I've been using an undersink RO system by Express Water for years now, it has 11 stages, including UV and remineralization. Works really well. But I didn't switch to fluoride-free toothpaste until just recently. After only about a month or two after making the switch, I started getting dreams again, consistently, every night. And I don't get stoned often, but I do sometimes partake with friends, and more recently that's been hitting a lot harder.

I really wonder if there's merit to the claims around decalcification of one's pineal gland. I actually never looked into it, I don't even know if more dreams is considered a result of cutting out fluoride, it's just... A part of me didn't like that the government insists on putting it into the water supply, and so I just wanted to cut it out. But if that's true, if that's what they're doing, holy shit. They're literally stealing our dreams... And they do that in so many ways.

Ditch the weed.

I've always been in the fluoride mess. I use a cheap Britta water filter. I've always had dreams.

Accidentally (no pun intended) I stopped using fluoride toothpaste about 8 months ago and my brain or mind is working extremely well. Most of my stupid habits are falling away because I think, "this is dumb." I get along better with face to face humans and even when I see those other humans doing dumb shit I accept that they don't see it and I'm more patient with them. I care about people more too.

More focus is much better.

The last time I smoked pot was in 2003. To me it's an empty activity. My issue is alcohol and I have put that down tremendously. I realized we cloak many of our human struggles in "addictions" that are adopted to full the mind.

I think the fluoride phenomenon is very interesting. As a youth we were taught that it was naturally occurring in a town in the United States and the government (city, state) decided to put it in everyone's water so we could all have nice teeth. As a youth I got fluoride treatments ever dentist visit. I was also told if have to have my wisdom teeth removed at 17 and I never had that done. My last dental visit was in 2005. I have all over my teeth and I'm 53.

I stopped chewing tobacco about 8 years ago (snuff) because I could see visibly my teeth getting eaten away. I probably have tiny cavities but I brush my teeth with some "natural" toothpaste.

I eat foods that I have to chew and masticate.

I don't know. I think we have to share our experience and try to do our best with our available resources and put down the things we do not need.

It's not like I do it all the time. I just have trouble relaxing. Even reading is a stimulating activity, and I don't have many other hobbies other than what I do for work.

I don't disagree it's probably fine for when you go to the dentist, but after a certain age, they stop giving the fluoride rinse, and adults don't need to be exposed to fluoride constantly.

I'll admit, I'm still skeptical of what big government and companies like Johnson & Johnson think is okay to put in my body.

I'm actually wary of natural gas also, since it's piping chemicals into my home, and reduces indoor air quality.

Tobacco isn't great, though. I'm glad I never got into that. My dad chewed it all the time, so I kinda knew what it was like. Not for me.
