Flouride in Drinking Water Linked to Lower IQ in Children

This week a federal judge ruled against the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over concerns about the currently recommended fluoride levels in drinking water throughout the country.

Judge Edward Chen issued the ruling on Tuesday, citing a recent review by the National Institutes of Health which concluded that higher levels of fluoride may be linked to lower IQ in children.

“In all, there is substantial and scientifically credible evidence establishing that fluoride poses a risk to human health; it is associated with a reduction in the IQ of children and is hazardous at dosages that are far too close to fluoride levels in the drinking water of the United States,” Judge Chen wrote in his ruling.

If the ‘experts’ at the NIH are admitting something so shocking, the evidence must be overwhelming.

Unfortunately, it is. Studies going back decades have backed up the claims, but they have largely been dismissed and ignored.

From the NIH report:

“The NTP monograph concluded that higher levels of fluoride exposure, such as drinking water containing more than 1.5 milligrams of fluoride per liter, are associated with lower IQ in children. The NTP review was designed to evaluate total fluoride exposure from all sources and was not designed to evaluate the health effects of fluoridated drinking water alone. It is important to note, however, that there were insufficient data to determine if the low fluoride level of 0.7 mg/L currently recommended for U.S. community water supplies has a negative effect on children’s IQ.

The NTP uses 4 confidence levels – high, moderate, low, or very low – to characterize the strength of scientific evidence that associates a particular health outcome with an exposure. After evaluating studies published through October 2023, the NTP Monograph concluded there is moderate confidence in the scientific evidence that showed an association between higher levels of fluoride and lower IQ in children.

The determination about lower IQs in children was based primarily on epidemiology studies in non-U.S. countries such as Canada, China, India, Iran, Pakistan, and Mexico where some pregnant women, infants, and children received total fluoride exposure amounts higher than 1.5 mg fluoride/L of drinking water. The U.S. Public Health Service currently recommends 0.7 mg/L, and the World Health Organization has set a safe limit for fluoride in drinking water of 1.5 mg/L. The NTP found no evidence that fluoride exposure had adverse effects on adult cognition.”

This ruling puts a spotlight on the alarming consequences of excessive fluoride exposure, especially for the most vulnerable among us—our children.

The movement against high fluoride levels also mirrors broader health initiatives to regulate toxins in drinking water and food supply of Americans.

Rather than respecting individual liberties and allowing families to choose what they consume, government agencies often impose blanket regulations without acknowledging the harm they cause.

Activists like RFK Jr. have been shining a light on what many perceive as a government-sanctioned assault on the health of Americans via agencies such as the FDA which green-lights the distribution of toxic and addictive chemicals in our food.


The recent ruling by Judge Edward Chen stands as an important moment in America’s ongoing battle against the unchecked power of federal agencies like the EPA and FDA which seem to only serve as a detriment to public health.

    Helps explain why my cousins are so stupid. Raised in Connecticut, they had it for years.

    Since the mid 1940s, fluoride has been added to water. That is a very long time. JUST now they are saying it makes children stupid. NO, it is our educational system doing that all by themselves and the teachers of low quality teaching them. They rather teach children about gender changing, having gays expose themselves in parties at school and racial blame instead of Math, Science, History, English, etc. When they ask 20 somethings on the street questions, the majority have not a clue about anything that they should know if they were taught correctly. Europe knows our history better. Far too long, you all let education slip. Now, if you are a parent and disagree about their children’s education, they arrest you. America, take back control and the only choice for America and your children is Trump. Unless you think Joy will solve all these issues.

    I find it an evil abomination that our federal government agencies that we pay to protect we the people are poisoning us. And it’s like the covid vaccine and the do no harm oath mean absolutely nothing to them. Are they controlled by the WEF making diabolical plans to kill us off like pinky and the brain in order to take over the world? So many adults and now children have fatty livers caused by overworked livers trying to rid our bodies of all the toxic poisons and corn syrup in our foods. And what’s the answer – ozempic- another toxic substance that kills you! And the FDA approves it again, whose side are they on? Not ours!
