So... if your urine and blood is too dilute, does it mean that the drugs are being flushed out along with water?

*Shrugs* I don't like drugs, legal or illegal. I won't even take Tylenol unless i'm half dead lol. But other people apparently do. It's their right to inject themselves with crazy glue for all i care... I strongly doubt that part per trillion concentrations will cause a serious negative effect in the general population though. Especially non killer drugs like anti depressants ( i mean, cell killers).

yes. But it is dilute so nothing shows up in testing. But if they were to collect every bit of urine I release from the day they probably would find all the medications I take. You also have to remember that pain medication and others leave harmful parts in your liver and kidney's but you flush out the rest. So what is flushed and ingested by others is now also leaving a small harmful portion in you organs. After time you will feel the effects in the form of diseases. So the amount of water I put in my body each day is damaging to my system and they now know it. My medical case is freaking our state legislature out because I'm so rare there are no laws to protect me like there are for you or any other American.

An even bigger problem is fluoride. Fluorine is the most chemically reactive and electronegative of all the elements. In other words, it's very difficult to remove from our water supply. It's also poisonous.

So why do they put it in our water?

The original study regarding to decay and fluoride involved calcium fluoride which showed promising results. Rather than attributing these results to the calcium part of the molecule they gave all the credit to fluorine.

This is why we have a whole assortment of fluorine based compounds in our water supply; all of which have the same EPA rating as nuclear waste. So, rather than paying thru-the-nose for toxic storage, they dump it in our water because it's "good for our teeth".

BTW, fluorine has a similar effect on our brain chemistry as its periodic neighbor, lithium. It dulls the senses and makes us complacent.

How convenient, no?

We've been fighting them putting it and other chemicals in to keep the lead pipes clean. And I can't have sodium and here they are putting it in the water. No wonder I'm a medical mess. My water does go through a 12 step filtration with ozone added. I can't even come close to tap water without gaging from the smell of the chemicals. Bottled water in the stores is just as bad. Same with some of the delivered water you put on a cooler, it usually only goes through a 1-3 step filtration. Sorry Brita, you won't work for me.

ok... but i still don't buy the idea of long term accumulation... If that was the case, people who actually consume anti depressants would drop like flies - their doses are huge and repeated over long time (period of treatment). Plus, if you are correct, they get an extra kick from water lol...
