Ah, but what is fluor? Certainly not sodium fluoride! Much of the argument
I have seen against fluoride has been based on confusion between fluorine
(the halogen, poisonous, active, greenish-yellow gas) and fluoride (halide
compound).
It's the same as if one said that chlorine gas is very poisonous (which it
is) and was used by the Nazis to kill people in the gas chambers (which it
was - it was also the main poison gas used in World War 1) that we should
avoid all chlorides. The chemical relationship between them is precisely the
same as for fluorine and fluoride. OK - except that sodium chloride is the
main constituent of table salt, sea salt and salt lamps!

The Nazi's used Fluor in order to sterilize the prisoners.
Fluor is very poisonous.
