Why New Jersey Should Have Fluoride in Its Water

Feldman of Rutgers School of Dental Medicine explains how fluoride in drinking water is key to preventing dental disease and as well as the need for change in the Garden State, where only 15 percent of residents live in towns with fluoridated water.

“What was initially a distraction spun into a passion … I rode my bike with my mother once; believe me, there is nothing more disheartening than being trash-talked by one’s own mom as she huffs by you on a hill. Pedaling through her 70s, she explored steep mountain roads and new towns. She entered 100-mile races, changed flats and downed electrolytes on the go.

“My mother became more fit, more social and more emotionally expressive than I’d ever seen her.”
