Aluminum

Aluminum is a popular metal used in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals to cookware. Aluminum salts are soluble in water and are, therefore, easily assimilated into the body. Unwanted aluminum is deposited in the brain and nervous system tissues, and will continue to accumulate there. It is commonly known that aluminum is related to Alzheimer's disease.

Aluminum toxicity is sometimes elevated in children and adults with low zinc and behavior/learning disorders such as ADD, ADHD, and autism. High levels of aluminum are found in many colloidal mineral products. Aluminum is commonly found in the products below:
