Side by side test finally settled the fluoride debate for me
Got a water test kit off Amazon for $25 and tested my tap water against the bottled stuff I've been drinking. The fluoride numbers were almost identical, which honestly surprised me. My friend kept saying the city adds extra chemicals but the lab report showed 0.7 ppm in both. I even tested the well water at my dad's place outside Austin and it was higher naturally. Has anyone else actually run the tests themselves or are we all just trusting the internet?
Tested my own water a few years back and got the same result, so I don't buy the whole "they're pumping extra fluoride in" thing. The dose is what matters anyway, and 0.7 ppm has been the standard for decades without anyone dropping dead.
