...facts are clear from studies of inhabitants of such places as Colorado Springs who were conceived and lived all their lives there. These people have no higher incidence of disease of the heart, arteries, kidneys, liver or lungs than people who have lived the same sort of life in, say, Boulder, Colo., which lacks natural fluoridation.

(Some of these towns are now "defluoridating" down to the optimum 1 p.p.m.) Oldtimers...

No one is quite sure about the ultimate damage...

An autopsy showed that she had an enlarged right heart, two holes in the walls dividing the chambers of the heart, and a long catalogue of abnormalities involving the kidneys, lungs, liver, pancreas, digestive tract and genitalia. What had caused her horrible deformation...
