WHO guidelines for 1.5mg/L fluoride

https://web.archive.org/web/20110707103002/http://www.who.int/water_sanitation_health/publications/2011/dwq_guidelines/en/#%3A~%3Atext=This+fourth+edition+of+the+World+Health+Organization’s%2Cfor+water+safety+in+support+of+public+health.

Upper limit of 10mg/day (considered to be high by some bodies)

https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/nutrient-reference-values/nutrients/fluoride-updated-2017

Basic bath: only considering water intake, consuming 6-7 liters in a day (regular occurance working in Australia) puts you over the upper limit without considering major sources like diet, tea and dental products and treatments.

Plants are vulnerable to fluoride accumulation in soil, and their growth and development can be negatively affected, even with low fluoride content in the soil.
