Perlite

And so again, with my, "Hey, like, is this data good? Who paid for it?" You know? That's the whole thing.

The whole Perlite study where perlite.org had this study that was like, "Oh, it, it's not a problem with the fluoride, blah, blah, blah." And then there were a bunch of things that were like, "Yeah, actually it can be." And I'm like, "I'm not gonna trust perlite.org paying for a study that says this thing.

I don't trust it." You know? It might be true, but unless other sources that are completely independent say this as well, I'm not gonna trust it.

And since then, I have uncovered more things, and it's still kind of back and forth a bit.
