[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about informed consent and proper dosing?  Why does tooth decay get this weird special status as the one disease that deserves to have the drug dumped in the water instead of properly measured and administered by dentists, doctors, and parents?[/quote]

Move somewhere else if you don't want it. Buy it at CVS, they sell fluoride-free water. I, for one, prefer to keep it in my drinking water as a mother to two kids. I do not want to go back to the first half of the 1900s when we did not have it in our water, but if you want to go back in time to a lower life span, have at it.

There are fair questions to ask - making sure we look at the dose in our water in combination with using fluoride toothpaste, and whether the local region water supply has sufficient fluoride naturally or not.

To be clear, PFAs in our water - I am far more worried about that. Are you familiar with the research on PFA impact on our health? If you want to worry about something, that would be the biggest concern and the MAHA movement is blatantly ignoring it.

What kind of minater ate you?  That’s great that you want to dose your kids with fluoride and that you think fluoride increases lifespans.  But don’t force it on people who don’t want to risk the IQ-lowereing effects.  Fluoride is an industrial byproduct—it’s available basically for free.  You can add it.  People who don’t want it can’t remove it or buy fluoride free water without spending a lot of money.

Freedom from forced medication is an obvious American value, but you want to force your preferred medicines into wveryone else’s water?? What is wrong with you?[/quote]

Why are you not commenting on PFAs in drinking water? Why aren't you far more worried about those? It's weird, frankly. [/quote]

the PP is harping on harmless levels of fluoride while literally likely drinkiing water right now containing PFAs, her kids have PFAs, we're all full of microplastics and eating food like seafood full of both. PFAs might be a bit more of a concern in the IQ department, but hey, she saw some video about fluoride being rat poison that got her riled up on Instagram!

Here, take some research and go spout off to your MAGA friends? Literaly please! I'm begging you, can you guys actually care about this if you truly want to MAHA?

"The study, published in the scientific journal American Journal of Epidemiology, shows that high concentrations of PFAS measured in mothers’ blood during pregnancy were associated with slightly lower IQ scores among their children at the age of 7."

"PFAS in drinking water was associated with increased cancer incidence in the digestive, endocrine, oral cavity/pharynx, and respiratory systems. Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) ranged from 1.02 to 1.33. The strongest association was observed between PFBS and oral cavity/pharynx cancers (IRR: 1.33 [1.04, 1.71]). Among males, PFAS was associated with cancers in the urinary, brain, leukemia, and soft tissues. Among females, PFAS was associated with cancers in the thyroid, oral cavity/pharynx, and soft tissue. PFAS in drinking water is estimated to contribute to 4626 [95% CI: 1,377, 8046] incident cancer cases per year based on UCMR3 data and 6864 [95% CI: 991, 12,804] based on UCMR5."

MAHAs, where ARE you on this stuff? Come on, please pay attention to sh*t that actually matters! [/quote]
