With the tsunami of sources for injesting fluoride from dentrifices, oral rinses, and professionally applied products, it is way past time to suspend the fluoridation of municipal water supplies. And this observation comes from a dentist, born and raised (and still resides) in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the first municipality to add fluoride to its water supply in 1945...at 1.Oppm, it should be noted. This public health initiative may have made some sense in a relatively "fluoride free" society at one time but that is no longer the case. Until proper studies are conducted which take in all the variables (a tall task, admittedly), the addition of fluoride to our water systems is contraindicated.
Some of the questions never seemingly asked are: what is the safe exposure level for pets? What happens with edible plants that are irrigated with fluoridated water? In other words, how much fluoride are our kids ingesting with their vegetables? How much is proper for rabbits and deer when they consume the grass watered with this stuff?
Good! I hope that this forms precedent to help remove it from drinking water. Water filters may be beneficial anyways to remove everything else, but fluoride is more difficult to remove and thus more expensive making fluoride exposure a health equity issue where those with more money can lower their exposure while those with less have no choice but to be exposed to it. I’ve fought this fight with my own city council for years without success. Maybe this will start to change things.
I haven’t followed this issue too closely. But doing a quick search about it, of course, brought up a series of highly ranked propoganda videos sponsored by the alphabet agencies who’ve taken over and destroyed the American health system.
It is so egregious that this should take as long as it did. I grew up in Rotterdam, Holland, and for about 10 years in the 1950's we had fluoridation, but by the 60's the (american) 'science' was found to be flawed, and it was taken out. Why it should take 65 years to establish the same thing here is a mystery to me. Now let's see how long it takes for cities to make the appropriate changes.
Fluoridated water may lead to lower IQ and a more compliant population that will accept masking and distancing and whatever crazy rules bureaucrats dream up. What government wouldn't want a more compliant populace?
Thank you for this info!!!
General Jack D. Ripper HAS BEEN VINDICATED!

Wow, awesome! A major step!
This is great! I wonder if a dentist I know will now take notice!?!?
YUP!

I have worked towards this outcome for 25 years. What a relief that the judge told the truth and wasn't killed for it. Yet.

Thank you for your insight. The US could learn a lot about environmental toxicology from the policies of other countries.
And the bombs keep dropping. There will be accountability. I have to believe there will be accountability.
But . . .will the EPA do anything to protect the public?
Was fluoride necessary to perpetuate the COVID lie?
