RFK Jr. Shakes Up CDC: Tells Agency to Stop Pushing Fluoride in the Water

In a major reversal of public health policy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has directed the CDC to stop recommending fluoride in U.S. drinking water—challenging a decades-old government stance.
·
The move came during a press event in Utah, the first state to officially ban fluoride from public water systems.
.
Standing with EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Kennedy said, “It makes no sense to have it in our water supply. And I’m very, very proud of this state for being the first state to ban it. And I hope many more will come.”
.
For years, the CDC has called water fluoridation one of the top public health achievements of the 20th century. But Kennedy says it’s time to revisit that claim.
.
He pointed to new data linking high fluoride intake to serious health risks, including lower testosterone, thyroid dysfunction, bone disease, and reduced IQ in children. A 2024 court ruling backed that concern, citing a federal review that found “higher levels” of fluoride were tied to lower IQ scores in kids.
