Flouride prob isnt harmful. But it also isnt necessary and not using it will also save some money.

He said studies linking fluoride to lowering children’s IQ, thyroid issues and other negative health impacts are all related to high doses of fluoride — with levels of at least 1.5 parts per million. The standard for community water fluoridation in Louisiana and across the country is 0.7 parts per million.

“The dose makes the poison,” Kerst said. “We don’t fluoridate at even half of that level. [It’s] the same way that if I gave you too much salt, the same if you drink too much water, it could also be considered to be bad for you.”

This is what I’ve always thought to be true…oxygen is toxic if you ingest too much.

Do they know for certain that 0.7 parts per million is toxic? If so, they should provide that evidence before they run around trying to ban things.

Truth.

Maybe one thing we can agree on is that this is a silly thing for the state legislature to be debating.

Water supplies are managed at the municipal level and if we need a government solution, perhaps they should start at the level of the problem.

That way you don’t have some dude who went to Tulane law and lived his entire life in NOLA and BR having a say in what people in Natchitoches put in their water while those very people do not.

RIP to our teeth then.

For the conspiracy theorists...
You get more fluoride from a cup of tea than you do from a liter of tap water.
Raisins have three times higher concentration of fluoride than what is found in tap water.
Seafood and leafy greens like spinach are also higher in fluoride than tap water.

Great. So add it to your own water. Why should other people be forced to take a pharmaceutical against their will?

That isn't how science works. Science only works when you can question anything and everything.

Part of this issue that gets missed is there is a difference between calcium-fluoride and sodium-fluoride. Calcium fluoride is good for you and there is little evidence of it being harmful.

The same cannot be said about sodium fluoride. Sodium fluoride has been proven to calcify around the pineal gland. That is the gland that resides in the middle of your brain. You can easily start searching about the ongoing research regarding this calcification but there is a rather small mountain of evidence building showing this calcification is not beneficial to your health or mental wellbeing.
