A recent federal court ruling has confirmed the current fluoride levels in U.S. drinking water, endorsed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), poses an unreasonable risk of reduced IQ in children. The ruling underscores the need for immediate regulatory action to ban water fluoridation, as it challenges decades of government promotion of fluoridated water as safe and beneficial.
The National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) recent report on fluoride neurotoxicity, provides compelling scientific evidence that fluoride exposure is consistently associated with lower IQ in children. This authoritative report validates longstanding concerns about the dangers of fluoride and highlights the necessity for immediate policy changes to protect public health according to The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT).
