A recent federal court ruling has thrown the controversial practice of water fluoridation into the spotlight, raising alarm bells about the potential risks of fluoride in drinking water. U.S. District Judge Edward Chen’s decision highlighted “substantial and scientifically credible evidence” linking fluoride to health risks, particularly its alarming impact on children’s IQ. This ruling has compelled the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to take action, although the specifics remain shrouded in uncertainty.
BREAKING: After a federal judge ruled that water fluoridation poses an “unreasonable” risk to children's intelligence, more US cities are stopping their water fluoridation programs.
This is the beginning of the end on water fluoridation.
