Can drinking from aluminum cans be bad for your health?

Probably not.

A common rumor that began circulating stated that aluminum caused alzheimer's disease.

This originally came from a study that seemed to show that there was a slightly greater amount of aluminum in the autopsied brains of alzheimer patients than other subjects.

Studies since then have showed no correlation to aluminum intake to alzheimer's disease, or, in fact any disease.

the poster who wrote the above answer is either an obvious shill or plain ignorant. Theres been a LOT of studies that , no, they didnt SEEM to indicate as the above shill poses, but they PROVED CONCLUSIVELY that increased aluminum levels directly coorelated with alzheimers.

On this page is a study of how higher levels of aluminum in drinking water coorelated to higher incidents of alzheimers. http://www.nogw.com/aluminum.HTML

When you pop the top of an aluminum can there are billions of micro-particulates of aluminum that break away like when you snap a cracker in half. You cant see the micro-particulates of aluminum but you do injest them. Whether they are small enough to enter the bloodstream and make their way to the brain, i don't know, but my common sense tells me yes, and perhaps the larger chunks (larger relative to what would be found per-molocule in drinking water) could do even worse damage in the brain?

The newer coorelation is with Mad Cow disease which they are 'calling' alzheimers to try and keep the numbers low so the beef market isn't 'harmed' (actually the beef market tycoons).

Also the chemtrails are purportedly containing very high concentrations of aluminum.

google: aluminum alzheimers - and theres 511,000 hits. does that sound like a "rumor"?

check the above posters last statement:

"Studies since then have showed no correlation to aluminum intake to alzheimer's disease, or, in fact any disease."

My guess is that he works for or profits by the aluminum industry somehow. Think about it. Ill bet he even wrote the question.
