Why don't Europeans fluoridate?
- kurthr 8y agoBecause they have working public health systems? Actually, I think it's a pretty personal and difficult question to answer that's unlikely to be uniform across Europe. Perhaps it's because they drink more tea and coffee which themselves have high fluoride levels (~3-5x fluoridated water levels in the US? http://fluoridealert.org/issues/sources/tea/ http://fluoridealert.org/issues/sources/tea/
- nabla9 8y agoBecause they ad fluoride to salt (or sometimes in milk). In some places they remove naturally occurring fluoride from the water until it reaches what the WHO considers safe.
