No problem. Just wait a year. Another study will “prove” fluoride is safe and that this study was somehow faulty. Is coffee good this week, or not? Are eggs good this month, or not.

You get enough fluoride from your toothpaste if you brush at least once a day.

Like so many other things, it seems the John Birch Society was right all along. Almost everything they warned about has come to fruition.

I agree. There is really no good reason to be consuming it internally.

JBS was a favorite whipping boy of the left. They still would be if there were any left around. As the old saying goes “Heavy flak usually means you are over the target.”

I used to be in charge of a public water supply system. We were not required, but strongly encouraged, to add fluoride to our water. A few years before I left the state regulators recommended we reduce the fluoride levels, which we did. The reason given for that recommendation was that people don’t need it because they get enough fluoride from other sources, especially toothpaste.
Adding fluoride to drinking water has always been controversial. I would get one or two phone calls per year from customers imploring that we stop using it.

Back in the day I never read anything by the John Birch Society. I avoided it because the mainstream media said they were right wing kooks and crazy. Back then I actually trusted the medias fairness and truthfulness. Gullible me!
A couple months ago I came across old issues of their magazine. Much to my surprise, they pretty well had everything they wrote about nailed. They were Americas Casandras but we didnt listen.

One of their great long-forgotten lines about how the lefties work:

that’s because flouride ‘mimics’ iodine by attaching to the iodine receptors, blocking the absorption of iodine. low iodine causes cretinism and retardation

A long time ago a friend took me to visit them at their HQ in Belmont, MA.
They were not at all the way the media portrayed them.
The folks there were friendly, very smart, and very calm.
That was my first “hint” that the major media were lying to me.
