HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy supports a ban on fluoride in public drinking water, acknowledging potential increases in dental issues, especially among low-income children. While he recognizes the concerns raised by dentists and health experts, he points to a lack of cavity increase in Europe where fluoride is not commonly added to water. Kennedy emphasizes that parents should have the choice regarding fluoride, citing research showing an inverse relationship between fluoride levels in water and IQ loss, as reported by the National Toxicity Program in a recent review.
"It is an issue, it's a balance. You're gonna see probably slightly more cavities, although in Europe, where they banned fluoride, they did not see an uptick in cavities."
"The issue is parents need to decide because science is very clear on fluoride. The National Toxicity Program issued a report of a meta-review of all the science on it in August that said there's a direct inverse correlation between the amount of fluoride in your water and your loss of IQ."
