From the Daily Mail: Children in households with water treated with fluoride appear to be at a much higher risk of autism, according to a shock study.
Researchers discovered a staggering six-fold increase in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnoses among children who grew up fully exposed to fluoride versus those who did not consume the treated water.
The team from the nonprofit medical research group Institute of Chronic Illnesses Inc in Maryland looked at health records from 1990 to 2012, studying over 73,000 children in Florida during the first 10 years of their lives.
The results revealed a stunning 526 percent jump in the risk of ASD among children with full access to fluoridated water versus those who had none.
An increase in the risk for intellectual disabilities (102 percent) and developmental delays (24 percent) was also discovered in Florida counties receiving fluoride in their tap water.
Some studies suggest that fluoride might be linked to autism and other brain-related problems because it can stress brain cells and affect how they grow and function.

During a Trump Cabinet meeting Thursday morning, Sec. Kennedy announced that he is launching a massive testing and research effort involving hundreds of scientists to determine the cause of autism, and said he will have answers by September.

The Children’s Health Defense announced:
Water Fluoridation Linked to Autism, Other Developmental Delays in New Study. Autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, intellectual disability and specific delays in development were all found at higher rates among children exposed to fluoride during their first decade of life.
“It appears from this study that the public health intervention of fluoridated water may have traded brain health for tooth health.” — Karl Jablonowski (CHD’s Senior Research Scientist)
