Fluoride Linked to Bone Cancer

Blood fluoride levels were significantly higher in patients with osteosarcoma than in control groups, according to research published in Biological Trace Element Research (April 2009). Osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer, occurs mostly in children and young adults. Sandhu and colleagues measured serum fluoride levels in three equal groups of age-matched and sex-matched patients. “Mean serum fluoride concentration was found to be significantly higher in patients with osteosarcoma as compared to the other two groups,” write Sandhu’s team. Water fluoridation is the controlled addition of fluoride to a public water supply to reduce tooth decay. Full Story : Pitchengine.com….
