End of fluoridation of US water could be in sight after federal court ruling

Summary

Nutrition label

83% Informative

Fluoride is added to drinking water for more than 200 million Americans , or about 75% of the population, at recommended levels of 0.7 milligrams of fluoride per liter of water.

US water has been fluoridated since 1945 , though the recommended levels have since been lowered over health risks.

Advocates say the ruling shows they are overcoming “institutional inertia” and unwillingness of public health agencies to admit they may have been wrong.
