NO! Fluoride's TOXIC: Fluoride is toxic. There is no good reason it is added to many water supplies. It is more toxic than lead, lowers iq & increases risk of heart disease, fractures, bone cancer etc. And adding it to water does not even reduce risk of tooth decay! see http://articles.Mercola.Com/sites/articles/archive/2012/05/21/fluoride-health-hazards.Aspx & http://www.Naturalchoice.Net/articles/flouride.Htm.

Safe: Fluoridation is adding Fluoride to water is normal , epa mandate drinking water must have 0.7ppm of it to prevent dental caries or cavities , as steam distilled has no Fluoride is added to the requirement, is safe to use in the formula. Speak to the baby's pediatrician.

Yes, it is safe: Small amounts of Fluoride are both safe and help protect the erupted teeth from tooth decay. Like vitamin c, iron, oxygen, and other things to much is not good. To much Fluoride over an extended time can cause dental fluorosis of permanent teeth and in extreme cases skeletal fluorosis. This will not happen from drinking water that is optimally fluoridated.
