Judy Weiner finds tutoring and antiquing
more a love affair than work.
Aluminum is present in our air,
water, food, and such medications
as buffered aspirin, antacids, anti-
diarrheals, and some vaccines.
4_ Packaging and aluminum
cans and cooking utensils
may also increase our expo-
) sure levels, although there
is no consensus over the
health impact (if any) of
'K exposure to such relative-
) ly small amounts. The
- good news is that aver-
! age.healthy individuals
// tend to retain only about
/ 30-50 mg of aluminum,
less than the amount in a
single antacid tablet.

Russian-born singer shares
Jewish repertoire in local concert.
Elevated levels of aluminum have
been linked to Alzheimer's and im-
paired mental functioning, but to
date there is no definitive scientific
evidence proving such linkage.
I'd like to give you a more definite
answer, but these are the facts.
