LimeBack has officially opposed the addition of fluoride in drinking water, after having supported this practice for years, arguing that toxicological risks, such as the increase in dental fluorosis (touching a third of children according to the CDC in 2005) and the potential effects on the bones, the brain (drop in Qi), and the thyroid were a major problem surpassing Profits.

< P > He, among other things, apologized to students and colleagues from the University of Toronto, admitting having “involuntarily induced in error” by promoting fluorization without having examined the toxicological data available. This approach, reported in an interview in April 2000, will have marked a key moment when he admitted to having followed a narrative for 15 years without questioning it.
