There is a Neurotoxic Ingredient in Baking Powder and Food Dyes

Aluminum is the neurotoxic ingredient in some baking powders that kills neurons in the brain.
If you are using aluminum-free baking powder in your business, THANK YOU!

Here is information as to why it is so important to bake with aluminum-free baking powder and use natural food dyes.

A daily diet of pancakes, waffles, muffins, or biscuits increases the risk of Alzheimer’s by 760%. This is because most commercial baking powder contains sulfate, phosphate, and pyrophosphate salts of aluminum used to acidify baking soda during baking. (Rogers, M.A.M. and Simon, D.G.; Age and Ageing; 28:205-9 (1999))

My mother-in law has Alzheimer’s. My husband Dennis N. Crouse has used his PhD in chemistry from Harvard University to research ways to help his mother. What he learned after reviewing the scientific literature for several years both shocked us and gave us hope. Aluminum salts are a cause of Alzheimer’s and Autism so these diseases can be prevented. Dennis and I are passionate about getting this information to people. Dennis has written a book titled “Prevent Alzheimer’s, Autism, and Stroke”. We have also made you tube videos in order to share the information he learned.
Muffins and other baked goods made with aluminum containing baking powder are beyond TOXIC for your brain!!!! For instance I have unknowingly been preparing pumpkin muffins with 20 mg of aluminum per muffin. My delicious pumpkin muffin when made with baking powder containing aluminum has 200 times higher aluminum levels than the safe aluminum level in a quart of drinking water.

A little bit of aluminum every day can lead to a large amount of accumulated aluminum in the brain. It is estimated that 4% of the aluminum you ingest today will still be in your body 50 years later.
Aluminum-free baking powder is available. Dennis and I did a cost analysis and found switching to aluminum-free baking powder increases the cost of one muffin by less than a penny. There are several aluminum-free baking powders. You can also make aluminum-free baking powder with 1 part baking soda, 2 parts cream of tartar, and 1 part corn starch.

Food dyes are another source of aluminum. An aluminum salt of the colorant is used to make dyes called aluminum lakes and in some cases colorants are combined with alumina (a.k.a. aluminum oxide). Because of aluminum corrosion, baking in an aluminum pan also adds aluminum to the baked good.
