American Dental Association Changes Stance, Adopts Natural Solutions Foundation Position: No Fluoride for Babies The Natural Solutions Foundation's strongly anti-fluoride position for infants and children is now echoed by the American Dental Association (ADA) which says that children under 1 year should not be exposed to fluoride. Although the US supported fluoride in infant formula during the recent Codex meeting in Chiang Mai, Thailand which dealt with infant formula and other special purpose foods, using data provided by the Natural Solutions Foundation, South Africa pushed the restriction on fluoride in healthy infants' formula through, despite strong US objection. Long a proponent of fluoridation of children's teeth, the ADA joins the Natural Solutions Foundation in pointing out the dangers of the now-debunked toxin in infant's bodies. CCNFSDU will bring its new recommendation prohibiting the addition of fluoride in formula for normal infants to the Codex Alimentarius Commission for approval in July, 2007 although, thanks to US pressure, the toxic metal is still permitted by Codex in the formula of sick children. - 2006-11-15
