  • The Fluoride IQ studies

    The Fluoride IQ Studies Fluoride’s ability to damage the brain is one of the most active areas of fluoride research today. Over 600 studies have found that fluoride can damage the brain. • From 1989 to 2023, a total of 87 studies have investigated the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence. • 78 studies have […]

  • 2019: Latest Information

    Dramatic increases in dental fluorosis point to widespread fluoride overexposure with risk of neurotoxicity March 15, 2019 – Researchers report a huge increase in dental fluorosis in the USA in a paper just published in the Journal of Dental Research – Clinical & Translational Research. Dental fluorosis is a tooth enamel defect caused by excessive […]

  • Artificial Fluoridation Damaging Children’s Developing Brains: An Analysis of NTP Data

    Scientific Conference Presentation: Artificial Fluoridation Damaging Children’s Developing Brains: Analysis Of NTP Data MAIN FINDINGS: “High-quality studies of fluoride neurotoxicity are remarkably consistent in finding statistically significant adverse effects at exposure levels of artificial fluoridation.”  “Dose-response analyses show adverse effects likely at exposures as low as 0.3 mg/L or lower.” Last month, FAN’s Research Director, […]

  • The Mother-Offspring Fluoride Studies

    There are now 9 Mother-Offspring fluoride studies. Eight of the studies revealed that the fetus and the formula-fed infant (Till 2020) are the most vulnerable to fluoride’s neurotoxicity. Seven of the nine studies measured the urinary levels of pregnant women for fluoride as it is the most accurate indicator of daily total fluoride intake. The […]

  • C8 Science Panel finds more problems in new studies

    When last we heard from the three scientists on the C8 Science Panel, they were explaining to Wood County Circuit Judge J.D. Beane all their reasons for not yet issuing a finding about whether there is a “probable link” between exposure to the chemical C8 and adverse human health effects. Well, the Science Panel has […]

  • Studies of Fluoride Supplements: No Evidence of Safety – No Benefit Either

    According to the Cochrane Oral Health Group, fluoride supplements fail to reduce tooth decay in primary teeth, permanent teeth cavity-reduction is dubious and health risks are little studied (1). Further, “When fluoride supplements were compared with topical fluorides or with other preventive measures, there was no differential effect on permanent or deciduous teeth,” write Cochrane […]

  • Fluoride Can Cause Cancer, Studies Show

    Many published human and animal studies have reported an association between fluoride and various cancers, including valid and unrefuted scientific evidence that fluoride can increase the risk of osteosarcoma (a type of bone cancer) in boys and young men, reports the Fluoride Action Network (FAN) in its recent submission to the California Environmental Protection Agency’s […]

  • VIDEO: Scientific Advisory to Federal Agencies Warns of Fluoride Neurotoxicity

    VIDEO: Scientific Advisory to Federal Agencies Warns of Fluoride Neurotoxicity I have another very important video to share with you today. It should be shared–along with yesterday’s earth shaking statement from Linda Birnbaum–far and wide repeatedly with decision-makers, journalists, friends, family, and within your community. This new video features Bruce Lanphear, MD, MPH. He’s a […]

  • New Deposition Videos Featuring CDC Oral Health Director

    If you could ask representatives of the Centers for Disease Control and Protection (CDC) about the safety and efficacy of fluoridation under oath, what would you ask them? Our lawyers had that opportunity during depositions for our TSCA case in federal court, and today we will reveal two new video clips featuring the CDC’s Oral […]

  • New Studies: Fluoridation fails to reduce cavities in New York City and nationally

    New research shows that fluoride chemicals added to U.S. public water supplies are not reducing tooth decay as promoted and promised by government agencies, reports the New York State Coalition Opposed to Fluoridation, Inc. (NYSCOF). Using federal statistics, the West Virginia University Rural Health Research Center reports that urban U.S. children, with more exposure to […]
