Tigeraholic1 Posted January 7 Author Posted January 7 (edited) Did I read that right? A rigorous nine year GOVERNMENT study? https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/06/health/children-higher-fluoride-levels-lower-iqs-government-study/index.html A rigorous nine-year research review looking at the relationship between fluoride and intelligence in children concludes that as fluoride levels rise, IQ drops. Every 1 part per million increase in fluoride in urine — a way of measuring all the sources of fluoride a person consumes — was associated with a roughly 1 point drop in a child’s IQ score, the review concluded.

Interesting - Still, one piece of meta work needs to be taken with a grain of salt (another substance which by the way you can find conflicting study evidence about! 😱) Quote Levy says that just publishing the meta-analysis of human studies doesn’t give readers important context about animal studies conducted by the National Toxicology Program, which found no apparent decrease in learning and memory in rodents exposed to low to moderate fluoride levels. He points out that all of the human studies included in the review were from countries outside the US and that the majority are classified by the study authors as having a high risk of bias. “Thus, despite the presentation of some evidence of a possible association between IQ and high fluoride levels in water, there is no evidence of an adverse effect at the lower fluoride levels commonly used in [community water fluoridation] systems,” he wrote. ....In a statement, they say they didn’t have enough data to know whether the level of fluoride that’s recommended for drinking water has any effect on children’s IQ. For me the missing piece in the story is what kind of dose rates it require to see 1ppm in a person's urine compared to what an average American receives. Edited January 7 by gehringer_2 Quote

chasfh Posted January 7 Posted January 7 Fun fact: January 6 is not the date the president takes office. That date is January 20. Please make a note of it. Quote
oblong Posted January 7 Posted January 7 I wonder if the Biden presidency is helping out with the transition efforts or are they acting like assholes like Trump's people did in 2021? We all know the answer to that. Quote

We all know the answer to that. Because Democrats are rules followers. The administration will make up stories of Democrats taking dumps on the desks the day they leave the White House. You know—something they would never do. 😏 You watch. Quote
Tigerbomb13 Posted January 7 Posted January 7 Can you imagine the nonsense he’s going to be babbling about in 2028 when he’s 82? Oh brother. Quote

CMRivdogs Posted January 7 Posted January 7 (edited) Quote NEWS President-elect Trump says he intends to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. While he can’t force foreign governments and other organizations to rename the Gulf, he can direct federal agencies to use Gulf of America. https://bsky.app/profile/yasharali.bsky.social/post/3lf65em665b2y Edited January 7 by CMRivdogs Quote
CMRivdogs Posted January 7 Posted January 7 Quote Q: Can you assure the world that as you try to get control of areas like Greenland or Panama you are not gonna use military or economic coercion? TRUMP: No. I can't assure you. I'm not going to commit to that. It might be that you'll have to do something. https://bsky.app/profile/atrupar.com/post/3lf64weaqmc23 Quote
