Abstract
The present study revealed that various non-dietary items like pan masala, chewing tobacco, betel nuts, and toothpaste may contribute to the fluoride burden of the human body. In this line, an attempt was made to analyze the fluoride content of non-dietary items collected from Panipat City of Haryana. The study depicts that intake of pan masala, chewing tobacco, betel nuts, and toothpaste expose the consumers to 21.0 to 56.80, 18.00 to 36.20, 7.45 to 77.40, and 21.10 to 1118.20 µg fluoride/g respectively. The demand for these non-essential edible items is increasing daily, and people are unaware of the detrimental health effects of these products. The people of the study area are advised to prohibit these products as they contain an appreciable amount of fluoride.
