SOLUTIONS TO INFERTILITY: PROTECTING AGAINST ALUMINUM AND CADMIUM

Posted by admin on April 23, 2009

Aluminum

Aluminum has been linked to dementia because it has been found in patches of cell damage in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s. The results are not conclusive but we should perhaps be wary of it anyway.

The main sources of aluminum are indigestion tablets (antacids), deodorants and anti-perspirants, anti-caking agents found in some dried milk, aluminum cookware, soft drink cans and foil. High levels of aluminum can be seen from the analysis of a hair sample.

What You Can Do

• Buy aluminum-free deodorants at health food shops, where the ingredients will be listed on the containers.

• If you are taking indigestion tablets, have the cause of the problem investigated either medically or with a good nutritional therapist.

• Get rid of all your aluminum pans and buy cast iron, enamel, glass and stainless steel. (People used to cook rhubarb (a very acidic fruit) in an aluminum pan to ‘clean’ up the pan, which it did very nicely, as the aluminum was neatly absorbed into the rhubarb.)

•The same applies to acid drinks like colas in aluminum cans. They should be avoided for a number of reasons, including the leaching of aluminum into the drink.

Cadmium

This is an inorganic poison present in tobacco smoke and is a well-known mutagen. It interferes with your zinc levels which are crucial for both male and female fertility. The main answer is for both of you to stop smoking.
