    Fluoride exposure during pregnancy was associated with lower IQ scores in children aged 3 to 4 years.

    The recession will happen in September/October/November/December of 2019/20/21/22. You should sell your shares, wife and kids, and buy gold and cabbage.

    Thanks. I've bought gold cabbage to save space.

    I have 2 cabbages in the fridge. Anyone interested? I'm suggesting a price midway between gold and platinum.

    I'm going to take the cabbage and the platinum across the river first and leave the gold behind

    A quick google informs me that some studies have shown there might be something to this.

    The numbers involved in this study are very small, far too small to draw robust conclusions.
    600 children with 41% in fluoridated water areas, and 59% in non-fluoridated water areas. 246 children compared against 354. The difference in sample size between the two samples alone is enough to explain a 4% difference

    Small scale studies massively increase the impact of random outliers
    In the 108 extra children there could have been a couple of kids who were either precocious or developmentally challenged for reasons entirely unrelated to their water consumption.

    I thought Fluoride was meant to make us docile for our lizard overlords. Not stupid. Or were they triangulating our position using Fluoride content and criss-crossing chemtrails?


    .... Plus, how many kids are pregnant at 3 or 4?
