The neurotoxicity of environmental aluminum is still an issue

2010

Introduction
Aluminum is environmentally prevalent and ingested by humans
There is an epidemiological relation between chronic aluminum exposure and the incidence of Alzheimer's disease
Aluminum exposure may also promote the onset of Parkinson's disease
Acute exposure to aluminum can cause clinical neurotoxicity
Elevated levels of intrinsic inflammation are associated with neural aging and this is exacerbated in several neurodegenerative diseases
Low levels of aluminum in drinking water of experimental animals, elevate basal levels of inflammatory activity within the CNS
