Proof Tony's Frozen Pizza Causes Alzheimer's Disease
http://www.tonys.com/

Tony's pizza has artificial cheese on it that contains "sodium aluminum
phosphate" which causes Alzheimer's disease. Buy frozen pizza with REAL
CHEESE. Tony's Pizza used to have real cheese on it until the company was
purchased by The Schwan food company.

Call them on the phone and tell them when they start using REAL cheese
instead of "mozzarella cheese substitute" you will buy their pizza.
Call 1-888-465-8324 and complain. If they ask you where you purchased your
Pizza tell them "Save A Lot" and give them the bar code number of 72180 -
74875.

Supplements purchased at a health food store do NOT contain aluminum but
other supplements purchased in a drug store may have.

Also salt sold at Aldies grocery store chain has "sodium aluminate" in it so
it also causes Alzheimer's disease. Buy Morton salt which does not contain
aluminum.

Can The Aluminum

If you phone the FDA they will tell you that aluminum is not toxic in the
amounts found in American food and water. This is the same government agency
that told you that the lead in your drinking water was "harmless", until the
Clean Drinking Water Act Amendment in 1986, which outlawed all new lead
pipes and lead contaminated substances in the water supply. All recognized
authorities on lead toxicity had been calling for removal of lead water
pipes since the 1960s because of the clear evidence that even small amounts
of lead cause irreversible brain degeneration. But it took until 1986 and a
new law before the FDA changed its tune. Now we are in the same position
with aluminum that we were with lead 20 years ago. The silver metal is well
entrenched in and around our food and water. Meanwhile, scientists who have
measured the toxic effects of aluminum on brains and bones, are campaigning
for its total removal from the food chain.

Evidence that aluminum can cause brain degeneration began to surface in the
late '70s. At the University of Toronto, Dr D.B. Crapper and colleagues,
showed that aluminum given to cats turned them into idiots. Examination of
the cats' brains after death found destroyed areas filled with what are
called neurofibrillaiy tangles. These areas showed high concentrations of
aluminum (12 mcg/gr am), the same level of aluminum found in destroyed areas
of the brains of some victims of Alzheimers disease.

Also in the '70s, other evidence began to accumulate showing that even small
amounts of aluminum interfere with the metabolism of the essential minerals
fluoride and phosphorus. Over a long period this toxic effect results in
loss of minerals from the bones and osteomalacia (soft bone disease) and
osteoporosis (fragile bone disease). Crunch time for aluminum came in 1979.
Groups of dialysis patients given aluminum salts to reduce high phosphate
levels, all went raving mad and lost so much essential minerals that their
bones snapped like toothpicks. No athlete can afford weak bones.

Aluminum was hastily and quietly removed from dialysis fluids. But the
problems persisted, because aluminum continued to be given by mouth in
antacids and other medications. Until the early '80s, it was still widely
believed that oral aluminum could not be absorbed and was harmlessly
excreted. Only after hundreds more patients had been turned into permanent
lunatics, did the medical profession finally accept that oral aluminum is
readily absorbed. And when kidney function is reduced, as in rain dialysis
patients, the body can't get rid of it. So in a very short time, the brain
retires to la-la land.

So what, you say? My kidneys are fine. Doubt if it will save you. Any big
jolt of aluminum will overwhelm the kidneys' capacity to excrete it, and
start depositing permanently in your brain and bones. In the New England
Journal of Medicine on 21 February 1991, a study by Dr I.B. Salusky and
colleagues of UCLA Medical School, shouts a warning. After one year of
treatment with low levels of aluminum previously thought to be safe,
dialysis patients doubled their aluminum levels, and showed evidence of
rapid bone disease. Another recent study in the British medical journal
Lancet, shows brain dysfunction in patients with similar levels of aluminum
previously thought to be completely safe.

These diseases happen pretty quick and obvious in patients with reduced
kidney function. In athletes like you, the accumulation of aluminum is
likely to be much slower and unnoticed, insidiously eating away at your
bones and brain. I have cited only a fraction of the studies. The evidence
against aluminum is now so strong that it is criminal neglect to continue to
permit addition of the metal to our food and water, and allow its use in
contact with food. But then, US health authorities were criminally negligent
for 20 years over the lead problem. So don't expect the government to
protect you. You have to protect yourself.

As a still accepted food additive, aluminum is added to food everywhere.
Aluminum salts are used routinely in water treatment. In summer they are
added to public water supplies in massive amounts. Historians of the future
might wonder whether the deliberate addition of aluminum to drinking water,
like the deliberate use of lead water pipes, might have been ways to
eliminate large numbers of the population before they got too old and
burdensome to keep.

To eliminate aluminum, first, don't drink the water, unless you first
distill it. Distill is the right word. Water filters don't remove aluminum.
Second, avoid aluminum containing or citrate containing antacids (citrate
makes aluminum more easily absorbed). Third, read labels for the words alum,
alumina, aluminum, aluminate. Ditch any product that contains them.

Likely candidates, salt (sodium silico aluminate), bread and baked goods
(potassium alum), processed cheese (sodium aluminum phosphate), flour,
pancake mix, pickled vegetables, almost all antacids, aluminum canned
beverages, buffered aspirin, douches, underarm deodorants, and toothpaste.
Don't use them.

Aluminum pots and pans are not a huge worry, unless you stew everything for
hours. They give you only 2-3 mg aluminum per day. You get more than that
from raw vegetables, and one antacid tablet gives you up to 50 mg. Healthy
kidneys can excrete several hundred milligrams of aluminum per day.

Toxic Medicines

Sounds like a contradiction: medicine is supposed to ease illness not cause
it. But if you read the Physicians Desk Reference, you will see the sad
truth that most medicines are toxic, and have no place in a healthy body.
Famous physician Dr Peter Latham said it right, 'Poisons and medicines are
oftentimes the same substance given with different intents'.

The bottom line for athletes is not to take any form of drug, even aspirin,
unless absolutely unavoidable. If presently you swallow prescribed or OTC
drugs by the handful, you are not to blame. Pharmaceutical conglomerates
spend billions of dollars indoctrinating us that every sniffle or twinge
spells health disaster without their nostrums. Prescription drugs are
sometimes necessary for the really sick. But for any of the minor ills, to
which the hard-trained body is prey, drugs simply add a further toxic
burden. In eighteen years of work with athletes, we have found that
prescribing drugs for minor ills in otherwise healthy people, is mostly a
placebo medical strategy to maintain the athletes' humor while waiting for
Nature to do the healing. Avoid it every way you can.

Etc.  Etc.

This post contains alot of misleading statements, junk science and unproven
theories.  I have a long history with alternative medicine and health
practices both good and bad.  I advise others not to take everything said in
Alex's post as unvarnished truth.

<yada yada yada yada>

How dissappointing, I was expecting a funny joke, not the ravings of a loon.
