Federal Trial Status Hearing on Fluoride
Before
we get to our new video series, we have some important news to share in
regard to our TSCA court case against the US Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA). Next Thursday, August 6th, at 10:30AM (Pacific US) /
1:30PM (Eastern US) the judge will hold a status hearing on our case.
At
the end of the trial, Judge Chen urged FAN and EPA attorneys to
consider a new assessment of an updated TSCA petition by FAN, giving the
EPA a chance to correct the errors they made during their previous
assessment. At Thursday's hearing, the judge will hear if any progress
was made by the parties, or if it will be left to him to make a final
ruling.
The
proceeding will be open for public viewing on Zoom. While the
following Zoom link hasn't been 100% confirmed, below is the current
info Judge Chen is providing for his hearings all this week and next.
If anything changes we will provide updated info in a bulletin that
will be published closer to the hearing.

FAN Q&A: You Asked, We Answered!
Several
weeks ago we asked our supporters to submit any questions they had on
fluoridation, including on the TSCA lawsuit and recent trial. We
received a lot of questions from around the world, and in response FAN
has produced two new series of Q&A videos providing answers and
featuring FAN staff and Advisory Board members Paul Connett, Rick North,
Chris Neurath, David Kennedy, and Stuart Cooper.
Click on the video below to access a playlist in which you can view the entire FAN Q&A TSCA Fluoride Trial video
series in one location. Here we answered questions about the potential
rulings, outcomes, the science presented at trial, and what a victory
could mean for US states and other countries.

video series in one location. Here we answered questions about
transdermal absorption, reducing exposure, levels in beverage products,
how to end the practice locally, and much more.
More Public Health Warnings About Fluoridation
The
piece is packed with powerful quotes, hyperlinks to the studies cited,
and makes a well-informed and convincing argument for public health
authorities to re-assess their support of fluoridation due to the large
amount of research showing harm and outdated science proponents continue
to use to defend the practice. Consider sharing it with nurses,
nursing organizations, and elected officials in your area.
Another recent development was the publication of Till's 2020 study on using fluoridated water to reconstitute infant formula and an associated lowering of IQ for the child was published in the Journal of Pediatrics in their column of "Current Best Evidence: Translating best evidence into best care."
There is also a relatively new peer-reviewed study published in The British Journal of Psychiatry linking the low levels of aluminum and fluoride found in public drinking water due to their addition during water treatment "with deleterious effects on dementia risk."
