This week Reactions takes a look at the science going on in our tap water, mainly the fluoride. The chemistry of fluoride has helped reduce cavities in children for decades. Still, more than 70 years after Grand Rapids, Michigan, became the first city to fluoridate its drinking water, the practice remains controversial. Some worry that fluoridated drinking water can lead to health issues, but what is the scientific consensus? • Find us on all these places: • Subscribe! http://bit.ly/ACSReactions • Facebook! / acsreactions • Twitter! / acsreactions • Tumblr! http://tumblr.com/ACSReactions • LA Funk • Producer: • Elaine Seward • Writer: • Darcy Gentleman, Ph.D. • Executive Producer: • Adam Dylewski • Scientific consultants: • Michael Hornyak, Ph.D. • Susan Richardson, Ph.D. • Darcy Gentleman, Ph.D. • Sources: • A systematic review of the efficacy and safety of fluoridation: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18... • Collection of systematic reviews of water fluoridation: http://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/safet... • http://www.cochrane.org/CD010856/ORAL... • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11... • A systematic review of the efficacy and safety of fluoridation: http://www.nhmrc.gov.au/_files_nhmrc/... • 2015 CDC Statement on Fluoride: http://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/pdf/s... • 2015 U.S. Public Health Service Recommendations: http://www.publichealthreports.org/do... • 2005 ADA report on Fluoride research (specifically addressing health concerns): http://www.ada.org/~/media/ADA/Member... • http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrh... • http://www.theguardian.com/commentisf... • http://blogs.mcgill.ca/oss/tag/fluoride/ • http://www.waterrf.org/resources/Stat... • Ever wonder why dogs sniff each others' butts?
