Absolutely.
I did the same thing with my kids when they were toddlers.
I also asked water delivery companies about specifying non-flouridated water and they charged more for it (alhambra)...
But here is my main kicker, think of all the various drinks you buy, from wine, beer, soda, coffee, energy drinks, bottled water, water at the restaurant to go with dinner... etc...
All of them, 100% of them, are a product made using flouridated water. Unless they specifically market that they are not (which I would still question).
My dad owned Timberland Water Company in Lake Tahoe, and we served ~600 homes from our little water company, which was literally a spring in the side of the mountain, in Timberland, Lake Tahoe, and it fill our giant water tank and flowed into the pipes to the neighborhood below.
My dad single-handedly ran that water company for several decades. Never flouridated the water. Had a lot of frozen pipes burst though.
I wanted to bottle the water but the PUD signed a law preventing me from doing so.
EDIT: My dad had to sell the water company to the tahoe PUD (they had been trying to buy it for years) - my dad finally sold when he needed the money for cancer...
So the PUD bought it, and I wonder if they flouridate the water now that they integrated it into the entanglement...
According to this, "ALL WATER IS FLUORIDATED"
https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/drinking_water/certlic/drinki...
Timberland water is in Placer County water district now that PUD owns it, it controls how it complies to fluoridation....
:-(
It’s about total dose… probably 1 percent or less of the liquids I drink are packaged or processed things rather than water from my own RO device.
I don't see how wine could be fluoridated?
Wine is watered to a standard strength. Also grapes can absorb many chemicals from what they are watered with. Thats the point of regional wine differences.
Watered to a standard strength? Wtf are you talking about? And grapes get water from the rain.

I mean no disrespect, but that is as it should be. Water is the fight of the coming century and must be preserved as a public resource.
Look at my update... At least I would have preserved a non-fluoridated system.
And if you also owned a water company, you would feel the way I do, and did.
