Momentous court case

Here's news from the Alliance for Natural Health;

BREAKING NEWS! Water fluoridation presents an “unreasonable risk” to the health of children. The ruling from a US court, as a momentous legal case brought by the Fluoride Action Network and others challenging water fluoridation finally concludes. The case has taken 7 years, but will now force the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reduce the allowable levels of fluoride in water.

US Surgeon General backpedals on support for water fluoridation

The Alliance for Natural Health report: Despite decades of support for water fluoridation, it appears officials at the US Office of the Surgeon General are backpedalling on its support, due to the publication of a systematic review by the National Toxicology Program (NTP). The review, for which publication was extremely delayed, found fluoridation harms children’s brain development. The Defender has been given access to emails released by a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request as part of a lawsuit seeking to end water fluoridation in the US
