  • Fluoride Studies funded by the U.S. Government

    The human studies funded by U.S. government agencies (Bashash 2017, Green 2019 and Till 2020) reveal that in fluoridated communities the fetus and the formula-fed infant are the most vulnerable to fluoride’s neurotoxicity. Certain high levels of fluoride in the pregnant women’s urine were found to significantly impact the IQ, or neurodevelopment, of the offspring. […]

    … it is not a question of if community water fluoridation should be discontinued, but if it is worth the risk of lowering the IQ of at least certain individuals for an intervention that we have a viable substitute.

  • Paul Gosar Just Promoted a Conspiracy Theory That He Built His Career Fighting Against

    Note from Fluoride Action Network: We labeled this article as misinformation because the author, Hunter Walker, did not invest any effort to understand Senator Gosar’s position and ended up ridiculing him for doing the right thing. Why is Gosar right? •  Gosar was for fluoridation in 1997 and 2001 but changed his mind last week […]

  • National Party Not Current On Fluoride Science

    The National Party is relying on outdated and discredited science in its continued support of adding a hazardous waste (“fluoride”) to the public water supply. The most up-to-date scientific review has been completed by the US National Toxicology Program (NTP), finding that higher fluoride exposure is consistently associated with lower IQ in children (see page […]

  • New Study Links Child Neurodevelopmental Deficits to Fluoridated Water in Calgary

The authors said their tests measured “executive function deficits [that have been] consistently associated with behavioural and neurodevelopmental disorders such as […]
