Neurological disorders associated with aluminum toxicity have been on the rise for the past few decades. With the extensive use of aluminum in our everyday lives, this can hardly come as a surprise. For one thing, aluminum is found in cookware, wrapping foils, beverage and food containers, underarm deodorants, tobacco, over-the-counter and prescribed medicines, and as adjuvants in vaccines.
Aluminum compounds that are injected circumvent the liver and kidneys and remain and accumulate to toxic levels in slow cellular replacing tissues including bone matter, heart and brain. These tissues are most susceptible to collecting and storing aluminum because these cells die off and regenerate at a much slower rate than cells and tissue on the skin, for instance.
As the blood brain barrier doesn’t prevent aluminum’s intrusion into our gray matter, over time this leads to the onset of diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS, chronic fatigue, as well as the complete ASD and other neurological or auto-immune diseases.
SILICA AGAINST ALUMINUM BRAIN DAMAGE
According to Dr. Chris Exley, PhD, we now live in the aluminum age. Although aluminum is the most common mineral on the planet, therefore harmless, as many scientists claim, its large-scale exploitation parallels the substantial rise of brain disorders.
For one thing, aluminum is found in all vaccinations because it’s highly reactive with other chemicals and activates the secretion of antigens to stimulate the antibody response of the immune system to vaccines.
Dr. Exley has been investigating the link between aluminum toxicity, vaccines and neurological disorders for two decades. During the study, he and his team have found that another earth mineral, also found in abundance, can significantly improve symptoms of autism spectrum disorders and other neurological damage in vaccinated children – silica or silicic acid, which is actually oxygenated silica. The study results revealed that once silica enters the body through the gut then into the blood and the brain matter, it binds with the aluminum molecules and leads them out of brain cell tissue through the urine. As silica is found in large quantities in some mineral waters, Dr. Exley has used this as the most convenient way to introduce this beneficial mineral into the body.
To prove the effectiveness of high silica content mineral waters the team of researchers tested subjects’ urine samples.
Three brands of mineral water were indicated to have the highest amount of silica:
- Spritzer, and
These three commercial bottled water list silica amounts as milligrams (mg) per liter on the bottle label. Fiji is the richest silica source of the three.
When aluminum toxic children affected with ASD were given high silica content water on regular daily basis for a couple of months, their symptoms significantly improved. The study also involved a group of 15 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients who were given the same rate of one liter water per day for 13 weeks. The results showed that aluminum levels were reduced by 50- 70% in all the subjects involved, and 8 of the 15 AD patients no longer showed signs of brain deterioration, while 3 showed considerable cognitive improvement.
Dr. Exley recommends drinking 1-1.5l water per day in order to effectively eliminate the aluminum buildup from the body. More is required for high levels of aluminum toxicity. The team of researchers also agrees that it’s best to drink the whole bottle within an hour for optimal results.
When there’s sufficient intake of silica, aluminum is eliminated through urine. Best of all, there aren’t any side effects of taking too much silica providing you drink the right water and supplement your diet with enough vitamin B1 and potassium.
OTHER HEALTH BENEFITS OF SILICA
1# Silica accounts for collagen elasticity of all connecting tissues in the body, such as tendons and cartilage, which makes this mineral extremely important for maintaining your body’s suppleness.
2# Silica is highly beneficial for preventing arterial plague buildup and clogging of arteries.
3# Silica plays a major role in building bone matter, thus preventing arterial calcification from serum calcium that is not absorbed as bone matter.
4# Silica is essential for strong bones and a healthy cardiovascular system because it ensures that magnesium, and vitamin K2, calcium become part of bone matter instead of remaining in the blood and possibly calcifying in the soft tissue of inner artery walls and the heart.
5# Silica is one of the most important anti-aging minerals.
Other natural sources of silica include the herb horsetail and diatomaceous earth powder. Organic cucumbers are another rich source of silica.
Aluminum toxicity can severely affect your bone, heart and brain health. Therefore, detoxifying your body of aluminum deposits is vital for overall health.
