    There is no proven link between aluminum and Alzheimer'sAlzheimer's is a progressive disease, where dementia symptoms gradually worsen over a number of years. In its early stages, memory loss is mild, but with late-stage Alzheimer's, individuals lose the ability to carry on a conversation and respond to their environment. Alzheimer's is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. Those with Alzheimer's live an average of eight years after their symptoms become noticeable to others, but survival can range from 4 to 20 years, depending on age and other health conditions. 

    My late mother started to show symptoms at 65, and the condition gradually progressed until she died at age 85.


    If a person carries certain genes namely APOE4 and 17BLMH they are more likely to get Alzheimers. To find out if you carry the gene visit  www,23andme.com. I did, and I don't carry the gene, but that is not to say that I won't get it.


    No proven link has been made between aluminium and Alzhemers.

    Sorry to hear of your loss. My mom had a stroke that took away all her capabilities and she just lay in her nursing home bed for about 20 years.
    At least she was easy to manage. So sad.
    I'm going to check out that site. I can't remember names!

    Thanks for your sympathy, guys. I have read a lot about avoidance of Alz. and it appears that to keep mobile is a help so walk, cycle, swim, work out as much as you can.

     think that there is a possibility  of it,  just a gut feeling there is   too many  cans of soda  and  deoderant  with the stuff in  its contents, also  there could be  leaching  from the cans  to the contents.  why  is this disease so  prevailent now  and not  yrs. ago also look how widely   the  metal is used in  everyday products.
