Original Note:

The claim is misleading. One 2014 UK study found a link with fluoridated water areas & higher rates of thyroid issues, which can lead to depression & weight gain. https://fluoridealert.org/news/fluoride-in-drinking-water-may-trigger-depression-and-weight-gain-warn-scientists/ https://jech.bmj.com/content/69/7/619 Fluoride isn't linked with impaired thyroid function. https://jech.bmj.com/content/71/10/1019 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7261729/ Negative Effects Seen in High-Fluoride: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/154164 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38029816/ BIAS: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/npr-news-natural-news/ https://www.naturalnews.com/055431_water_fluoridation_depression_obesity.html
