Theres an alcohol for everybody nowadays: shandys, ciders, hard rootbeer, hard ginger ale, stouts, ales, IPAs, hefe's, fruity beers, malt liquor etc...
i have to admit, blueberries is kinda weird.

Harvard Study Confirms Fluoride Reduces Children's IQ
A recently-published Harvard University meta-analysis funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has concluded that children who live in areas with highly fluoridated water have "significantly lower" IQ scores than those who live in low fluoride areas.
In a 32-page report that can be downloaded free of charge from Environmental Health Perspectives, the researchers said:
A recent report from the U.S. National Research Council (NRC 2006) concluded that adverse effects of high fluoride concentrations in drinking water may be of concern and that additional research is warranted. Fluoride may cause neurotoxicity in laboratory animals, including effects on learning and memory ...
To summarize the available literature, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies on increased fluoride exposure in drinking water and neurodevelopmental delays. We specifically targeted studies carried out in rural China that have not been widely disseminated, thus complementing the studies that have been included in previous reviews and risk assessment reports ...
Findings from our meta-analyses of 27 studies published over 22 years suggest an inverse association between high fluoride exposure and children's intelligence ... The results suggest that fluoride may be a developmental neurotoxicant that affects brain development at exposures much below those that can cause toxicity in adults ...
Studies Have Repeatedly Linked Fluoride to Reduced IQ and Brain Damage
Reported effects of fluoride on your brain include:
• Reduction in nicotinic acetylcholine receptors • Damage to your hippocampus • Formation of beta-amyloid plaques (the classic brain abnormality in Alzheimer's disease) • Reduction in lipid content • Damage to purkinje cells • Exacerbation of lesions induced by iodine deficiency • Impaired antioxidant defense systems • Increased uptake of aluminum • Accumulation of fluoride in your pineal gland

Harvard Professor: Fluoride Toxic to Children, Linked to Autism
Fluoride joined the likes of lead, arsenic, methylmercury, toluene and other chemicals known to damage brain tissue.
In the March 2014 journal Lancet Neurology, the highly prevalent chemical was reclassified as a developmental neurotoxin by medical authorities.
The authors, Dr. Philippe Grandjean of the Harvard School of Public Health and Dr. Philip Landrigan of the Icahn School of Medicine write, “A meta-analysis of 27 cross-sectional studies of children exposed to fluoride in drinking water, mainly from China, suggests an average IQ decrement of about seven points in children exposed to raised fluoride concentrations.”
The majority of these 27 studies had water fluoride levels of less than four milligrams per liter, which falls under the allowable level set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Developmental neurotoxins, which are capable of causing widespread brain disorders such as autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and learning disabilities, often cause untreatable and permanent damage.
Grandjean and Landrigan write, “Our very great concern is that children worldwide are being exposed to unrecognized toxic chemicals that are silently eroding intelligence, disrupting behaviors, truncating future achievements and damaging societies, perhaps most seriously in developing countries.”
The CDC’s own evidence reveals Americans already show symptoms of fluoride-overexposure and reports that 41 percent of American teenagers have dental fluorosis, a physical sign that they ingested too much fluoride while their teeth were forming. Evidence also indicates these markers in the U.S. are not decreasing over time, but are increasing.
43 human studies finding reduced IQ from fluoride exposure
http://fluoridealert.org/studies/brain01/
As of February 2015, a total of 50 studies have investigated the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence, and a total of 34 studies have investigated the relationship fluoride and learning/memory in animals. Of these investigations, 43 of the 50 human studies have found that elevated fluoride exposure is associated with reduced IQ, while 32 of the 34 animal studies have found that fluoride exposure impairs the learning and/or memory capacity of animals. The human studies, which are based on IQ examinations of over 11,000 children, provide compelling evidence that fluoride exposure during the early years of life can damage a child’s developing brain.

“In agreement with other studies elsewhere, these findings indicate that children drinking high F water are at risk for impaired development of intelligence.”
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:
“In conclusion, our study suggested that low levels of fluoride exposure in drinking water had negative effects on children’s intelligence and dental health and confirmed the dose-response relationships between urine fluoride and IQ scores as well as dental fluorosis.”
“The study found that children residing in a region with a high drinking water F level had lower IQs compared to children living in a low drinking water F region (p<0.001). The differences could not be attributed to confounding educational, economic, social, cultural, and general demographic factors.”
“We observed reduced AChE activity in [the high fluoride area] which may be directly correlate[d] with the reduced intelligence score of the subjects.”
" Children had a higher risk for cognitive impairments after fluoride exposure. Additionally, proteomics analysis represents early specific markers of developmental fluoride neurotoxicity."
"“Results of our field study raise a concern about the safety of elevated systemic exposure to fluoride from high concentrations in the drinking water. "
"systemic exposure impairs children’s neurodevelopment especially during the highly vulnerable windows of brain development in utero and during infancy and childhood and may result in permanent brain injury."
" lower IQ in a greater number of children from high F village than in the low F village"
"indicated toward decreased Intelligence in children exposed to high levels of fluoride "
"“High exposure to fluoride most definitely has an adverse effect on the development of intelligence in children, in particular on the capability of abstract inference.”
"fluoride in water, were significantly correlated with IQ, Fluoride’s effect on IQ was larger than the effect from arsenic "
“This study indicates that exposure to fluoride in drinking water is associated with neurotoxic effects in children.”
“In agreement with other studies elsewhere, these findings indicate that children drinking high F water are at risk for impaired development of intelligence.”
“Exposure to high levels of fluoride is likely to cause a certain level of harm to a child’s level of intelligence.”
““Based on the findings of this study, exposure of children to high levels of fluoride may carry the risk of impaired development of intelligence.”
“High fluoride burden has a definite effect on the intellectual and physical development of children.”

It's hilarious how everyone gives you shit for not using sources then when you start posting them all they pretty much get ignored people seem much more comfortable believeving what they want to and staying in blissful ignorance...
-------------------- Don't worry about me, I've got all that I need. And I'm singing my song to the sky You know how it feels, With the breeze of the sun in your eyes. Not minding that time's passing by I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

Ehh, Guiness is the PBR of dark beer, it won't be missed. But this is still sketch. I swear we are only a few years away from them printing adds on our beer cans.
