[Al] can end up ailin' ya

"One of the many nutritional factors contributing to the pathology of Alzheimer’s is excess aluminum in the brain. How does it get there? We have laced our lives with it. Prolonged cooking of acidic tomato sauce in an aluminum pot, aluminum cans of food, soda and beer, factory effluents, aluminum absorbed from under arm deodorants, aluminum in baking powder, salt (yes, check the labels, that’s what makes it pours when it rains), antacids and as an antiflocculant in drinking water are just a few of the sources. Some of the highest levels are found in patients with ulcer and stomach problems who have ingested over-the-counter aluminum-containing antacids for years {Tuh tuh-tuh-tuh tums}.

"We recommend that you eliminate the symptoms by eliminating as many of the causes as possible from your life. Aluminum is clearly not good for us to have in our bodies."

And drop that Teflon like it's hot, too.
