IQ of Iranians v/s East Asians:-

As shown in my previous blog that IQ as per TIMMS or PISA for mid-East is 89 IQ. And mid-East is facing several fluoride contamination in ground water, in excess to rest of the world combined. As mentioned and cited that Iran and Saudi Arabia are the worst victims of fluoride contamination in water.

Let me show you the IQ data samples on Iranian population (in optimum living conditions). It will help me show the exact calculations for the geno-typic IQs. Let's calculate what is the average IQ of Iran if it had optimum conditions at par with East Asia.

Both nations do not face mal-nourishment or iodine deficiencies. Yes, there is mild iodine deficiencies in East Asia and Iran, but they are at par on the iodine status. So fluoride contamination in water is the major stuff (out of 3 main IQ decreasing issues) separating Iranians and Chinese. Yes, lead and arsenic also decrease the IQ but only a handful of nations face such problems.

The mean fluoride concentration in Iran is between 2 to 2.5 ppm in cities and 2.4 to 2.8 ppm in rural areas. Large sample sizes.

What are the results:-

1. West Azerbaijan:- High F (3.94 ppm): IQ of 81, Low F (0.25 ppm): IQ of 104.
2. Makoo:- High F (5.2 ppm): IQ of 88, medium F (3.1 ppm): 89, Low F (0.8 ppm): IQ of 97.7.
3. Kerman:- High F (2.38 ppm): 91.37 ,Low F (0.41 ppm): IQ of 97.8.
4. Iran:- High F (2.5 ppm): IQ of 87.9, Low F (0.4 ppm): IQ of 98.9.


Clearly as you can see that Iranian IQ is converging towards 97-104 in low F regions.

In regions where medium fluoride concentration is 2.5 ppm, IQ is somewhat close to 90 as evident in the articles above, which is the current IQ of Iran as fluoride concentration in Iran is around 2.5 ppm. Average IQ in Iran is likely to shoot up to 97-104 once fluoride contamination in water is removed. And already many regions in Iran show 97-104 IQs.

As shown in my other blog on China, Chinese also score extremely low in high Fluoride regions (<80 as well). Average of China is 95 v/s 90 for Iran as there is lesser fluoride contamination and not because of "evolution or racial supremacy, etc., etc."

Now it is evident that people in mid-East have IQs at par with any other major regions in the world and there are IQ samples covering the same.

If IQ comparison across nations are to be done, it has to be done in identical conditions like showing samples on properly bred children or regions having equal fluoride contamination or equivalent iodine deficiencies or same conditions. Else, IQ reports from multi-racial societies where both ethnicities are living identically.

Not by citing a result of a website on one nation to IQ reports on illiterate tribes in another like how Lynn has done in his book. Just by citing any set of available IQ samples. And calculating average IQs like a Grade 6 student.

Anyone can publish "cherry picked IQ samples" on any nation and come to any conclusions and write a book showing IQ of 80 in East Asia and 105 in Iran, and cite up to 30 articles. There are IQ reports showing different averages in each nation.
