Why do they put aspartame and bisphenol a in our food and fluoride in our water? do our bodies need these things?

Fluoride: I would agree with your food additives questions. However, I believe that the benefits to the community outweigh any risks. The benefits of water fluoridation on the oral health has been documented on several scientific studies. The meager cost to fluoridate is worth the taxes spent.
