Aluminum has been for quite some time known to be neurotoxic, with mounting proof that its long term environmental exposure is a linked to numerous neurological diseases, including dementia, a mental imbalance, and Parkinson's disease. Nonetheless, research validation is hard to establish due to the absence of longitudinal studies, as well as push back from industries that use aluminum in their products. Regardless of the deficiency of conclusive reviews, mounting scientific proof practically rules out the uncertainty of its toxicity. A valid example is scientific investigation from Keele University in the UK which unequivocally indicates large amounts of aluminum in the brain of an individual exposed to aluminum at work, who later died from Alzheimer's disease. While aluminum exposure has been involved in Alzheimer's and various other neurological diseases, this case happens to be "the main direct connection" between Alzheimer's disease and elevated...

In the world, 200 crore persons do not get pure and perfect drinking water. 4. In developing countries, four out of every five children die because of water-borne diseases. 5. Every year 50 crore persons suffer from water-borne dise...
