It wouldn’t surprise me if there was a correlation. We will never know for sure because the lawsuits would be valued into the quintillions and would be civilization-ending.

fluoridation was prevalent everywhere for decades before spike in autism, so actually i would be surprised - unless it interacts with a more recent phenomenon to cause it.

I bet children exposed to floride in the first 10 years of life have a strong correlation to living in urban environments.

I wonder if the study was adjusted for that, or, perhaps, was it adjusted for the percent of different races?

There’s a direct correlation between murders/shootings in Detroit and temperature. This is true in all northern cities. The conclusion, high temperatures cause murders.

On the other hand, nobody goes outside just cruising around when there’s a foot of show on the ground. There’s that...

Autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), intellectual disability and specific delays in development were all found at higher rates among children exposed to fluoride during their first decade of life.

It's so easy to blame all these condition on flouride. Yet when autism is a condition from birth and cannot be a result of flouride - then this throws these ideas out the window.

Re: "Autism spectrum disorder"

Any time you see the words "spectrum" or "dysfunction" connected to a disease, the lawsuits are stalking closely behind.

CDC claims 1 in 36 USA children have autism.

There are hundreds of locations in the USA that have natural fluoride in their water.

Seems like we should have noticed this alleged medical issue before 2025.

..during their first decade of life.

Doesn't that apply to just about 75 percent of the US population? That's like saying there's a higher rate of cancer for those people who drank milk during their first ten years of life.

Baby Boomers are the first generation to benefit from modern medicine's progress in combating infant/childhood mortality.

Millions of Boomers with less than vigorous immune systems are alive thanks to modern medicine.

About the time those Boomers with less than vigorous immune system began having children, strange conditions no one previously heard of began appearing began appearing among Boomer children.

I don’t doubt the oft-repeated claim that fluoride is good for your teeth. I brush with fluoride toothpaste and wait to spit it out. I don’t rinse.

What happens when you drink or cook with fluoridated water? It seems like it takes a long trip through the stomach and intestines before a small amount, if any, makes it to the teeth. Does some fluoride end up in your heart, liver, brain, etc? What is the point of showering or bathing in fluoridated water? Why wash your clothes in it? Should you use it to water your lawn? Flush the toilet?

Apparently we owe a deep, heartfelt apology to the John Birch Society.

They were right. About everything.

When my first baby was born ober 50 years ago, the hospital gave me floride drops for her. But I noticed a change in her..like widrawal. My mom noticed it too, so I stopped giving it to her. She improved, but when I tried again, the same thing happened, and again I stopped them. The visiting nurse was angry, but I didn’t care. No more floride for my baby. We’re talking a newborn here! We didmissed the nurse. My daughter was over 50 when she got her first cavity.

The other kids weren’t given floride either.

For me the real point is that fluoride in toothpaste and rinses works fine. If I don’t brush my teeth no one else suffers tooth decay.

The government has no business force feeding me a chemical, beneficial, benign, or otherwise because it has decided I need to ingest it.
