There are a lot of other things that could be causing this effect besides the fluoride. But getting into the early 2000s, especially, you start to see some researchers at least noting this and asking some questions about, okay, is there a pattern here that we need to investigate more?

They do, although it happens slowly. In 2006, there's a kind of a panel of advisors commissioned on behalf of the federal government say, some of this evidence about neurotoxicity is suggestive enough that we need to see more research. And that begins in particular to trigger some studies, some initial research within the National Toxicology Program, which is an

The National Toxicology Program is beginning to invest some considerable resources, both in funding research, funding epidemiological research on fluoride, and also commissioning a systematic review by some of their own scientists, meaning an intensive, intensive, exhaustive look through the scientific literature to try to understand whether there's a pattern here that merits review.

Yeah, you know, it's a tough question and it's a question where depending on who you ask, you can get dramatically different answers.

What I would say is that there is a small body of evidence that suggests that there may be some link between fluoride and neurodevelopmental effects, so especially sort of negative effects for fetuses or for young children at doses of fluoride that are not that much higher or maybe actually are the same as what people are routinely encountering when drinking water
