<< It is fact that the brains of Alzheimer's patients have an elevated level of aluminum in them. It is unclear whether aluminum in the brain causes Alzheimers, or if the disease causes accumulation of aluminum in the brain. Also it is unclear how the aluminum gets in the brain, since I believe it is supposed to be stopped by the blood brain barrier. Since there is a great deal of aluminum and aluminum compounds around us and in the soil, there is likely some other unidentified mechanism at work. One of the latest things I read was that it could actually be caused by a prion. Marshall >> HI Marshall and all; I have avoided aluminum ever since it was linked to Alzheimer's, (a family problem). Just recently I read where they are now convinced it does not cause Alzheimer's, but Alzheimer's allows it into the brain. FWIW But I will still avoid aluminum like the plague.
