Fluoride
in your water can be hazardous to your bones, a new study
suggests. Research
on Tibetan children with discolored teeth found 96 percent
had "developmental skeletal abnormalities," said the study,
reported in the journal Fluoride. The tooth symptoms "should
be viewed as more than a matter of cosmetic concern," the
study said. It "might
lead to full-scale debilitating skeletal fluorosis" - with
pain, stiffness and bone defects.
