ALUMINUM

Natural occurring water contains from 0.1 ppm up to 9.0 ppm of Aluminum, however the primary source of Aluminum in drinking water comes from the use of man made aluminum sulfate (alum) as a coagulant in water treatment plants.

The total dietary exposure to aluminum salts averages around 20 mg/day. Aluminum is on the US EPA’s Secondary Drinking Water Standards list with suggested levels of 0.05 – 0.2 mg/l;

MSG

The amino acid glutamate, as found in monosodium glutamate (MSG), also increases aluminum absorption and deposition in the brain.  MSG is added to most processed foods, usually under  disguised names such as hydrolyzed protein, soy extract, natural flavoring or even spices.  As with fluoride, glutamate is even more destructive to brain cells when combined with aluminum.

REDUCE ALUMINUM IN THE BRAIN

With certain supplements you can reduce your brain load of aluminum yourself.  They also have been shown to significantly lower brain aluminum.

Magnesum citramate. Magnesium reduces brain levels of mercury and the citramate, a combination of citrate and malate, has been shown to significantly stimulate elimination of aluminum from the body.

Ascorbate (as magnesium or calcium ascorbate). A study found ascorbate to be a very effective chelator ofaluminum, especially when the aluminum was bound to brain cell DNA. Taking higher doses of ascorbate with the magnesium citramate increased the removal of aluminum even more.

Malate. Malate was shown to be one of the more effective aluminum chelators for the brain.

Pyruvate (as calcium pyruvate). Pyruvate has been shown to effectively prevent aluminum absorption.

Flavonoids. Eat a lot of fresh vegetables. Supplements containing flavonoids, such as quercetin and hesperidin, also prevent aluminum absorption.

Chlorella helps remove mercury and lead and may remove aluminum.

These supplements are in addition to the antioxidant vitamins you normally take.

ALUMINUM AND FLUORIDE

Even small amounts of aluminum  when combined with Fluoride, produces dramatic destruction of the same brain cells that are destroyed in Alzheimer’s disease.  In fact, as little as 0.5 ppm (parts per million) fluoride added to aluminum in water was found to produce extensive brain cell loss in the hippocampus, the memory part of the brain.  The vast majority of public water utilities add 1 to 1.5 ppm fluoride and all add aluminum.

ALUMINUM AND MSG

The amino acid glutamate, as found in monosodium glutamate (MSG), also ncreases aluminum absorption and deposition in the brain.   MSG is added to most processed foods, usually under  disguised names such as hydrolyzed protein, soy extract, of super disguised as natural flavoring or spices.  As with fluoride, glutamate is even more destructive to brain cells when combined with aluminum.
