I recently became aware of a whole separate issue with fluoride, and how it interacts with aluminum in body. Creates a known industrial hazard, aluminum fluoride.

from wikipedia:.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_fluoride

"Safety

The reported oral animal lethal dose (LD50) of aluminium fluoride is 100 mg/kg.[20] Repeated or prolonged inhalation exposure may cause asthma, and may have effects on the bone and nervous system, resulting in bone alterations (fluorosis), and nervous system impairment.[21]

Many of the neurotoxic effects of fluoride are due to the formation of aluminium fluoride complexes, which mimic the chemical structure of a phosphate and influence the activity of ATP phosphohydrolases and phospholipase D. Only micromolar concentrations of aluminium are needed to form aluminium fluoride.[22]

Human exposure to aluminium fluoride can occur in an industrial setting, such as emissions from aluminium reduction processes,[23] or when a person ingests both a fluoride source (e.g., fluoride in drinking water or residue of fluoride-based pesticides) and an aluminium source; sources of human exposure to aluminium include drinking water, tea, food residues, infant formula, aluminium-containing antacids or medications, deodorants, cosmetics, and glassware.[22] Fluoridation chemicals may also contain aluminium fluoride.[24] Data on the potential neurotoxic effects of chronic exposure to the aluminium species existing in water are limited.[25]"

Who's to say if this was known or not before hand, but regardless, our own bio-chemistry is being used against us.
