Florida’s Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo has issued guidance recommending that fluoride is removed from public water.
Ladapo said that fluoride, a neurotoxin, should be removed from public water by 1 January next year or “as soon as possible thereafter.”
He added that the measure was necessary because of the “neuropsychiatric risk associated with fluoride exposure.”
The guidance states: “Historically, community water fluoridation was considered to be a method to systemically, through ingestion, deliver fluoride to all community members. However, currently many municipalities across the U.S. and several European countries, including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, and Sweden, have eliminated water fluoridation”.
InfoWars reports: The guidance goes on to list a wide variety of detrimental health effects of fluoride exposure beyond certain levels, which include “adverse effects in children reducing IQ, cognitive impairment, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, “increased neurobehavioral problems in children whose mothers ingested fluoride during pregnancy,” and “accumulation of fluoride in the pineal gland, causing sleep cycle disturbance.”
Ladapo added that “the previously considered benefit of community water fluoridation does not outweigh the current known risks, especially for special populations like pregnant women and children.”
The recommendation comes after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made clear that removing fluoride from public water will be one of the new Trump administration’s top health priorities.
“On January 20, the Trump White House will advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public water,” Kennedy Tweeted.
“Fluoride is an industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease. President @realDonaldTrump and First Lady @MELANIATRUMP want to Make America Healthy Again.”
In September, Judge Edward Chen, in the Northern District of California, ruled that fluoride in drinking water poses an “unreasonable risk” of reduced 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,” Chen wrote.
“EPA’s own expert agrees that fluoride is hazardous at some level,” he added, citing a report by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and National Toxicology Program (NTP) which “concluded that fluoride is indeed associated with reduced IQ in children, at least at exposure levels at or above 1.5 mg/L.”
American towns have already started removing fluoride from their water supplies after Judge Chen’s ruling.
Yorktown and Somers, both in New York State, have both announced an end to municipal fluoridation.
Somers Supervisor Robert Scorrano said that the town’s decision to stop fluoridating the municipal water supply would “give residents the freedom to choose their own sources of fluoride, ensuring personal control over their health decisions. Additionally, concerns about potential long-term health risks from fluoride exposure support reevaluating its use in public water systems.”
