Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Epidemiological studies from Norway and England suggest a relation between the frequency of Alzheimer's disease and the concentration of aluminium in the drinking water. Estimates, made in this study, show that the role of aluminium from tooth pastes may be even more important than that from the drinking water. For that reason we determined in samples of tooth pastes taken from the BENELUX market which brands contained aluminium. This appeared to be the case for about 22% of the brands which according to the manufacturers cover about 60% of the market. |
