.Gov Study Shows 1.5 mgs of Flouride in drinking water has an inverse correlation on IQ in children (makes them dumber). Immediate rebuttal from people, “But Flouride at the lower 0.7mg in our drinking water has not been studied yet.” ….. hold up, aren’t you concerned at all?

>The literature in children was more extensive and was separated into studies assessing intelligence quotient (IQ) and studies assessing other cognitive or neurodevelopmental outcomes. Eight of nine high-quality studies examining other cognitive or neurodevelopmental outcomes reported associations with estimated fluoride exposure. Seventy-two studies assessed the association between fluoride exposure and IQ in children. Nineteen of those studies were considered to be high quality; of these, 18 reported an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children. The 18 studies, which include 3 prospective cohort studies and 15 cross-sectional studies, were conducted in 5 different countries. Forty-six of the 53 low-quality studies in children also found evidence of an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children.
>The NTP monograph concluded, with moderate confidence, that higher levels of fluoride exposure, such as drinking water containing more than 1.5 milligrams of fluoride per liter, are associated with lower IQ in children. The NTP review was designed to evaluate total fluoride exposure from all sources and was not designed to evaluate the health effects of fluoridated drinking water alone. It is important to note that there were insufficient data to determine if the low fluoride level of 0.7 mg/L currently recommended for U.S. community water supplies has a negative effect on children’s IQ. The NTP found no evidence that fluoride exposure had adverse effects on adult cognition.
No evidence in this scenario, means that no study was done, so it is misleading.
There are plenty of high IQ places what have fluoride in their drinking water.
Don’t worry your fluoride will soon be replaced with a bunch of toxic forever chemicals, pollutants etc when trump cuts a bunch of regulations and defunds environment/health departments.
Cue the, “but it’s got what teeth crave!” bots.
Nope
If it wasn’t the fluoride in the water…what made Americans so stupid?
The epitamy of stupidity is knowing you lack education but still think youre smarter than others. Other than oligarchs…it was the rural uneducated americans who voted for a fascist.
I hope RFK Jr is successful at making MAGA more intelligent…but knowing he has no education or experience he might.just be another stupid American who drank too much water.
Is this one of the problems political philosophy theory states is one of the major problems of democracy…when the citizens are too stupid to vote for their best interests?
Maybe the problem is democracy in a world of stupidity and another form of republic is needed to save the world.
