What are neurobehavioral effects and disabilities? you may be asking. They are negative health effects that include the following: autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, dyslexia, and other cognitive impairments, which are occurring with increasing frequency, especially in U.S. children along with millions of others on a global basis. Two physicians, Philippe Grandjean, MD, and Philip J Landrigan, MD, whose research in neurobehavioral effects was published in The Lancet Neurology [1] March 2014 issue, state that industrial chemicals injure the developing brain and are the cause of their widespread rise. In their 2014 study, the doctors named manganese, fluoride, chlorpyrifos, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, tetrachloroethylene, and the polybrominated diphenyl ethers that they added to five previous chemicals they wrote about in their 2006 paper: lead, methylmercury, polychlorinated biphenyls, arsenic, and toluene. It’s rather profoundly ironic that fluoride, which dentistry has touted as a prophylactic dental health benefit since the 1960s, is now being demonized as contributing to neurobehavioral disabilities, especially since it’s been implicated in lower IQ test scores. [2] And, paradoxically, fluoride, a protoplasmic poison, is added to most municipal water sources in the USA. [3] Ever since day one that fluoride was ‘supplemented’ into municipal water systems in the USA, I opposed it and did my best not to consume it – even to this day, I don’t drink it. In my practice as a consulting natural nutritionist, I always advised clients to avoid eating, drinking, or cooking with fluoridated water, plus avoiding bathing in it, as fluoride can be absorbed through the skin. Furthermore, I did not approve of fluoride drops [4] that pediatricians prescribed for children. For those convictions, I was called a “quack.”
