The evidence linking fluoride to lower IQ is weak at best. https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/water-fluoridation-hasnt-been-associated-with-cognitive-health-problems-contrary-to-widespread-claims/ https://ilikemyteeth.org/debunking-unreliable-claims-the-harvard-study/ https://ilikemyteeth.org/does-fluoride-lower-iq-scores/ https://ilikemyteeth.org/debate-fluoridation/does-fluoride-lower-iq-scores/ https://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/index.html
