Scientists in England have found that fluoride could be causing depression and weight gain and have urged councils to stop adding it to the drinking water. The new findings directly contradict a report released by Public Health England last year that called fluoride a “safe and effective” way of improving dental health.

According to a study of 98 percent of GP practices in England, high rates of underactive thyroid were 30 percent more likely in areas of the greatest fluoridation. The Telegraph reports that up to 15,000 people are needlessly experiencing thyroid problems, which include depression, weight gain, pain, and fatigue.

Hopefully this will lead to further testing. It seems like a few commentators online are quite happy trading thyroid function for enamel :(. A few experts have come out against the methodology, but others have said there is enough data that you don't have to try and tease out the cofounders, and while this study is not conclusive, it does raise a major red flag.

I suppose it's very relevant this was done in the GP, where we drink a lot of tea. Well I don't, because I'm not interested in fluoride infusions to be honest.
