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).
Ten significant studies have explored the adverse effects of fluoride, bringing attention to the precautionary principle in public health policy. This article delves into these findings, contrasts them with responses from the American Dental Association (ADA), and discusses the challenges in changing public health policies due to vested interests.
Recent findings from two significant studies have reignited the fluoride debate, suggesting that the dental benefits of fluoridated water are minimal at best.
This article reviews the findings of a recent study by Drs. Bill Osmunson and Griffin Cole, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic cost, benefits, and risks associated with Community Water Fluoridation (CWF).
The National Toxicology Program (NTP) released a long overdue systematic review of fluoride's neurotoxicity with the conclusion that prenatal and early life fluoride exposures can reduce IQ.
When the EPA tried to deny the Citizen’s Petition filed by the Fluoride Action Network, IAOMT and other groups, a complaint was filed, and a judge ruled in favor of FAN, the IAOMT, and others.

The results of the first ever US government funded study of fluoride and IQ have just been published. A team of researchers found a statistically significant association between fluoride exposure in women during pregnancy and a lowering of IQ in their children, reports the Fluoride Action Network. The study was published in Environmental Health Perspectives by scientists [...]
There are many reasons to oppose water fluoridation, including safety concerns and health risks. Reason #1 to Oppose Water Fluoridation: Fluoridation is a violation of the individual’s right to informed consent to medication. Within a community water supply, fluoride is being added to the water of everyone, even [...]
In November 2016, the IAOMT joined the Fluoride Action Network and other groups to petition the EPA regarding the neurotoxic risks posed by fluoride chemicals in drinking water under Section 21 of TSCA. Click here to read the detailed citizen’s petition.
