Recently I saw an article which caught my eye regarding tap water, and some issues it has been having on people's health. I was really intrigued as it was specifically aimed at us in the west midlands.
Fluoride, a natural occurring mineral found in tap water may be causing lots of us thyroid problems. Our thyroid is a gland found in the neck which controls our mood, weight and other systems in our body. Studies are showing that in areas where the fluoride levels are higher, there are more rates of people suffering with an under active thyroid. If your thyroid gland is under active this can lead to depression, weight gain, fatigue and aching muscles.
Public Heath England have noted the evidence but say the water is safe to drink.
