I'm glad this article is easy to read. It makes the article easier to share among those who still use 'experts' for outsourcing their daily self-care tasks. Note that while I don't particularly like the system of experts, I do use them when warranted.
Thank you for your analysis. Is there a monetary reason behind the big push to discredit fluoride critics. Usually in vaccines you can point to the conflicts of interest and the huge amount of money involved. But Fluoride? Or is this an angle out of the playbook to discredit on fluoride so it spills over into the areas where real money is at stake? Vaccines, prescriptions, drugs etc....
I was wondering the same thing. What is the motivation to promote flouridated water if it is actually harmful? Is it just to discredit RFK and people like him?
Yea. And look at the harmful. They are just saying if you ingest for years and years or decades you might have your IQ go down. Maybe not a lot.
I look at it this way. I have lead pipes. I generally filter my water because my city water system is old and I prefer how the water tastes. So to get better water and not drink lead I filter my water which also removes the fluoride. So why add Fluoride to the water? Or mandate it. It's silly.
The answer (IMHO) is the "fluoride" in water treatment is actually an industrial by-product in phosphate fertilizer production process. Specifically, “silicofluorides” (i.e., hydrofluorosilicic acid and sodium fluorosilicate). Here is an exert from a great website I will link below:
"The main chemicals used to fluoridate drinking water are known as “silicofluorides” (i.e., hydrofluorosilicic acid and sodium fluorosilicate). Silicofluorides are not pharmaceutical-grade fluoride products; they are unprocessed industrial by-products of the phosphate fertilizer industry. Since these silicofluorides undergo no purification procedures, batch samples and certificates of analysis that accompany shipments of fluoridation additives reveal that they’re often contaminated with elevated levels harmful toxins, including lead, aluminum, and arsenic — more so than any other water treatment chemical. In addition, recent research suggests that the addition of silicofluorides to water is a risk factor for elevated lead exposure due to the extreme acidity of silicofluorides. They can increase corrosion of the water infrastructure, resulting in the leaching of heavy metals from pipes and fixtures into the water that residents rely on for drinking, cooking, and bottle-feeding their infants. Moreover, the caustic nature of fluoridation chemicals requires the introduction of an additional treatment chemical to the drinking water to inhibit corrosion, called orthophosphates." https://fluoridealert.org/key-topics/frequently-asked-questions/
So, think about the idea of what would become of these TOXIC chemicals added to our "F***ing" drinking water if not for this "brilliant" method of disposal! Also, if your interested, I mentioned in an earlier comment that Fluoride is a Halegen. Halegens are highly reactive chemicals which will displace each other. Iodine is critical trace mineral, also a Halogen, but is displaced in our body when other Halegens are ingested, and Iodine is not. Fluorine (fluorides), Chlorine (Chlorines/chlorides), and Bromine (bromides).
We need more Iodine not other Halegens, for example the Japanese consume on average ~14 Mg's of Iodine daily (think seafood/those following traditional/not Western diets), and have one of the lowest cancer rates in the World. While the USA RDA for Iodine is 150 μg/day, 20 μg/day for pregnant women, 290 μg/day for lactating women. 1000 μg (micro grams)= 1Mg, huge difference. Anyway, I could go on, but you get the picture.
No one can comment or give a "thumbs up" unless you have an account or join the community. So far, there are 2 thumbs up. Comments closed after 3 days. How stupid is that?
The are putting fluoride in infants first milk formula now. It is so hard to find one that does not contain it. Remember, this is an infant that does not even have milk teeth yet.
We are 8 and a half months in breastfeeding but supply is short because she has damaged ducts on one of her breasts so we have to resort to one bottle feed a day unfortunately. It’s not a choice but mother has done extremely well in this regard.
After the Covid mandates debacle, apparently it’s still mainstream to force the ingestion of fluoride through the public water supply for the “public good”.
Thank you for your years of research and health advocacy, it is greatly appreciated! I will also add that the referenced study did not look at Iodine levels or of other halides, Fluorine (fluorides), Chlorine (Chlorines/chlorides), and Bromine (bromides).
For over 40 years, I have known the fluoride story...and how the aluminum industry needed a place to get rid of its toxic fluoride waste without paying for it to be handled as hazardous waste. It found buyers to transform it into products to put into the bodies of all Americans in their water, dental treatments and dental products. The aluminum industry saved money and the mental and physical health of the American consumer deteriorated.
TBH as soon as I read a media heralding a study and including the words “debunk” or “proves” I don’t need to read any further - ignore and move on. I appreciate the deep dives that you and others do here on Substack though. Thank you!
Fluoride displaces calcium overtime causing brittle bones and teeth. It is also antibacterial so consuming it in drinking water harms your gut microbiome and using fluoride toothpaste harms the oral microbiome. Add these to the IQ issues and clear NO. Add in Nazis dosed the Jews with it…Why?

Thank you for your in depth article. Another huge reason why I don’t trust big media.

should say 220 μg/day for pregnant women
Fight back. Go to Scientific American’s https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/massive-study-debunks-one-rfk-190500467.html
Go to the Comments section and give a Thumbs Up to the comment citing the new “Fluoride Harm” book.
No one can comment or give a "thumbs up" unless you have an account or join the community. So far, there are 2 thumbs up. Comments closed after 3 days. How stupid is that?
Are you sure about needing an account to give a thumbs up? Agreed about leaving a comment.
You’re right. Darn!
I tried several times. I get a popup that says:

Fluoride was weaponized in its gaseous form during WW1. Why would anyone want that chemical inside of them?
The are putting fluoride in infants first milk formula now. It is so hard to find one that does not contain it. Remember, this is an infant that does not even have milk teeth yet.
This is chemical warfare
What's wrong with Mom's breast?
We are 8 and a half months in breastfeeding but supply is short because she has damaged ducts on one of her breasts so we have to resort to one bottle feed a day unfortunately. It’s not a choice but mother has done extremely well in this regard.

These people are malicious. By "these people" I mean the ones that pay for fake science and media lies. Maybe the media lies for free, I don't know.

Very inciteful analysis of the scientific issues and the propaganda issues.
I wonder why folks in the MAHA movement continue to ignore that the Trump admin is fighting the federal ruling in the FAN lawsuit.
The Trump admin is fighting to keep fluoride in the water despite what RFK may be saying publicly.
