Thanks for the information. I realize this forum can not explain decades of research, especially to those with an agenda to sell fear. Fear is a powerful motivator that causes reasonable people to commit unreasonable acts. Somewhere in the Good Book we are reminded that the spirit of fear is not of the Lord. I have seen intelligent people die rather than accept medical treatment because some greedy person wrote a negative book about US medicine. I have no dog in this fight with other posters , only those that use the spirit of fear to sell their books. Once again, thank you.

Too true. One of my husband's professors is/has been very active in anti-quackery, anti-healthfraud and got us interested as well. Hawaii goes through the fluoride debate every few years and every time it's the fear factor that wins it for junk science promoters. Oh well - job security so we can stay here when he retires from the Army in a year. Caries is a huge problem here.
