Analyzing Fluoride Concentration in Drinking Water Sources in the Alkharj Region of Saudi Arabia and Its Public Health Implications
The results indicate that the fluoride levels in all sampled water sources in various drinking water sources in the Alkharj region of Saudi Arabia are below the WHO recommended guideline of 1.5 mg/L, with significant variability observed across different sources. National bottled water had the highest average fluoride concentration, followed by borewell water, with municipal water having the lowest levels.
