I feel like Lemmy has a short attention span
This is getting into the realm of the same cyclical argument as “Butter bad, oil good” / “Oil bad, butter good”
Each time a new study saying the opposite is released, everyone swears up and down they always had that opinion, haven’t flipflopped their stance, and that anyone who disagrees has a mental disability lol
Just think for yourselves, christ.
Did… did you actually read what you posted?
Nearly everyone in that thread is saying, “of course if you take TWICE the recommended dosage of a chemical it might be bad for you.” Nearly everyone in this thread is saying, “of course taking the recommended dosage of a chemical is not bad for you.”
It’s almost like, and this might be difficult for you to comprehend, the dosage matters.
You’re looking at studies of the impact at far higher fluoride concentrations than are used in the US. We’ve known that those high concentrations are problematic for a very long time…which is why they’re not used. They remain a problem in some parts of the world where fluoride is naturally present.
You lost me here. We knew there was some evidence that high doses were bad, your article says high doses are bad where “high” is twice the recommended, and this new study says actual use is fine
Accepting everything at face value here since I don’t have energy to dig right now, I’m not seeing anything inconsistent
Are you joking?
