Alum, Alzheimers and Aluminum ?

Alum is a product used to treat water, it acts as a nucleous to
attract particles in water, filtering it, unfortunately the end result
is that you have higher concentrations of aluminum in the water.

Well in Thunder Bay, the raw water, the water before filtering has .02
mg per litre of Aluminum in the water.  After it is filtered the
levels go to .32 mg.  Well the US has guidelines, i believe about .24
mg, but in Canada we don't have any ?  Odd ?

Well in communications with Dr. Squitti in Italy, elevated levels of
copper have beeen found in people with Alzheimers, and it appears
Aluminum has long been suspect in creating Alzheimers as well.

So why is this truth not being communicated to people...?

It's not a truth.  The aluminum-Alzheimer's connection is incredibly
tenuous.  There might be some connection with organic aluminum
compounds, but evidence is very slim.

the very latest Ive seen points the finger at ZINC not aluminum.
