Fluoride-linked down syndrome births and their estimated occurrence due to water fluoridation

Down syndrome (DS) birth rates (BR) as a function of maternal age exhibit a relatively flat linear regression line for younger mothers and a fairly steep one for older mothers with the second line intersecting the first line a little above maternal age 30. Consequently, overall DS-BR for all maternal

Association of Down's syndrome and water fluoride level: a systematic review of the evidence

Background: A review of the safety and efficacy of drinking water fluoridation was commissioned by the UK Department of Health to investigate whether the evidence supported a beneficial effect of water fluoridation and whether there was any evidence of adverse effects. Down's syndrome was one of the adverse effects reported. The

Editorial review: Fluoride and down's syndrome (mongolism)

Down syndrome, water fluoridation, and maternal age

It has been claimed that there is a positive association between the frequency of Down syndrome and the fluoridation of drinking water. It has also been suggested that this association is most pronounced in young women. Recent congenital malformations data obtained from birth certificates from large U.S. cities have been

Oligophrenie mongolienee et caries dentaires

Une enquête épidémiologique sur la fréquence du mongolisme dans quelques Etats du Midwest américain nous a permis de mettre en évidence les faits suivants: 1: un parallélisme entre la fréquence du mongolisme et la teneur en fluor de l'eau de boisson; 2: une rareté relative des caries dentaires chez les mongoliens; 3: une

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
