Freedom of Information replies by Health Canada in 2014 and by Public Heath England in 2018. Requests were made for high quality proof that swallowed fluoride is safe to drink.
Health Canada confirmed it has no toxicology studies on HFSA, no double-blind randomized clinical trials of fluoridation, etc.
