Is fluoride a macro or trace mineral?

Fluoride is considered a trace mineral. It is required by the body in very small amounts for dental health, but excessive intake can be harmful and lead to fluoride toxicity.


Is sodium fluoride harmful to your skin or body?

Ingesting large amounts of sodium fluoride can be harmful to your body, especially to your bones and teeth. However, it is commonly used in dental products like toothpaste to prevent cavities and is safe when used as directed. It is not typically harmful to your skin unless you have a specific sensitivity or allergy.


How does fluoride reach your penal gland?

Fluoride does not specifically target the pineal gland. However, fluoride can accumulate in various tissues in the body, including the pineal gland, through the bloodstream. The extent of fluoride accumulation in the pineal gland and its impact on pineal gland function is still an area of ongoing research and debate.


What all in the body does Fluoride effect?

Fluoride primarily affects the teeth by strengthening tooth enamel and helping to prevent tooth decay. When ingested, fluoride can also accumulate in bones and help to increase bone density. However, excessive fluoride intake can lead to dental fluorosis, a condition that affects the appearance of the teeth.


How do you measure fluoride deficiency?

Fluoride deficiency is typically measured by assessing the concentration of fluoride in a person's urine, blood, or saliva. More commonly, the presence of dental caries (cavities) may indicate fluoride deficiency as fluoride helps protect teeth against decay. A healthcare provider can perform specific tests to evaluate fluoride levels in the body to determine if a deficiency is present.

Where is fluoride stored?

Fluoride is only used by the body when it is in direct contact with teeth, they help fight caries in the earlier stages. There can also be some minor benefit to bone structure. Fluoride itself is not stored by the human body, because it is not a nutrient, it is an activating agent. Fluoride is toxic to the human body and ingesting fluoride will not help the teeth, instead it will be a strain on the body and consuming large amounts of fluoride will kill you. So don't eat toothpaste or drink mouthwash containing fluoride. Fluoridated water poses no health risk because of the low concentration, but can significantly improve dental health - especially in low-income areas. In other areas fluoride is present enough (in tooth-paste and other sources) to render the fluoridation of drinking water useless.

What does floride do for the human body?

Fluoride doesn't do anything on the outside of the body, unless in contact with with high concentrations of many fluoride salts, this can be dangerous.
