I've had people anecdotally tell me that relatives got Alzheimers and they thought Aluminum was the cause. If this is testable then test it.

A world authority on the link between human exposure to aluminium in
everyday life and its likely contribution to Alzheimer’s disease,
Professor Christopher Exley of Keele University, UK, says in a new
report that it may be inevitable that aluminium plays some role in the
disease.
He says the human brain is both a target and a sink for aluminium on
entry into the body – “the presence of aluminium in the human brain
should be a red flag alerting us all to the potential dangers of the
aluminium age. We are all accumulating a known neurotoxin in our brain
from our conception to our death. Why do we treat this inevitability
with almost total complacency?”
Exley, Professor in Bioinorganic Chemistry, Aluminium and Silicon
Research Group in The Birchall Centre, Lennard-Jones Laboratories at
Keele University, writes in Frontiers in Neurology about the ‘Aluminium
Age’ and its role in the ‘contamination’ of humans by aluminium.
He says a burgeoning body burden of aluminium is an inevitable
consequence of modern living and this can be thought of as
‘contamination’, as the aluminium in our bodies is of no benefit to us
it can only be benign or toxic.
Professor Exley says: “The biological availability of aluminium or
the ease with which aluminium reacts with human biochemistry means that
aluminium in the body is unlikely to be benign, though it may appear as
such due to the inherent robustness of human physiology. The question is
raised as to ‘how do you know if you are suffering from chronic
aluminium toxicity?’ How do we know that Alzheimer’s disease is not the
manifestation of chronic aluminium toxicity in humans?
“At some point in time the accumulation of aluminium in the brain
will achieve a toxic threshold and a specific neurone or area of the
brain will stop coping with the presence of aluminium and will start
reacting to its presence. If the same neurone or brain tissue is also
suffering other insults, or another on-going degenerative condition,
then the additional response to aluminium will exacerbate these effects.
In this way aluminium may cause a particular condition to be more
aggressive and perhaps to have an earlier onset - such occurrences have
already been shown in Alzheimer’s disease related to environmental and
occupational exposure to aluminium.”
Professor Exley argues that the accumulation of aluminium in the
brain inevitably leads to it contributing negatively to brain physiology
and therefore exacerbating on-going conditions such as Alzheimer’s
disease. He suggests that this is a testable hypothesis and offers a
non-invasive method of the removal of aluminium from the body and the
brain. He says the aluminium hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease will only
be tested if we are able to lower the body and hence brain burden of
aluminium and determine if such has any impact upon the incidence, onset
or aggressiveness of Alzheimer’s disease.
Professor Exley adds: “There are neither cures nor effective
treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. The role of aluminium in Alzheimer’s
disease can be prevented by reducing human exposure to aluminium and by
removing aluminium from the body by non-invasive means. Why are we
choosing to miss out on this opportunity? Surely the time has come to
test the aluminium hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease once and for all?”

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,987 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
