How
safe is your family and the products
you use every day? Do you have any family members with Alzheimer's or
Parkinson's
disease? Did you know that Alzheimer's disease is now the seventh
leading cause of deaths in the USA! What you read below may surprise
and dismay you.
Many scientific resources as well as a leading
Indian scientific authority warns that the use of aluminum cookware may
contribute significantly to the development of Alzheimer's disease and
other nervous disorders. Toxic levels of aluminum have also been associated
with Parkinson's disease, various dementia's and bone diseases.
Two beloved icons, Mohammad Ali and Michael J Fox
both battle Parkinson's disease daily.
Sixty percent of patients admitted to nursing
homes have Alzheimer's, and the number of Alzheimer's victims is projected
to increase as much as eight-fold by the middle of the next century.
Sources of Aluminum.
Remove these from your life!
Cookware:
Aluminum cookware is now acknowledged as a very
bad choice for cooking food in. Throw out your aluminum cookware asap.
Anodized metal is also coated aluminum. Glass cookware is best, but if
you use metal cookware, choose either stainless steel or cast iron. Most
teflon coated pans are aluminum based but there are now stainless steel
pans with non-stick surfaces. However, there are controversies about the
health affects of non-stick materials and so, to be on the safe side, these
should also be avoided.
TIP:
When purchasing cookware, take a magnet with
you to the store to help identify steel cookware.
Metal Cleaners such as Ezy bright contain aluminum
oxide 10-30%
Medications:
Aluminum is present in many popular over the
counter and prescription medicines such as antacids, pain-killers and anti-diarrhea
medicines.
Antacids can contain 200 milligrams or more of
elemental aluminum in a single tablet - ten times more than the allegedly
acceptable 20 milligrams per day. A very popular antacid, Amphojel, consists
of aluminum hydroxide.
Food:
Aluminum is added as an emulsifying agent in
many processed cheeses, especially those which are single sliced. It is
found in cake mixes, self-rising flour, prepared doughs, nondairy creamers,
pickles and in some brands of baking powder.
Additives: The following additives contain aluminum
compounds - E173, E520, E521, E523 E541, E545, E554, E555 E556, E559, bauxite
(Aluminum dioxide)
Baking powder: Some brands contain aluminum.
Cake mixes can contain various forms of aluminum.
Cheese: Especially single sliced processed cheese
which can contain aluminum as an emulsifier.
Chocolate Mixes: Highly absorbable aluminum maltol
is used in instant chocolate mixes.
Coffee Whiteners: Like Coffee-mate - Sodium Aluminosilicate.
Doughs: Some ready made doughs can contain it.
Flour: Self rising flour may contain aluminum.
Pickles can contain aluminum.

Body Care Products:
Aluminum lauryl sulfate is a common ingredient
in many shampoos, while several anti dandruff shampoos, including Selsun-Blue,
contain magnesium aluminum silicate. Aluminum is an active ingredient in
most antiperspirants (aluminum chlorhydrate).
Shampoos: Aluminum lauryl sulfate.
Anti dandruff shampoos, including Selsun-Blue,
contain magnesium aluminum silicate.
Toothpastes: Can contain bauxite (Aluminum dioxide)
or aluminum salts and it may not be listed in the ingredients.
Tooth whitening products also may contain aluminum.
Antiperspirants: can contain aluminum chlorhydrate.
Colgate-Palmolive products do contain aluminum
zirconium.
Drinking Water:
Drinking water in many countries contains high
levels of aluminim. Flouride added to drinking water becomes a deadly cocktail.
Fluoride has been observed to have synergistic effects on the toxicity
of aluminum. Fluoride appears to allow aluminum to penetrate the blood-brain
barrier.
Protection:
Aluminum is more likely to accumulate in the
brains of people who are magnesium deficient. This includes a large percentage
of Americans. Aluminum inactivates an enzyme that protects nerve cells.
Malic acid can pull aluminum away from this enzyme, making a place for
magnesium. Take Magnesium Malate or Magnesium with Malic Acid found abundantly
in fruits such as apples. This may possibly create protection against Alzheimer's
Disease.
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease are also seriously linked to chemtrails,
vaccinations and pesticides.
