Just in case you thought it was all sorted about aluminium -

Anyone who eats bread is eating food that's been baked in high temperature aluminium!

Unless a person has a particular susceptibiliy to it, I think aluminium is only to be avoided when cooking acidic foods which react with the metal to form an aluminium salt dissolved in the food - examples being jam-making, tomato sauces, fruit puddings etc.

Unless one is notably susceptible, it seems fine to me to eat food that's ph neutral or alkaline that has been cooked in aluminium vessels, since the aluminium won't have formed salts which dissolve into the food. The worry about radiation from hot aluminium into the food is only applicable to those who are ultra-sensitive.

There are many toxins in our environment, and as healthy creatures we have the mechanisms in our bodies to deal with small levels of most of them.

I wonder what they cooked over flames with in the old days, before high teck cookware? But are you saying non-stick is all right just dont use, say tomato sauce? Do they react when their cold too? LindaM.

Anna, I have to agree on the point of suseptibility! One could go mad trying to find out everything that contains Aluminum, and then trying to find out if it is in dangerous form!

I do wonder, though - if one has a family history of Alzeheimers - if this means that one is automatically suseptible?

Does anyone know? Thanks....chop chop 007

If you have a family history of Alzheimers ........YES YES YES you too are vulnerable

Aluminium only came into use after World War 2 ..............and why oh why do you think we now have an explosion of Alzheimers ???????????????????

I agree you could go mad worrying about what every tiny thing is cooked in

But if anyone out there has A CURE for the sensitive ones amongst us lets hear it

I am totally healthy now .......Provided I avoid Aluminium and Yes I found out 2 years after I got well that my Father had died from Alzheimers

Pat: Since I'm a candidate I worry about aluminum. Do you know of any water purifying system that takes out aluminum from water?

You've been talking about cooking and aluminum. What about aluminum cans that pop or sardines come in. Is there any danger there?

I appreciate your deep concern for this problem that so few are aware of and the fact that you are always working to enlighten others about it. Thanks!

Hi, GM said a ceramic filter for the water system. A few of us were discussing it a little in A General Question, LindaM.

Dear Pat, the cure to lessen susceptibility by strengthening your own vitality, is always the constitutional remedy in homoeopathy. This means that there isn't a single remedy that's the same for everyone with aluminium susceptibility. It depends on your personl constitution.
Like others I appreciate your expertise in the subject of almuinium poisoning and your generosity in sharing it.

What about the Aluminum in Deoderants/Anti-perspirants??
I've always wondered about that....being that Aluminum is thee smallest molecule of all the elements.
What does one do for stinky pits if those "natural" deoderants don't do the trick? Or isn't the Aluminum in that a big concern?
And gosh, I cook on Aluminum foil all the time cuz I'm too lazy to keep washing those pans. No wonder my mind is going.....

I'm Laughing here, Zmyst, as I gave up anti-perspirants not that long ago! It wasn't easy - as I had used them since way back . But, I don't now, and I do have smelly armpits if I sweat a lot (like gardening) - nothing like a good sweat to get the cr*p out of your system . But, I suppose I was suppressing the sweat for so long, it will take some time . In the meantime, I have been using a deodorant, and it seems fine when I am doing normal activities....so go ahead - but be prepared to be a bit smelly when you get active .

I would also like to know what Pat has to say on this, about the Aluminum - and if it is a problem along with suppressing sweat!

Aluminium sardine cans, drink cans, foil, aluminium in the water supply

I avoid the lot

As for antiperspirants do not use them AND I DO NOT SMELL ........if you do not supppress the system you do not contain toxins so you do not have an inbalance of bacteria on the skin and you do not smell ......after a hot day in the garden i dive in the bath anyway

If my constitutional remedy stopped me from being affected by Aluminiun I would be delighted ........but it does not

The Homeopath who treated me had treated thousands of others and she herself was Aluminium sensitive and even more sensitive than I am ......Dr Foubister was her doctor and teacher and mentor

All toxins exit the body via left armpit and breast ........use antiperspirants ....block the armpits ....Why do you think Breast Cancer is virtually always LEFT BREAST and has recently been linked to Aluminium

IBS, bowell cancer are just 2 more problems linked too .......Do not undersestimate the power of this insidious poison
