Theos-Talk Archives (October 2005 Message tt00155)

Thanks! A pleasant message for a change. Not attacking any body. I hope you 
last here.

When I was a small boy in the first grade, the teachers taught us to use 1/2 
salt, and 1/2 baking soda to make tooth paste. The first commercial 
prepration was powder that came in a can. Flouride paste benefits only 
growing teeth, but has a very bad effect on adults, contributing to 
altheimers disease, and the other diseases of the old.

I am lucky in that way, I have had all plastic teeth since 1946, and have 
avoided most of the exposure to flouride.
