Debate Intensifies Over Fluoride in Drinking Water Across the US
TL;DR Summary
Florida's Surgeon General, Joseph Ladapo, has recommended against adding fluoride to drinking water, citing potential neuropsychiatric risks and the availability of fluoride through other sources. This stance aligns with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a known opponent of water fluoridation, and comes amid speculation that Ladapo may be considered for a role in a future Trump administration. Major U.S. health organizations, however, continue to support water fluoridation for its dental health benefits.
