It's sometimes strange how the news cycle works. This is the second post this week about fluoride and adding it to municipal water systems. This post is short, because all of the real information is in the lnked story at the bottom, but it for sure is something you need to be aware of.
My post this past Monday was on the ongoing fluoride controversy and my feelings on that. However today's post is about a news item. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr had a press conference on Monday. He was in Salt Lake City celebrating the recent law passed in Utah that bans fluoridation in any municipal system in the state.
While there, he announced that he plans to tell the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to stop recommending fluoridation in communities nationwide. It was also announced Monday that the EPA is reviewing the potential health risks of fluoride in drinking water.
You can read all of the info on a pretty informative article on the Associated Press website.
