When post mortems were done on people who had died with Alzheimer's they were sometimes found to have small collections of aluminium salts in their brain.
That was the only link.
The media made the most of it - as they do - and the public mostly believe what they see on tv so it became a fact.
Some other corpses also had the aluminium in their brain, by the way ...

======================= Recent news items have suggested that Alzheimer's disease can be prevented by drinking orange juice several times a week. I wonder if the orange juice clears the aluminium from the brain.

I hope orange juice doesn't get into my brain!

Florida on my mind?
Indeed not, it might start a precedent if something got in there after so many years of vacuum.
What would happen if you drank your orange juice from an aluminium cup?

It will glow slightly.
This is practically guaranteed to bugger a 'bimetalic' pan too.
Its a start.
I have never ever got the bright sheen back on really burned SS, but caustic, wire wool, and elbow grease gets MOST of the utility back, if not the nice appearance.
I've never found anything other than elbow grease and abrasive that works on really solid carbon deposits
that sounds like the voice of experience.
Not for me, thanks :-)

Enzyme May Help Fight Alzheimer's
In tests with mice and fruit flies, an enzyme appeared to both eliminate the tangles and reduce the brain's decline. Much of Alzheimer's research has focused on so-called amyloid plaques, a buildup of proteins inside the brain between cells that appears to contribute to dementia. It's not clear if tangles hurt brain cells or are just a symptom of a dementia problem. The point is that they're totally correlated with neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease, and in a number of other dementias.

I think you dreamt it. I don't think there was ever any real evidence that aluminium from cookware got into your body.
Anodized aluminium pots are widely available.

Ether's heavier than air so open the door and it will find its way out.

Lovely. A bit like chicken. Left out in the Sun. For a week.
That one works great to get tea stains out of a stainless steel mug. Leave the coke in overnight, and the tanin just melts off.

Everything tastes "A bit like chicken".
Apart from proper chicken, obviously.
