Yeah that’s #1 bullshit. DHT is a sex steroid and hormone that defines the male genitalia during the embryonic development. It builds out the entire male reproductive system right down to pubic hair.
Steroids always affect testosterone and that mostly affects men because they carry substantially more. So that’s sort of a clue in what area they target.
Creativity and “intelligence” are entirely abstract, human concepts. There is no one mechanism that governs them let alone a single hormone for that matter.
Also, just want to point out that our ancestors had literally perfect teeth. Perfect. Crooked and fucked up teeth is a modern infliction (no one really knows why). So just sayin.
I would adore to see your sources on this
This isn't some occult knowledge, a simple search will show many results concuring but here is one source:
Aye I suppose a lot would be explained by the fact that the skulls they find are likely to be people who died in their 20s and 30s, as was the fashion back then
Cheers. It’s wild people still prefer to believe that fluoride makes them dumber and less creative lol.
What an absolute dumpster fire 🤪
So your argument is to return to pre-agricultural life in order to not have fluoride in our water supply?
I didn't make any argument whatsoever, just provided a source.
Happy adoring I guess
