Alzheimer’s Disease – A Fresh Consideration
You’ve heard people say they are having a ’senior moment’. When that happens to my Dad, he says jokingly (as he abruptly feigns as if he is looking for something) “where did I place my aluminum pills?”
It’s one of those sort of funny, sort of not-so-funny things that he says, in gest.
Some people think aluminum is the cause of Alzheimer’s. Now, where would we get enough aluminum to cause aluminum poisoning? Perhaps all the soda pop cans we’ve been drinking out of for xx number of years? But is that it? Is that the only cause? And most of us don’t need much proof that having aluminum in our brains is probably not a good idea.
What else might be the cause of Alzheimer’s?
The University of Calgary has done some research and, in fact, they’ve produced an interesting video. The video shows the visual evidence of neural degeneration caused by the presence of mercury on a developing neural fiber. It is compelling information.
Granted, they did not use human brain neurons in their experiment, thankfully, but I think the point is still valid.
It appears likely, from the research and video, that mercury is a likely cause of Alzheimer’s. In other research, autopsies performed on people that were known to have Alzheimer’s showed that their brains have the same kinds of twisted neural fibers seen and described in the video (post mercury exposure).
Until more compelling evidence is available that contradicts this conclusion, for my money, I’m betting that mercury is the primary cause of Alzheimer’s Disease. How convinced am I? Enough to chelate mercury out of my system, including my brain. But then, I was already going through chelation before I saw this video. I had also already done a lot of mercury related research. Thus I didn’t need a firestorm of new information to be convinced of the connection between the two.
If that is the case, what can you do to lower your risks? Plenty. But you need to see an outstanding Doctor that understands the proper protocols for determining if you have mercury in your body and how to get it out if you do.
I can tell you that depending on your condition, chelation can be relatively easy or it can be quite a difficult process to endure. In any case, it beats the possibility of enduring the loss of your mind to “Alzheimer’s” or mercury poisoning of the brain.
