Based on recent research, consuming tamarind has shown to help the brain detoxify from fluoride!

Unfortunately, we consume a lot of fluorides daily as the water we drink have some levels of fluoride. If your body has an excess of fluoride, it could lead to harmful effects on the brain. Fluoride is becoming so prevalent in our world today, which means the chances of being exposed to high levels of fluoride are high.

Fluoride is used in the public water in America. Also, most toothpaste barns have fluoride in their composition. Our body reacts fast when overexposed to this chemical leading to many harmful impacts on our mental and physical health.

Fluoride Is Harmful To The Brain

Fluoride comes from the aluminum industry. It accumulates in the bodies, and ultimately the brain. It has been proved that buildup of fluoride could cause severe neurological damage. Researchers from Harvard University led a study after having doubts over the safety of fluoride in our drinking water to our children’s health.

According to the study, children who lived in high-fluoride areas had lower IQ scores than those who lived in low-fluoride regions. This data supports the disadvantageous effect of high fluoride exposure on children’s neurodevelopment.

The Pineal Gland and Fluoride

High levels of fluoride in the body are a concern for pineal gland health. The pineal gland is located between the left and right hemispheres of our brains and produces melatonin, which maintains our body’s sleep cycle.

The pineal gland is also responsible for creating female reproductive hormones at the right time and effective in protecting your body from cell damage and aging.

The National Research Council (NRC, 2006, p. 256) has stated:

“fluoride is likely to cause decreased melatonin production and to have other effects on normal pineal gland function, which in turn could contribute to a variety of effects in humans.”

How To Protect Yourself

Tamarind consumption can help to eliminate fluoride from the body:

“Significant improvements in carbohydrate and lipid profiles occurred as evidenced by decreased plasma glucose and lipid levels, lipid peroxidation, increased hepatic glycogen content, hexokinase activity and cholesterol excretion, with simultaneous improvement in antioxidant profiles of both hepatic and renal tissues.”

Tamarind increases the excretion of fluoride in urine. Tamarind can be consumed daily in many different ways. The most effective way is by using the leaves to make a tamarind fluoride detox tea.

Recipe For Tamarind Tea

1. Take 4 cups of water and 2 tamarind pods
2. Take a pan and add water.
3. Put the tamarind in the water and boil it.
4. Simmer the heat and keep on boiling it for 15-20 minutes until the pods become soft.
5. Remove the pod covers.
6. Put the tamarind without the shells into the water again.
7. Strain the pulp and the tamarind water.

Drink it straight away to feel the immediate fluoride cleansing benefits.
