Health implications of this quite popular but dangerous practice

Image
 Killing Us Slowly If you move around Lagos, or many other cities across Nigeria. One thing you would notice is that most shops display their wares, especially consumable beverages and also different types of bottled water outside. Oftentimes, at the mercy of the unforgiving hot Sun, unleashing its ultraviolet radiation on the products. Unfortunately, both the sellers, and consumers are unaware of the health implications of this quite popular but dangerous practice. I don’t know why I am so emphatic about the role of the unregulated food industry in Nigeria’s huge health challenges. I worry myself so much whenever I see these things because they compound an already messed up system leading to bigger health challenges.

Image
Here are three reasons to keep aluminum foil out of your kitchen, and some healthier alternatives to use instead. 1. Aluminum foil is a neurotoxin Aluminum has long been scrutinized by the scientific community for its potential role as a neurotoxin. Researchers maintain that, due to the fact that aluminum has no physiological role in the human body, it has the potential to cause significant detrimental effects when consumed. This theory was unequivocally proven when a  2014 study  showed that a 66-year-old man who died with Alzheimer’s disease had significantly elevated aluminum content in his brain, following eight years of occupational exposure. While the study noted that it was the respiratory system that was exposed to aluminum dust, we now know that there is a direct link between aluminum ingestion and  Alzheimer’s disease , a debilitating neurological disorder.
