   How could fluoride be linked to IQ drop now? They told me the science was settled.

     @feld so the funny thing is that the reason they found the problem is something anti fluoride people have said for years, that studies weren't testing places with high enough levels.

     @sun I don't think the levels we intentionally add to water are bad, but there's very likely high levels naturally in places that is a problem and they really should look for that. I mean, the water quality EVERYWHERE should be well documented by now

     @feld incidentally natural fluoride is a different metal salt than the kind added to water, it might be equally bad though

     @faggotracist1488 fluoride toothpaste is actually ok because it's topical, fluoride is bad if you swallow it

     @sun yeah but youre almost certainly swallowing some of that
     i always play safer than sorry and some of the alternatives are still just as effective if not a little more expensive

     @lucy @sun @faggotracist1488 well fluoride is in a lot of things naturally so the amount you swallow from toothpaste accidentally would be in safe ranges

     @sun no, the science is settled that it reduces IQ in higher than safe doses https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/us-government-report-fluoride-recommended-limit-linked-lower-113035057

     @meso ok so it's not bad at recommended limit, but it might be higher in places with natural fluoride
