A large amount of scientific data has been showing that aluminum has neurotoxic effect and chronic exposure to it has been linked to neurological problems like autism, dementia, and Parkinson’s. Sadly, due to insufficient longitudinal studies, there is no scientific proof that would make industries pull out aluminum from their products. However, little room is left to doubt of the toxicity of aluminum.
The Connection between Aluminum & Alzheimer’s
According to a recent case study done by the Keele University in the UK, there were high amounts of aluminum found in the brain of a person who has been exposed to aluminum at work and later died as a result of Alzheimer’s. At the age of 66, this Caucasian man developed an aggressive type of early onset Alzheimer’s after 8 years of being exposed to aluminum dust.
However, this is not the first time that high levels of aluminum have been found in tissues of people dead from Alzheimer’s. Namely, back in 2004, they were discovered in the tissues of a woman from Britain who also from early-onset Alzheimer’s. This happened sixteen years after an industrial dumping of 20 metric tons of aluminum sulphate into the local drinking water. Other studies also found increased aluminum levels in living people with wide range of neurological signs.
