[HEALTH AND WEALTH] DOCTORS WARNING; STOP USING ALUMINUM FOIL TO COOK RIGHT NOW AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY

Believe it or not, aluminum is actually the most vastly distributed metal on Earth. It finds its uses in how we handle our cookware, drinking water, and kitchen supplies, and even makes its way into our baking sodas, vanilla powders, aspirins, deodorants/antiperspirants, cake mixes, and a number of other products as well; basically, it’s all over the place.

And Aluminum foil might be one of the biggest offenders that we all never really gave much thought.  A recent study has shown that heat causes aluminum from the foil to leach out into foods in significantly harmful amounts.

The researchers found dangerously high levels of aluminum in foods after being cooked, reheated, and even cooled on aluminum foil. The cause for alarm is that when aluminum accumulates in the body, it can lead to osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s.

What’s more, Dr. Zubaidy, one of the study authors, comments that.

“The higher the temperature, the more the leaching. Foil is not suitable for cooking and is not suitable for using with vegetables like tomatoes, citrus juice or spices.”2

On the other hand, the researchers also noted that foil can be considered safe to wrap cold foods, since no leaching was observed without heating. They also did not find a difference if the shiny or dull side were in contact with food.

The story doesn’t really end there either. Aluminum also makes its way into a number of different food additives on the market, many of which are common in restaurant foods around the world. You’d think with how widely used it is, this metal would be harmless, right? Well unfortunately, that isn’t really the case. Unlike iron (a mineral that your body actually needs), your body doesn’t need aluminum at all – in fact, it’s better off without it.
