I think the twentieth century should be called the Fluoride Century, but it's also the bastard grandchild of the Arsenic Century. Fluoride exposure from air pollution from coal-burning industries, aluminum refining and uranium enrichment enhanced the body's uptake of arsenic (and other heavy metals, especially lead) and caused significant public health illness. Dr. Devra Davis' book "When Smoke Ran Like Water" is a stark historical analysis. Industrial smog had to be curbed, hence Clean Air legislation. But due to the Cold War's dependence on fluorine for enriching uranium, and the zeal for burying industrial waste fluoride in drinking water as magic tooth medicine, the fluoride toxicity aspect of smog was left out. No one was told that fluoride in air or water gives toxic metals a free ride. No one dared to reduce arsenic and lead uptake by refusing water fluoridation. Eighty years on, the cities taking pristine source drinking water from the Great Lakes, with non-detectable natural arsenic levels, are adding fluoridation chemicals to it, with inherent arsenic. Toronto's Ashbridges Bay sewage treatment plant, for example, is the largest single-point source of pollution entering Lake Ontario. The detectable level of arsenic flowing into Lake Ontario in wastewater, entering the aquatic food chain, the fish-eating birds, and settling permanently in lakebed sediment, is almost all from the addition of fluorosilicates.

Recall also DDT? Glyphosate we could add these to the Century of Snake Oils...

Heavy metals - just look up Deuterium!

What is so interesting about theses metals is that each one, when chronically present, produces characteristic personality traits. In "Hair Test Interpretation, Finding Hidden Toxicities," Andy Cutler describes the arsenic personality, "The victim of arsenic poisoning experiences great anguish and often has an agonized expression on their face. Restlessness leads the victim to change locations frequently. They like to travel. There is much generalized fear - most notably of death and of being alone. Victims are frightened, worried and selfish. They may curse, rave and act viciously. They may be self injurious and suicidal. Sometimes arsenic will have such a profound affect on the personality as to cause psychotic behavior patterns." p. 92

In our chelation support group we see a whole lot of hair tests. We will sometimes see high arsenic and that is suspicious for chronic mercury, which is so very common, and mercury, if you get enough of it, stops the body from excreting other metals. Otherwise we will enquire whether the person is drinking well water. Hanging out in old orchards is a good way to get poisoned, too.

Lead poisoning is unfortunately really common around the world. I personally think that our prisons are full of lead toxic individuals as lead causes people to be angry and have poor impulse control. There is certainly enough of it floating around what with all the industrial uses and the old housing stock in so many of our cities.

And then there is mercury, "an undiagnosed epidemic." It is STILL used medicinally. There are still loads of ways that people get exposed. (https://www.maybeitsmercury.com/causes-of-mercury-poisoning) Mercury does all kinds of things to you because it can affect pretty much every system in the body. People get constellations of the more than 250 different symptoms. But as for the mercurial, archetypal personality, I would say anxious and eccentric on up to batshit crazy.

I am talking here about chronic poisoning that doesn't kill you but can keep you sick and crazy in to old age. The remedy is chelation done properly which unfortunately can be a long and tedious process. Alpha lipoic acid, used properly and dosed on its half life, chelates mercury and arsenic. DMSA chelates lead. The Andy Cutler protocol is arguably the only way to chelate safely. If you try to move any of this stuff too quickly, the consequences can be pretty dire.

If you are interested in my work, here is the book I cowrote with Andy Cutler, which explains a lot of this very clearly: https://shop.maybeitsmercury.com/index.php/product/the-mercury-detoxification-manual/

Still happening today and people remain oblivious… mercury in fillings and vaccines, aluminum in vaccines, deodorants and baking soda, lead in lipsticks, fluoride in tap water etc

Take a look at the anti-caking agents. Yellow Prussiate of Soda in salt is one example.

Thank you very much for this article Unbekoming, I was not aware of the poisoning extent... I lived in Britain for a few years in a Victorian house and the landlord mentioned it.

The Victorian era prided itself on progress, on empire and industry and scientific advancement because this is the period when they rewrote our history and took as their achievements things that were not theirs. Look at the famous World fairs for example, organised in architectural marvels they pretended they had built within a few years. These World Fairs were the Entertainment of the era based on terrible lies, like Hollywood is for us now.

Also remember these huge fires everywhere in America, destroying huge buildings in major cities... This was simply the gradual destruction of the Moors Empire (some call them Tartarian) with all its greatness, its electromagnetic grid used freely by all, its healing centres they turned into cathedrals, its electromagnetic generator stars they turned into military forts, and all these beautiful administrative building for councils, gouvernment departments, even post offices...

And of course the pretend we built them all by ourselves, putting false names on them ... Victoria's era is a disgrace to humanity, to God, to our souls. They rewrote of our history, it is based on lies, inversions are everywhere, and these evil eugenicists are still working tirelessly on poisoning us with their medical cults, keeping us asleep (media, Hollywood, music...), unaware of what happened, of what is really going on, and who we are.

Some dark Illuminati or freemasons or whatever we call them, decided to take power through violence, scam wars and financial crimes. And they're still at it!! They haven't changed. We have to wake up.

Please have a look at this amazing site by Michelle Gibson, her multiple articles and amazing pictures of the Moors Empire and what probably happened to them. Such an obliteration doesn't happen suddenly, it was well prepared, organised and it is still going on in parts of the world.

My dad tends to say : if someone from 200 years ago were to be brought back to life, he would die immediately again, from all the pollution in the air. It is said that burning wood and charcoal pollutes too, but it cannot be anywhere near than what Is in the air from all the chemical, petrochemical and other companies nowadays, plus all the cars, planes, ships... the electromagnetic pollution, the mining, the nuclear plants. etc.

I first heard of this issue from your recommendation of Forrest Maready's The Moth in the Iron Lung. It's a must read. Thanks so much for your work, esp. in the realm of health!

I read that book years ago. Fascinating. The beer issue was interesting. Arsenic in beer made a nice, clear product and enhanced the flavor. Some brewers emerged, when the problem was revealed, that began brewing beers in the traditional fashion without arsenic enhancers. The public preferred the poisonous brew. Current additives do not kill so fast or violently, but slowly degrade the body. People prefer the poison. Read the book, you will be amazed and horrified.

Wasn't there a "Sunday-Supplement" story about Napoleon Bonaparte being poisoned by his wallpaper..?

Thalie_1326's avatar

I saw something recently, not mainstream, mentioning that the dose of arsenic in his body was not responsible for his death, but I'm ready to read any article that would dig into it this subject though.

Neil Pryke's avatar

I think it was just a story...not even a theory...but there are probably articles for and against..!

Paris Green they called it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_green

Invented in 1814 by a German paint company. A chemical compound of copper and arsenic.

Recognized as the world's first true insecticide in 1867.

Better living through chemistry:).

Remember the early covid shot victims turning black, losing their limbs? It was horrible to see. Symptoms also sounds a bit like Gluten allergies. Can glyphosate mimic arsenic poisoning? Did they put arsenic in the covid vax, saw the effects, and then removed it? Inquiring minds.
