Chloramine And Fluoride In The Public-Water Supply Is Bad For Our Health
Its causes a plethora of physical illnesses in humans, which is proven. NH2CI is a combination chemically, of Chlorine and Ammonia combined to form a new, and much more potent combination, than either components are separately.

I agree. If we are drinking chemicals then that can't do good for us in anyway!

Au contraire - it's saved many lives, and millions of American kids can say "Look, Mom! No cavities!" (Boy, does that age me, or what?)

In high school debate we had a water quality topic and fluoridation of water occasionally came up as a subtopic. That was long ago but I remember we had lots of literature on both sides of the topic. The prime anti-fluoride quotes all came from one guy who argued the fluoride in higher concentrations could be used as a poison. But against that there was a long list of other experts who not only slammed his credibility but had countless studies of safety with fluoride at the drinking water levels. Sorry I can't remember the names.

Granted maybe some research changed between now and then. But in my gut I'm believing this is a repeat of the same issues from back then and the flouride isn't really a problem.

Oh, and the chloramine problem I believe had to do with interactions of chemicals with decaying leaves in reservoirs and pipes. It's actually more an issue of filtering out those botanicals from water supplies than an issue of added chemicals.
