\nWhat They Don\u2019t Want You to Know About Arsenic in Your Water\n<\/h1>

<\/p>

Arsenic, the legendary cancer-causing poison, is among the toxins in your fluoridated drinking water. Arsenic is naturally occurring in many soils and waters all over the world. It often appears in private wells. (This is one of the many reasons to test well water). However, if you drink fluoridated water, you are drinking arsenic as well as fluoride, as the hydrofluorosilicic acid that is dumped into your water by the water department contains Arsenic.<\/p>

According to the World Health Organization, arsenic causes cancer of the skin, lungs, bladder and kidney, as well as skin pigmentation changes and skin thickening.<\/p>

The most frightening aspect of the arsenic in the hydrofluorosilicic acid that is used to fluoridate our drinking water is that when it is present with fluoride, it causes lower IQ (up to 12-15 points lower than non-fluoridated children).<\/p>

Besides lower IQ, researchers in studies performed in China, Mexico and Bangladesh found that children who drank water high in fluoride and arsenic had cognitive (logical thinking) deficits, delayed alternation tasks (the ability to choose between one thing and another) and spatial task deficits (how objects are related to one another). They also witnessed hyperactive tendencies, due to nervous system damage from fluoride.<\/p>

So if your child is struggling in school and can\u2019t seem to figure problems out, figure out what to do, or figure out the relationships between objects, you might want to change your water.<\/p>
