Thread: alzheimer's and aluminum

James.

Hehe, we use that stuff in the UK too!

I did a search at PubMed on this very topic a few months ago when I got an alum block from Francisco.

Current data and longitudinal studies indicate there is no correlation between Aluminum and Alzheimer's disease.

Use alum blocks all you want, use aluminum cookwear, eat the pull tabs from your beercans. You won't get Alzheimer's.

Alum's been about for centuries and is still used a lot -- if there really was a risk I'm sure the med journals would have been full of articles by now.

There's more danger from making fun of American spelling variations.

Unless of course the testers keep forgetting to report their findings

I have read that vaccines may be the culprit.Especially, since elderly are always getting flu shots.Who knows for sure though.

and who funds the medical journals? the pharmaceutical companies. and who is on the boards that decide what aritcles to print in those journals? the pharmaceutical companies CEO's. watch the movie Food Matters, it is very informative and all true. no conspiracy here i swear. there are natural cures for everything.

TRUE. If you eat right you can avoid a lot of things.But TV and the pharmaceutical companies don't want us to know that.Look at all of the drug commercials on TV. It makes you wonder.

I use something called naturally fresh deodorant crystal. it says natural mineral salts / potassium alum and aloe Vera fragrance free and no harmful aluminum's. Works great for me. comes in a roll on container. you can get it at GNC

I cook in cast iron and stainless steel, don't use alum blocks so I don't have to worry about aluminum associated Alzheimer's malease, but am increasingly convinced that I must be in the early stages of non-Alzheimer's dementia or CRS. Writing reminders to self works only so long as one remembers where those lists have been placed or where one put the pencil and figuring out who stole the scratch pad.

(did I just strop that razor or is it placed there by the strop to be stropped or is it just there because it looks good?)

My wife picked up some bubble bee deodorant. It claims to be all organic and contains no aluminum.
