  • Key Deposition Segments From The TSCA Fluoride Lawsuit – STK

    The Director of the CDC’s Oral Health Division, Casey Hannan, testifies that the CDC is unable to cite studies showing fluoride is effective when swallowed: Director Hannan admits that CDC is not aware of any evidence of fluoride’s benefit to infants. As you watch this, keep in mind that there are now 10 studies funded […]

  • Excess fluoride can hurt teeth, bones, IQ

    A new study released Wednesday has shown that too much fluoride in tap water could be harmful, causing cavities rather than preventing them and leading to bone damage and possibly even lower IQ levels. The report by the National Academy of Sciences found that people exposed to the maximum level of fluoride allowed in tap […]

  • Lack of health studies into fluoride in water’s effects is ‘troubling’

The inclusion of research data from over 800 mother-child pairs in Odense, Denmark, when merged […]

  • 2023 study on fluoride & IQ contradicts so-called ‘safe’ levels in drinking water

    Professor Philippe Grandjean is a professor of environmental medicine at the University of Southern Denmark and a research professor at the University of Rhode Island. ‘We have to do everything we can to remove toxic exposures to support brain development.’ This study lead by Grandjean brought together 3 cohort studies, from Mexico (ELEMENT study), Canada […]

  • Harvard Scientist Criticizes Wichita Paper’s Whitewash of Fluoride/IQ Study

    A poorly fact-checked article from a Kansas newspaper is being cited by well-funded advocacy organizations across the country to convince decision-makers, physicians and the public to disregard a peer-reviewed Harvard research paper linking fluoride to lower IQ in children, reports the Fluoride Action Network (FAN).
