Ingesting fluoride – a toxic fertilizer-industry byproduct – in drinking water for the sake of preventing tooth decay is an outdated, dangerous practice that is damaging human health and the environment.

The research on this is very clear, and although the US government has been slow to acknowledge it, other nations are ending this tragic “public health” measure.

Quite simply, the truth is out about fluoride, and the more people become informed, the less tolerance they have for this toxic drug-like substance to remain in their drinking water.

This is precisely the case in Europe, where 98 percent of countries have rejected water fluoridation either by removing it from their water supplies or never adding it to begin with.

Except for Ireland. Ireland is the only country in Europe that has mandatory fluoridation – a practice that hopefully won’t be long for this world, thanks to the efforts of nutritionist Aisling FitzGibbon, better known as “The Girl Against Fluoride.”

The Girl Against Fluoride Takes on Ireland’s High Court

FitzGibbon is in the process of taking a High Court legal action against the Irish government in an effort to end the country’s mandatory water fluoridation. The campaign was started after her own recovery from depression, which she attributes to drinking fluoride-free water.

Court case proceedings began in January 2014, with the ultimate goal of overthrowing a Supreme Court ruling in 1963 that mandated water fluoridation in Ireland. As FitzGibbon said, they are “fighting for our democratic right to clean water.”1

Last year, three town councils in Ireland said they backed an end to water fluoridation but so far the Irish Expert Body on Fluorides and Health has rejected anti-fluoridation arguments. In
Bantry, Ireland, for instance, town councilors voted
unanimously for an immediate end to fluoridation throughout Ireland.

Now, in an open letter to Irish Water, FitzGibbon has stated the agency and its board members will be held accountable for personal injury caused by the consumption of excess fluoride in drinking water.
