Hi Marilyn;

I scroogled "fluoridation hazard" and got a bunch of hits, confirming my  
memory. There doesn't seem to be any credible report of a fluoride  
deficiency that would justify adding the stuff to drinking water or  
toothpaste.
Tea may be a good source of bio-available fluoride for those deficient,  
but how to know?
