This is a marketing tool for Dr. Mercola's toothpaste, but it is a 14 min video that is SO worth your time. I learned so much about the fluoride industry. He interviews a dentist who has practiced for 30 years and he has lots of good information. He even made a claim about how fluoride potentially damages sperm and eggs and may be resulting in damaged DNA that may even be contributing to such diagnoses as Down Syndrome.

FOOD DYES
I wish I could get my hands on someone who works for the FDA...wait until you read the second article here. There is a picture of NutraGrain bars comparing ingredients between the US and Europe. I won't spoil the picture, but it just angers me!!
