Declan Waugh 13 hrs · Fluoride and Down Syndrome. I never saw this before, its a paper published in 1998. You can read the paper in full from page 7 onwards. The author notes the following: The number of excess DS births due to water fluoridation is estimated to be several thousand cases annually throughout the world. Though many environmental factors have been hypothesized for DS,e.g.,maternalillness, radiationexposure, viruses,endocrinefactors,and others,the above analysis confirmed that there might be no other factor which promotes DS so steadily and widely as the total daily intake of fluoride except aging of mothers. In ending the author notes: Artificial water fluoridation for prevention of dental caries was introduced in 1945 in the USA and has been recommended and promoted by the World Health Organization. But now we must ask the people of the world whether such an amount of fluoride linked to Down syndrome can justify a possible decrease in dental caries or not. It must be stressed that the prevention of dental caries can be achieved by environmentally safer and less costly alternative procedures. fluorideresearch.org/…/FJ1998_v31_n2_p059-128.pdf
