its fluoridation agenda was complete.

Bernays
A vicious PR campaign immediately ensued. Fluoridation detractors were slandered systematically by Bernays. Suddenly, the AMA and ADA reversed their positions without a single study confirming fluoridation's safety or efficacy! That's right, the same organization that was literally founded on the principle that mercury poisoning is harmless now started telling people that fluoride is healthy! As the results of the initial population studies emerged, it became obvious that the data did not conform to the fluoridation hypothesis. Any data from unfluoridated cities which fared better in terms of tooth decay than their fluoridated counterparts were deliberately excluded from publication. As was the case with vaccination, allopathic science committed statistical fraud to try to credit itself with an accomplishment for which it could not possibly be responsible. Once again, the usual improvements in health standards and nutrition were the real reason for the improvements in tooth decay. In fact, all studies supporting fluoridation have been fraudulent or otherwise deliberately rigged to favor fluoridation. These original studies were the most transparent, and are still cited by subsequent studies as "proof" of fluoridation. However, anyone who wishes today to verify the original studies are out of luck because they have conveniently "disappeared" from the National Archives. Every house of cards has a bottom deck, and that deck is as obvious with fluoridation as it is with vaccination. In order to get a global view of the results of fluoridation, a look at the World Health Organization's (WHO) statistics comparing different countries is helpful. The following graph shows the Decayed, Missing, or Filled Teeth Index (DMFT) versus year for several countries. Most of the countries shown are mostly or completely unfluoridated, yet all show improvement in the DMFT. Which country's graph has the lowest slope, and therefore the slowest progress? Why, the U.S.A. does, where roughly two-thirds of the public water supply is now fluoridated. More of the ADA's motivation becomes clear with this. The tendencies toward hypocalcemia in fluoridated populations actually increases the DMFT, thereby giving dentists more business. Again, the parallel to allopathic medicine's support of vaccination, which worsens people's health, is striking.

IMG 2
Actual WHO Data
To maintain the charade, the ADA used the same tactics against fluoridation detractors that they used against mercury amalgam detractors, up to and including dismissal from the ADA. John Small of the USPHS used his position to harass any who publicly criticized fluoridation. Dr. Yiamouyiannis was forced to resign his position as editor of Chemical Abstracts Service, the world's largest chemical information center, because he refused to acquiesce to the corporate pressure to stop criticizing fluoridation. He did not allow this setback to deter him, however. In 1978, Yiamouyiannis convinced a Pennsylvania court to ban fluoridation locally. A similar case was won in Illinois. A number of telling facts about fluoridation justified these legal decisions. For example, the number of cancer cases in fluoridated areas increases ten percent, accounting for roughly 10,000 additional cases per year. In addition, there are 40,000,000 arthritis cases, 8,000,000 cases of childhood dental deformity (yet another source of money for dentists, perhaps?), and 2,000,000 allergic reactions due to fluoridation. Afraid it was losing its pet project, the ADA responded with the "White Paper on Fluoridation." This bizarre Bernaysian-style document details guidelines on how to deal with fluoridation critics, including profiling their motives. They also made sure any public debates concerning safety were deferred to the USPHS, which would hide the damaging information on fluoridation from the public. They also had to get around the recently passed Safe Drinking Water Act, which made it illegal for the government to endorse adding compounds to the public water supply. They did so through the use of "block grants," which were financial incentives for implementing fluoridation. If fluoridation is so safe and effective, why must bribes be handed out to implement it, and why must relevant research on it be suppressed from public knowledge? Not content with these measures, the fluoridation supporters had to expand the scope of fluoridation to include everything from mouthwash to baby water. The ADA now wants fluoride in virtually everything! All the while, the total amount of daily fluoride exposure continues to mount. The insanity of this is emphasized by the following fact. The largest settlement awarded in U.S. legal history was due to acute fluoride poisoning. A small boy swallowed the cup of fluoride treatment he received at the dentist's office, and he suffered a fatal heart attack. The following image illustrates how this happens. The neurotoxic properties of fluoride (particularly aluminum fluoride) caused acute damage to the cardiac electrical system of the heart, which raced out of control until he died.

IMG 3

Given how dangerous fluoridation is, and given that the people who are supposed to be aware of the facts are hiding them, the obvious question people ask is, "Are the proponents of fluoridation afraid?" The answer is a resounding YES! The following examples should illustrate this. Sacramento Mayor Golding uses a reverse osmosis filter ever since she voted to fluoridate the city's water. In fact, if you go around Sacramento City Hall, you will see officials who have used their influence (and taxpayer's dollars) to have reverse osmosis systems installed in their offices. It's touching to see how officials are concerned with the health of their constituents, isn't it? In 1990, EPA senior toxicologist Dr. William Marcus was fired for pointing out fraudulent EPA research supporting fluoridation. In a rare example of bureaucratic integrity, Marcus decided to sue his former employers. During the trial, the EPA shredded evidence and intimidated the employees who supported him. Miraculously, Marcus won! Not only did he get his old job back, but he was also awarded $50,000 in damages. The EPA saga doesn't end there, however. In November of 1991, EPA Union Vice-President Dr. Bob Carton, on behalf of all 1200 EPA headquarters employees, presented evidence of fraud in the EPA's fluoride drinking water standard to the Drinking Water Subcommittee. Carton received no response, but the EPA headquarters now has fluoride-free water! To date, no one has lifted a finger to stop the fluoridation of the public water supply. Such hypocrisy and corruption, which permeates our government, speaks volumes about the lunacy of fluoridation. Most other countries have governments which are progressive enough to acknowledge the existence of the Nuremburg Code, and would never medicate whole populations without informed consent or evidence of safety and efficacy, yet that is precisely what happens here in America. Fluoridation is a flagrant violation of ethics and of both domestic and international law, yet it is just one example of what is allowed to happen to us.
