Understanding the fluoride wars
Earlier this year, in episode #2273 of the Joe Rogan Experience, the world’s most successful podcaster started sounding off about fluoride, calling it a “neurotoxin” and citing “conclusive studies” linking high levels of fluoride in the water to lower IQs. In a clip that has been viewed more than 1.2 million times, Rogan expressed bafflement to his guest Adam Curry, the entrepreneur and media personality: “We know it’s bad for you in large doses, and yet there are fucking people out there with college degrees who read the New York Times who will get angry if you want to remove this neurotoxin from water because, ‘Look at all the strides its done in preventing tooth decay,’ and you just wanna say hey man fuck you, this is stupid.
