what are the problems with fluoride? I thought that's a myth?
It is a communist plot to pollute our precious bodily fluids!
"I'm sorry too, Dmitri. I'm very sorry. All right, you're sorrier than I am. But I am sorry as well. I am as sorry as you are, Dmitri. Don't say that you're the more sorry than I am because I am capable of being just as sorry as you are. So we're both sorry, all right? All right."
From my understanding, there are apparently newer studies that seem to indicate that it isn't good for kids, but it's not extremely bad either, just not good. However, more research is needed and people want to stop fluoridating water just to be safe (realistically you're probably getting more than enough for your teeth from toothpaste)
9/10 dentists are against flouride in water because they want you to swing by more often.
when you get that fluoride stare
Search neurology and flouride toxicity, there are newer studies.
I listed them, but got downvoted, people want to blindly claim things...they don't even realize only a handful countries do this, they don't know what type of fluoride it is and that they all pay for it, they have not read how it already fucks up black people and latinos.
No one is saying don't use a fluoride toothpaste where you topically apply to your teeth and not orally ingest most of it, glad I grew up somewhere they didn't do that lol.
I can't find the post you're referring to. Can you link it?
