I would just like to explain the reasons for adding fluoride:
- Fluoride is one of the 27 vitamins & minerals for which the EU provide a recommend daily intake, Huel also contains all the other 26
- Fluoride can help prevent cavities
- We sell to over 30+ countries
- Not everyone has access to fluoridated water “Out of a population of about three-quarters of a billion, under 14 million people (approximately a mere 2%) in Europe receive artificially-fluoridated water. Those people are in the UK (5,797,000), Republic of Ireland (3,250,000), Spain (4,250,000), and Serbia (300,000).” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoridation_by_country - I’m sorry I don’t have numbers on naturally occurring fluoride in water
- Some people will not use / have access to toothpaste which contains fluoride
So in summary it’s tricky. Some Huel customers will not need fluoride from Huel as they will get it from tap water and/or toothpaste, but others will, e.g. in the UK only 5.8m receive fluoridated water (some also get natural fluoridated water but it’s not clear how many do) . Because it’s not essential as such - just beneficial, I’m edging towards removing it in 2.1 but adding a message suggesting that if you live in an area that doesn’t have fluoridated water it would be beneficial to use fluoridated toothpaste or fluoride mouth rinses as recommended by the NHS - http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Fluoride/Pages/Introduction.aspx
