..........Fluoride, in toothpastes and often in our water, also causes brain damage. Actually, fluoride helps aluminum cross the blood brain barrier, so that aluminum enters the brain very easily. Both fluoride and aluminum in the body are dangerous alone, but together they're lethal for your brain.

Cooking fluorinated water in aluminum cookware concentrates aluminum - by hundreds of times - making it a far more potent poison. Fluoride is also in soft drinks, if the maker is in an area using fluorinated water, and restaurants often use aluminum cookware.

When you understand the causes, you can now work backwards to understand prevention. For starters, toss fluoride toothpastes and deodorants and find natural alternatives. If you're cooking on aluminum foil or aluminum pots and pans, use glass or high heat fired lead-free ceramic instead. Then, buy organic foods and stay away from other habits that promote brain damage, including junk food, smoking and pharmaceutical drugs........
