More regulations on fluoride in drinking water may be coming due to the new court order last week, experts say.
Fluoride, commonly added to drinking water to prevent cavities, has come under scrutiny.
Several cities have now stopped adding fluoride to their drinking water. But whether the whole landscape will change depends on what the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will do next.
How Much Fluoride in Water Might Be Safe?
On Sept. 24, U.S. Federal Judge Edward Chen ordered the EPA to strengthen its rules around fluoride in drinking water.
The decision was made in light of The National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) report in August, which found that 1.5 milligrams of fluoride in drinking water is sufficient to pose neurodevelopmental risks in children.
The EPA calculates a margin of exposure to determine a safety buffer between the exposure and hazard levels. For fluoride, the exposure rate should be one-tenth of the hazard level, lawyer Michael Connett said.
Since the NTP’s report found 1.5 milligrams per liter to be potentially risky, exposure risks could start from 0.15 milligrams per liter, Connett added.
Americans’ current exposure level of 0.7 milligram per liter—”the level presently considered “optimal” in the United States – poses an unreasonable risk of reduced IQ in children,” Chen wrote in his ruling.
Currently, the EPA sets the maximum level for fluoride at 4 milligrams per liter, significantly higher than the risk level cited in the recent study.
I have a friend who manages the water facilities in a fairly large city. She is a credentialed chemist and objects to fluoride most of all because in its raw form it is a very harmful substance and the workers who add it to drinking water are rarely, if ever, properly trained or dressed to do that job safely.

The world has always been ruled by elites. Elites can only go so far against an informed public. The Trump/Musk/RFK wing of the American/Western elite is our best option today. Eva sees it, I see it, you see it. There is no other good political option right now. And this one is actually pretty good. ABN
At his return rally tonight, Trump, alongside Elon Musk, made a bold statement to the Deep State by playing Nessun Dorma, famously featured in The Sum of All Fears, where all the traitors are executed.
Nearly three months ago, this was the site of an assassination attempt on Trump, and now he’s back, sending the Deep State a defiant message in return.
If an employer isn’t legally permitted to use the most reliable measure of mental ability that exists (IQ tests) when hiring employees for cognitively-demanding positions, it will be limited to less reliable proxy indicators of intelligence like the quality of colleges attended and GPA. This encourages credentialism and boosts the value of a college degree, thereby increasing the demand for undergraduate and graduate-level education, which gives colleges an opportunity to raise tuition costs faster than the overall inflation rate. The extra dollars brought in with increased tuition get increasingly pushed into peripheral administrative activities (like DEI) unrelated to the essential function of a university, and into boutique and heavily-ideological areas of studies.
Have you noticed that they’ll let you talk about inconsequential conspiracies all day – aliens, Nazis doing dark arts, moon landing, JFK, 9/11 but the minute you point out WHO the international bankers are, what their REAL plan is, their role in every war and genocide, you are silenced, threatened, debanked, ridiculed and finally murdered.
They are not threatened by your half-wit conspiracies. It is only when you speak the Truth, when you name them, that they rise out of the dark.
They have designed such an effective brainwashing campaign that not only do your fellow countrymen rise up to attack you and defend the enemy, but you yourself feel as if you are doing something wrong – as if you are the villain in the story.
We were born into poisoned waters. The enemy instilled in us from youth that HE was the victim, that if you ever named him and pointed out his crimes against humanity YOU were the evil one. That in so doing YOU were committing the evils of your ancestors, who he made you believe were evil genocidal maniacs using every means possible – your school, your Church, your government, your books, your artists, your TV. It was everywhere to keep you from recognizing the poison that filled your atmosphere.
The process of deprogramming yourself is harrowing. You may be in the midst of life choices you made under such programming that you now realize were fatal mistakes. I was. The temptation to put your head in the sand, to not face the consequences of your actions and to uproot your life and do an about face, is great. Resist it.
One person speaking the Truth may ignite 100 other people to know it and speak it. That’s why they attack even the most insignificant person who does so. You must speak it or the next victim may be someone you love.
