The FANNZ (Fluoride Action Network New Zealand), recently held a well-attended public forum, at Valhalla Cafe at Raumati Beach, to discuss the fluoridation of Kāpiti’s water supply.
Various professionals who attended, spoke on the negative effects caused by fluoride.
The professionals who cover from Ashburton to Northland, were all strongly against the fluoridation of the public water supply.
Daniela Ronberg, a member of FANNZ and a Raumati resident, expressed that her rights were being withheld, “If we continue to let them fluoridate our water where will it lead?” Daniela referred to the fluoridation of public water supply as “Mass Medication.”
Dr Brett is strongly against the fluoridisation of water, calling it “A poor health practice.” Dr Brett went onto refer to fluoride as “Toxic Waste.”
Dr Mike Godfrey said, “decay is not a deficiency of fluoride, in the same way Depression is not a deficiency of Prozak.” Dr Godfrey went on to say “The Human species has to have illness in order to be commercially viable.”
FANNZ were confident they had the support of at least five Counillors, and only needed one more to rid the fluoridisation of Kāpiti’s water supply.
Nobody showed up to the forum to present a counter argument.
