The Dangers of Fluoride

I love love love the internet and think it is an amazing resource for information. I feel that every individual should have the opportunity to be informed and educated on the topics that interest them most and the internet is perfect for this! Of course you know that at M'lis we are always interested in new ways to help keep our bodies healthy and how to best avoid those things that can contribute to unnecessary disease or suffering. One of my most recent topics of interest is the debate over fluoride and how becoming overexposed can damage our health.

I speak with many people who are suffering with thyroid problems everyday. We know that our thyroid needs iodine to function properly and when we encounter a deficiency of iodine in our diet we can begin to experience increasingly more common thyroid disorders. Interestingly enough, our thyroid searches for this iodine in our body, when there is none to be found it will absorb fluoride and chlorine which most people are exposed to on a regular basis. I enjoyed this short video clip and think that it gave a good visual on what can happen to our bodies including our hormones when we get exposed to these toxins. I hope you enjoy this video, and as always please keep in mind that the M'lis company does not necessarily endorse or agree with everything in this clip.
