Original Note:
The claim that fluoride causes the body to absorb more aluminum, leading to Alzheimer's disease, is false. Fluoride is beneficial for dental health when used appropriately, and there is no proven link between aluminum exposure and Alzheimer's disease. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jul/29/facebook-posts/evidence-does-not-support-link-between-alzheimers-/ https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/about-dementia/types-dementia/who-gets-alzheimers-disease https://www.alzheimersresearchuk.org/news/aluminium-and-alzheimers/
