Original Note:
Long-term exposure to fluoridated water at the .7 mg/L level has not been shown to lower IQ. Prozac's active ingredient is fluoxetine, which is a different compound. Fluoride is a byproduct of aluminum production, but is purified and diluted to a safe amount. https://www.factcheck.org/2024/02/cdc-experts-say-fluoridated-water-is-safe-contrary-to-rfk-jr-s-warnings/ https://ilikemyteeth.org/does-fluoride-lower-iq-scores/ https://dunedinstudy.otago.ac.nz/news-and-events/2014/fluoridating-water-does-not-lower-iq https://www.aap.com.au/factcheck/fluoride-ingredient-claim-in-prozac-is-false/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jul/12/facebook-posts/fluoride-safe-your-toothpaste-and-drinking-water-e/ https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/whatwestudy/assessments/noncancer/completed/fluoride https://origins.osu.edu/article/toxic-treatment-fluorides-transformation-industrial-waste-public-health-miracle
