Myths and Realities: Understanding Fluoride with Karin G Reiter

Wellness Warrior Podcast

In this eye-opening episode of the Wellness Warrior Podcast, host Lindsaya is joined by Karin G Reiter, a functional medicine nutritionist and founder of Nutritious N’ Delicious, to explore the effects of fluoride on health and wellness. Karin shares her personal journey navigating autoimmune diseases and how it led her to functional medicine. Together, they break down the science behind fluoride, its impact on the thyroid and brain development, and its role as an endocrine disruptor. They also discuss actionable ways to reduce fluoride exposure and empower listeners with knowledge to make informed decisions about water quality, nutrition, and overall health.
