Art Of Verity So are smog, air pollution, water pollution, and many plants, herbs, and minerals, we use in our consumer products. What's your point? We do so many deadly cancer-causing, and other health-harming things every day, and in small doses, these don't kill us for a long time. This is a one-year treatment in a low dose. If anything is going to kill us it won't be fluoride.
