As early as 1950s, studies have shown that fluorite dust has an impact on workers' health and may cause pneumoconiosis and other diseases. However, the impact of fluorite on the health of ordinary people has not been clearly confirmed.
Some studies have found that long-term exposure to fluorite will increase the risk of human osteoporosis, but these results still need further verification. In addition, because fluorite contains fluorine, excessive intake of fluorine may lead to bone diseases, dental fluorosis and other problems.
In short, whether fluorite causes cancer needs further study and confirmation. Ordinary people should pay attention to protective measures to avoid long-term contact and excessive intake of fluorite.
