Okay fluoride gang (of which I may be a member)…
A study about the affects of fluoride in municipal water on plants: MSU study
Depending on where you live, there is already enough naturally occurring fluoride in the well water that adding more doesn't mean much. How else do you think they discovered fluoride helps your teeth?
Since I live in a rural area and need to have my own well, I know my water contains enough fluoride that it would be silly to add more. But some areas do not have enough naturally present. So it would be interesting to see the water test results for Florida cities to check the amount of naturally occurring fluoride present. YMMV
Toxicology isn't a real profession. These people are run by big toxicity. For real water advice you want a homeopath.

Nah trust me bro.
I never met the fellow. I never did the science either.
You all are easily impressed.
The question about this is that the same can be said about lead. Do we want to consume that?
Toxicity is a big word. What about small long term effects?
Lithium is prohibited in eu outside of psychiatric therapy, too. But it might be an essential nutrient (small doses).
My trust into the official ~~narrative~~ science is limited.
Edit: as the tobacco interest group has proven studies and scientific evidence can be bought. Don’t know why y’all are reacting so allergic
