The debate involving fluoride rages on.
A recent Harvard University study indicated that children living
in areas with high fluoride content in water have significantly lower
IQs than children living in areas with less fluoride. The study looked
back at 27 previous investigations of fluoride and made many
conclusions.
It’s conceivable that fluoride may be a development neurotoxicant,
according to the study. The level of fluoride that hinders brain
development in children is a much lower level than would impact an
adult.
Rats that came into contact with low fluoride concentration in water
displayed cellular changes in their brains. They also saw higher levels
of aluminum in the brain tissue.
Some studies have even concluded that there’s a correlation fluoride
and beta-amyloid plaques, something often seen in the brains of
Alzheimer’s patients. Fluoride may also adversely affect the brains of
fetuses and newborn babies.
Still, like many previous studies regarding fluoride, much research
is necessary before passing off this information as fact. There are
other factors that may contribute to these health problems.
