Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Claims Fluoride Exposure Makes Kids Stupid

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has sparked controversy again by claiming that fluoride in tap water is "brain poison," particularly harming children, and advocates for federal regulations to remove it from drinking water. During a White House Cabinet meeting, he stated support for Florida's bill to eliminate fluoride supplements, despite mainstream health experts like the CDC, WHO, and ADA recommending fluoridation as a safe, effective way to prevent tooth decay. His views clash with decades of scientific consensus on fluoride benefits, though his criticism has faced backlash due to unfounded accusations about autism.
