Is fluoride-induced hyperthyroidism a cause of psychosis among East African immigrants to Scandinavia?
East African immigrants to Scandinavia are admitted to mental hospitals far more frequently than native Scandinavians. Most of these patients are admitted for psychosis, commonly ascribed to problems adapting to the new culture. However, psychosis is also known to be associated with hyperthyroidism, and the high frequency of psychosis among

Effects of fluoride exposure on performance in water labyrinth and monoamine neurotransmitters of rats
Objective To study the effects of fluoride exposure on performance in water labyrinth and monoamine neurotransmitters of rats. Methods Forty SD rats were divided randomly into 4 groups:control group,high-fluoride exposed group,medium-fluoride exposed group and low fluoride exposed group.These 4 groups of rats were exposed to different concentrations (0,5,10,20 mg/kg) of sodium

Effects of fluoride and lead on N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 expression in the hippocampus of offspring rat pups
To investigate whether excitotoxicity is involved in neurotoxicity of fluoride (F) alone and in combination with lead (Pb), the expression levels of the gene and protein N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 (NMDAR1) in the hippocampus of offspring rat pups at postnatal days 14 and 28 exposed to F and/or Pb were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase

Expression levels of brain nicotinic acetylcholine receptor mRNA and protein in coal-burning type of fluorosis rats.
Objective: To observe the learning and memory changes in coal-burning type of fluorosis rats, detect the expressions of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor(nAChR) at mRNA and protein levels in rat brains and to reveal the mechanism of changed learning and memory ability. Methods: Twenty-four healthy SD rats, weighting 100 - 120 g,

The Auditory Working Memory of 13-15-Year-Old Adolescents Using Water with Varying Fluoride Concentrations from Selected Public Primary Schools in North Kajiado Sub County.
Water contributes significantly to the physiological functions in the in the human body. However, low fluoride doses have been reported to affect the central nervous system (CNS) without first causing the physical malformations of dental and skeletal fluorosis. Aims and objectives were to determine fluoride concentrations in water used by

Fluoride Affects Learning & Memory in Animals
An association between elevated fluoride exposure and reduced intelligence has now been observed in 65 IQ studies. Although a link between fluoride and intelligence might initially seem surprising or random, it is actually consistent with a large body of animal research. This animal research includes the following 45 studies (out

Fluoride & IQ: 67 Studies
As of May 2020, a total of 75 studies have investigated the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence. Of these investigations, 67 studies have found that elevated fluoride exposure is associated with reduced IQ in humans, while over 60 animal studies have found that fluoride exposure impairs the learning and/or

Fluoride: Developmental Neurotoxicity.
Developmental Neurotoxicity There has been a tremendous amount of research done on the association of exposure to fluoride with developmental neurotoxicity. There are over 60 studies reporting reduced IQ in children and several on the impaired learning/memory in animals. And there are studies which link fluoride to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Teaching

Fluoride's Effect on Fetal Brain
The human placenta does not prevent the passage of fluoride from a pregnant mother's bloodstream to the fetus. As a result, a fetus can be harmed by fluoride ingested pregnancy. Based on research from China, the fetal brain is one of the organs susceptible to fluoride poisoning. As highlighted by the excerpts
