Fluoride in Water: Benefits, IQ Concerns & What to Check First

Fluoride is not simply "poison," and it is not magic. The useful question is dose, source, and who is more vulnerable.

In this episode, I walk through why fluoride helps prevent cavities, what newer NTP and JAMA Pediatrics analyses do and do not show about higher total fluoride exposure and children's IQ, and how to think about water testing, toothpaste, pregnancy, infant formula, kidney disease, and heavy tea intake without panic.
