Fluoride

Prenatal Fluoride Exposure and Cognitive Outcomes in Children at 4 and 6–12
Years of Age in Mexico

This landmark U.S.-government-funded study found that “higher prenatal fluoride exposure, in the general range of exposures reported for other general population samples of pregnant women and nonpregnant adults, was associated with lower scores on tests of cognitive function in the offspring at age 4 and 6–12 y.” According to Paul Connett, Director of the Fluoride Action Network (FAN), “There is no longer any doubt that fluoride gets into the brain and causes damage.” Connett also has stated, “We are shocked and dismayed that public health officials and the media aren’t informing pregnant women to limit their fluoride intake.”

The Fluoride Action Network (FAN) provides an excellent summary of the extensive research documenting that fluoride is a neurotoxin—over 300 studies to date, including 53 human studies linking fluoride exposures with reduced intelligence.
