Unavoidable Dangers

Not only do we use it in all sorts of products, but acid rain and chemtrails also play a part in presenting the metal in forms that we can ingest. Acid rain breaks down aluminum in the earth which then runs off into our water supplies. It then contaminates the seafood. It’s in cigarette smoke so we breathe it in as well.

Effects On Your Body

Once ingested, aluminum accumulates in various tissues in the body, including the kidneys, brain, lungs, liver and thyroid. Aluminum competes with calcium for absorption and it can result in reduced skeletal mineralization. In infants this retards growth. It also interferes with phosphorous absorption, zinc and selenium.

Eating foods cooked in aluminum cookware can cause an inflamed colon. Consuming antacids that include the toxin aluminum hydroxide, distresses the digestive system to the point of disrupting healthy bowel function.

Aluminum Toxicity Dangers

Remember that living cells make no good use of aluminum. Aluminum can make you very ill. Some people are allergic to aluminum and will develop a skin rash (contact dermatitis).

  • Malfunction of the Blood-Brain Barrier
  • Stomach & Intestinal Ulcers
  • Gastrointestinal Disease
  • Parkinson’s Disease
  • Skin Problems
  • Hyperactivity
  • Mental Retardation in Infants
  • Learning Disorders in Children
  • Liver Disease
  • Headaches
  • Heartburn
  • Nausea
  • Constipation
  • Colicky Pain
  • Lack of Energy
  • Flatulence

Alternatives to Aluminum

There are alternatives to cooking with aluminum. There are choices for different cookware, such as glass. There are organic supplements that reduce the impact of acid indigestion. A healthy diet of organic foods, grown in areas where the pesticides are not poisonous is a good practice. You can grow your own food in areas where the toxins are relatively minor.

Since there is really no way to be 100% aluminum free, it’s best to measure and remove them from your body. The Aluminum Heavy Metal Test kit is a simple at home test that you can perform to see if your levels are within safe parameters. If they aren’t, then you can try Dr. Group’s Heavy Metal Cleanse, which can help you remove these poisons from your tissue. The goal is to flush them before they have time to do serious damage to your body.
