Florida Surgeon General Advises Against Fluoride in Drinking Water Due to Neuropsychiatric Risks
Nov 22, 2024, 06:31 PM
Florida's Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, has issued new guidelines advising against the addition of fluoride to public drinking water across the state. This recommendation stems from concerns over potential neuropsychiatric risks associated with fluoride exposure, particularly for children and pregnant women. The move marks Florida as the first state to take such a stance, citing that the benefits of fluoride in water do not outweigh the risks. This decision could influence other states to reconsider their own water fluoridation policies.
