| RATIONALE:
Right now, there are a significant number of posts on sci.med.nutrition
that are either sales pitches for nutritional products or cross-posted
arguments over the ethics of eating meat. The ethical considerations
for eating meat are on topic themes for talk.politics.animals and
rec.food.veg - they are not on topic for sci.med.nutrition. Sales pitches
are not welcome in sci groups. The on topic discussions have become
the minority in the last year, and as a result many regular contributors
have left the newsgroup. |

| Everyone who participates in sci.med.nutrition is on a diet in order to
improve their health, and promote their personal longevity, NOT to lose
weight. Furthermore, many participants believe in taking nutritional
supplements just as much as they believe in eating a healthy diet. |

Here is an article I received today from Nutrition News Focus. I
getting this newsletter (I left the subscription info at the bottom). I
drink water filtered by Brita, but Im not sure whether it filters
flouride out. My brother in law, a dentist, said you are better off not
giving your kids bottled water b/c it doesnt have any flouride in it.
Id to hear if anyone knows whether Brita filters remove flouride. |
