Abstract

Noteworthy multi-disciplinary undertakings have been taken to investigate the effects of natural fluoride ion (F) contamination since the preceding century. Fluoride is a hazard to the earth and human prosperity. Developed and developing countries are standing up to such enormous extents of issues in light of fluoride in the drinking water. Human use to fluoride has bourgeoned since World War II, on account of fluoridated water and toothpaste just as to the normal defilement by huge ventures, from aluminium to pesticides, where fluoride is an essential mechanical concoction similarly as a waste product. The chapter deals with the proportion of fluoride in nature and its impact on human prosperity, generally on the brain, endocrine system, thyroid, pineal gland, immune system, reproductive system, and organ systems. High assemblies of F in soil may really bargain the life of plants, obliterate soil microbial development, upset the soil environment, and cause soil and water defilement. This chapter further emphasizes various biological approaches for the remediation.
