‘The science of fluoride is starting to evolve’
what an awful headline. nothing is ‘evolving’ here, any negative effects from fluoride only occur where fluoride in the water is well above the recommended level.
It’s a direct quote that’s used later in the article:
Modern inquiry into fluoride’s non-dental health effects began to pick up pace in 2015, when the National Toxicology Program (NTP) requested a systematic review on fluoride’s impact on neurodevelopment. By 2019, toxicology researcher Bruce Lanphear, of Simon Fraser University in Canada, co-authored a study finding fluoride exposure was associated with decreased IQ, which would later be incorporated into the NTP’s systematic review. “That gives you an indication that the science of fluoride is starting to evolve – it wasn’t set in stone 70 years ago,” he said. Lanphear, and a small group of like-minded toxicology researchers, argue now is the time for us to “pause and have an independent scientific committee look at all this new evidence” as “we have a lot of new science specifically about fluoride and the developing brain,” he said.
that doesn’t make it a good headline.
What I’m reading here is that there’s a correlation between incomes which can afford bottled water and higher IQs which could be a result of any number of systemic factors.
Beautifully incisive.
Thank you!

Find me something that health officials say is unsafe above a specific ppm. Then find one that doesn’t have terrible effects like IQ loss when you have 10-100x that level in your water (which, to be clear, is veeeeery few people in this case)
JEEEEEESUS mainstream media folded FAST. The new adminstration hasn’t even taken office yet.
It will be an avalanche of misinformation on hundreds of topics
These awful headlines are just a tiny sample of the clusterfuck to come.
Is there any stated reasoning for the NTP review in the first place beyond “People like RFK think it’s scary”?
No.
They can try to impose their reality upon the world, but you can’t change the laws that govern our universe. They’re the reason shit is and isn’t. Words dont change that. The only reason to rid yourself of fluoride in the drinking water at current ppm is to fuck up poor people’s teeth.
In the drinking water? Isn’t that the stuff in toothpaste, which you shouldn’t swallow?
at much, much lower levels.
Fluoride salts are added to public drinking water to help protect your teeth. If you grew up in the US, you were taught this.
Well, i’m not. We take it over toothpaste here.

Interessant. Ich wundere ob es ist mehr oft in Westen Europa ins Wasser oder nicht.
