Two states have now passed fluoride bans. These other ones introduced bills. [View all]

Following a push by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and another Republican-led state, Florida this week banned the long-standing practice of adding fluoride to public water systems.

In a measure opposed by dentists and medical organizations but praised by Kennedy, the secretary of U.S. Health and Human Services, and others questioning it's safety, Utah became the first state to ban fluoride earlier this year.

Several other states have introduced bills that would curb the use of fluoride in water. They include:

Kentucky

Louisiana

Massachusetts

Nebraska

South Carolina

Lawmakers in other states including North Dakota, Arkansas, Tennessee, Montana and New Hampshire saw anti-fluoride legislation effort but the bill either failed or was tabled and missed deadline for the year.

Bobby Brainworm also recommends swimming in fecal contaminated water as a way to build up one's resistance.
