Fluoride is mentioned on Wikipedia, but was new to me. No details. Is this new?

- InclinedPlane 16y agoThat wikipedia entry is useless, there's numbers but not the numbers anyone actually would need. This seems a little more useful: http://toxipedia.org/display/toxipedia/Fluoride+Content+in+Tea http://toxipedia.org/display/toxipedia/Fluoride+Content+in+T... Apparently tea can have up to ~10x as high a Fluoride concentration as municipal drinking water. Also, there seems to be a case of a woman who developed bone fluorosis after consuming several gallons of double strength instant tea a day for a considerable time. So potentially it could be a concern but in practical terms it's unlikely to be a problem. If you're concerned I'd study which teas have the highest Fluoride levels (it's dependent on region and type of tea), determine whether your municipal tap water is also Fluoridated, and crunch some numbers to make sure you're nowhere near unsafe Fluoride consumption levels.
