Do you know there is a simple way your business can help
reduce the number of people with Alzheimer’s and Autism? Your business may be using a neuorotoxic
ingredient which can easily be replaced.
This letter is about spreading information to help prevent
Alzheimer’s and Autism.
There is a Neurotoxic
Ingredient in Baking Powder and Food Dyes
Aluminum salts are the
neurotoxic ingredient in some baking powders that kills neurons in the brain. Aluminum salts have been linked to causing
Alzheimer’s and Autism.
If you are using
aluminum-free baking powder in your business, THANK YOU!
We
are compiling a list of bakeries and restaurants that use aluminum free baking
powder which will be at our website, facebook page and blogs. If you would like to be included on this list
please contact us.
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.

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.
