If anything is going to rip into the can linings it would be those Energy mixes and Cola products ....

But then again they could be paying off the Authorities to keep their findings a secret to stop the lawsuits ..... ( yes , I think all the time about Conspiracy Theories ... )

Anyway ....

There are so many things out there that are " maybe " causes of things  . I was having some skin problems once and went to see some experts . They say most skin conditions are caused by nickel coating . Hands up how many people use shiny cutlery to eat with ...
And second on the list is the chemical found in the dye used to colour clothing black . Hands up all those that wear black t shirts , shorts , or underwear ....

And anyway , my father died from Alzheimer's , so to me , the scariest word in the Dictionary is " hereditary " !  Especially since my mother died from cancer .....

I thought the story behind aluminium came from a discredited study done by a certain American company who started selling stainless saucepans, the study found aluminium in the brain of people who had Alzheimer’s, later on a proper study was done which found the same or greater consecrations of aluminium in all the brains studied, but most didn’t have Alzheimer’s.
But the fear lives on. ;D

Wouldn't worry too much about the Billy or saucepan being aluminum.   If you use antiperspirant then read the label.  The active ingredient is aluminium.
