i should start by saying that i am in the category that thinks that alzheimers and dementia are largely the consequences of exposure to pollution, rather than a genetic mistake. the genetic hypothesis has been thoroughly debunked, except in the most specific of circumstances, which account for very few cases, and it's not even clear that these specific cases can even be called "alzheimer's". while alzheimer's is a disease of dna, it is environment that is the overwhelmingly dominant factor here, not inheritance. so, this needs to be taken very seriously. the extent to which aluminum plays a role in this may be less than other pollutants like lead and mercury, but aluminum exposure is not something that should be trivialized.

the fact of the matter is that aluminum has no value to human health; it is either useless or harmful, and the bounds around that are still coming down. there's no value in taking risks with it, no cost-benefit analysis - it's all cost, no benefit. public health departments, funded by corporate or financial interests and ultimately driven by the investment logic of the ruling party, may try to tell you that certain exposure levels run minimal risks, but why contort your mind into that sort of logic? why decide that something's probably ok because the evidence that it may harm you has been decided to be inconclusive or remains ambiguous, generally by the same people that would be financially harmed by regulatory regimes? i'd rather flip the logic over, if it's with my own health, thanks - i expect you to prove that aluminium is safe if you insist on a hands-off approach, not argue that it's not worth regulating because the evidence for harm remains spotty or inconclusive. that's the logic of capitalism, not the logic of science - and it is the logic of backwardsness. the science is very clear that it is harmful in some amount, but if they are wrong, it can only harm you more than they think it does. why bring this logic of casino capitalism into your health decisions? why take the risk?

the stuff is bad news; stay away from it.

cursory research initially presented a contradiction; while it is stated that most aluminum is removed via the kidney, it is also quantifying that amount as less than 30 micrograms (27-30 was the number brought up in the reports). yet, strawberries are presented as a low-aluminum food - and said to have 300 micrograms in a small serving. so, how do i cut through this?

the answer is supposedly that bioavailability is only .1%. so, of that 300 micrograms, you only absorb .3 - a hundredth of what is removed via kidney function. ok. what's the evidence for that?

The oral bioavailability of the aluminium ion in humans and experimental animals from
drinking water has been estimated to be in the range of 0.3%, whereas the bioavailability of
aluminium from food and beverages generally is considered to be lower, about 0.1%. However,
it is likely that the oral absorption of aluminium from food can vary at least 10-fold depending
on the chemical forms present. Although the degree of water solubility of an aluminium
compound appears to increase the bioavailability of the aluminium ion, the presence or absence
in the intestines of dietary ligands may either increase (e.g. citrate, lactate, and other organic
carboxylic acid complexing agents, fluoride), or decrease the absorption (e.g. phosphate,
silicon, polyphenols). 

so, that potentially takes the absorption up to 3%, and as much as 9 micrograms from those strawberries. that's very bad.

at 3% absorption, x*.03 = 30 <---> x = 30/.03 = 1000 micrograms = 1 mg.
at 1% absorption, 30/.01 = 3 mg
at .3%, 30/.003 = 10 mg
at .1%, 30/.001 - 30 mg

so, this is a big range - 1-30 mg. 

but, that number - 27-30 micrograms - does not appear to be right. what it seems to be is one measure of average excretion that was mispresented to me in the initial source; i've since seen those numbers fluctuate from 5-150. what i want to know is how much your body can process. i mean, this is about rates, right? you can't avoid it, so how do you minimize it to the point that you're able to flush almost all of it out almost immediately? and, while i get there's a range, even finding the range would be useful.

unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be where the science is, and i guess i can understand that trying to test that question may be difficult on the test subject. looking through the literature, what exists are various measurements of where people are at, rather than any load testing - and, on second thought, i guess it's obvious why that is. some measurements exist here:

that said, there is one method that approximates load testing, and that has to do with dialysis patients, who lose the ability to excrete aluminum on their own. for them, toxicity begins to build up around 50-60 µg/L. given that there's more than 4.5 L of blood in your body, 4.5*50 = 225 µg is a low ball of how much your body can actually process per meal.

even if your body can remove 225 µg of aluminum per meal with ease, that doesn't say anything about how much you're transporting to your brain or your liver in the process of doing so. so, this shouldn't be looked at as a "safe amount". rather, i'm going to take a hard line on this - there isn't a safe amount. you should be aiming for as little as possible, and constantly seeking to eliminate whatever you can't yet avoid. aluminum exposure for all living humans should be negligible to zero.

why don't i take a look at what i'm actually consuming, first, and then try and work it out further from there?

because i can't find any data, and the data i can find is all from foreign countries, which isn't useful. i need to know how much aluminum is in soil from california & mexico, mostly - not countries like india or china.

the reason this is important for an anti-nutrient like aluminum is that plants don't regulate for it or seek it, like vitamins or other nutrients, they just absorb it by accident. while all uptake is a function on the soil, you can say things like "strawberries are high in vitamin c" because the strawberries themselves assemble the vitamin c in their bodies. nobody assembles aluminum. nobody wants aluminum. and, any living thing at all gets rid of aluminum as fast as it can. so you can't say that a specific food item contains a specific amount of aluminum; any plant at all would be better off with no aluminum at all. it's only there as a function of pollution, or bad soil. data from other countries is consequently precisely useless to me, in context - i need specific data for the specific country i'm sourcing actual food from. i'm not going to compile aluminum data from soils in africa and asia in this space and pretend it has any relevance in understanding what my personal intake is.

the fact is that i can't find this information right now and i'm moving on.

water:
there's an abstract in this collection (#21) that pulls out an upper range of (.15 + .1 = .25) mg /L

water - .25*.85 = .2125 mg
========
guava - ?
banana  - ?
strawberry - ?
avocado  -  ?
kiwi  - ?
soy - ?
ice cream - ?
yogurt - ?
yeast -  ?
vector cereal - ?
all bran cereal -  ?
flax - ?
algal oil - ?
=====================

the ideal target consumption for aluminum is 0. but, what are the upper limits i should be pushing down?

this is from a very thorough study that i cite a few times in this write-up:
It should be noted that the exposure level of concern estimated here for aluminium in drinking water (100 μg/L) suggests that absorption of 6.9 × 10-6 mg/kg-day aluminium is of concern. If that is the case, then exposures associated with food intake (uptake of 1 × 10-4 mg/kg-day) or inhalation (1.7 × 10-5 mg/kg-day) would also be of concern (see Table 26). 

going back to table six and back-converting,

0.0023*50 = 0.115 mg = 115 μg
.12*50 = 6 mg
============================
6.115 mg = 6115 μg

that's on the low range of the upper limits, but i think even that is too high. while health authorities suggest average numbers are in the 7-8 mg/day range and intakes over 5 mg per day are safe, this seems far too high given what i can find about renal clearance. a good study on renal clearance is really what i want to see, as a per-meal requirement is no doubt more useful than a per-day requirement, given how your body excretes this. but, i want this number to be under 100/.03 = 3.33 mg per meal, at the very most - probably much lower than that.

so, i'm stuck. right?

but, while i was trying to work this out, i learned that a number of compounds & elements can help remove aluminum from your body:

1) betaine is a general liver cleanser, actually prescribed by hospitals for this purpose:
2) it's also thought that sufficient iron, calcium & sodium in your diet are likely to minimize aluminum uptake, due to aluminum using these pathways to sneak in:
3) zinc has also been shown to clear aluminum, but the studies are only in exceedingly sick people. so, get your zinc rdi, too.
4) silicon seems to react with aluminum directly in stomach acid to form large molecules (aluminosilicates) that cannot be further absorbed. so, silicon should be sought out at a 2:1 ratio to aluminum in diet itself, to minimize uptake.

while prevention is always preferable to mitigation, the difficulty of finding useful bounds combined with the ubiquity of this particular pollutant means that mitigation is perhaps the more realistic approach. yes - it would be very useful to know how much aluminum i'm getting, and whether or not i could take a few steps to cut it down. that would be some real market choice. but i'm just going to end up mitigating in the end, anyways, because i can't get rid of it completely.

these are consequently the steps i'm taking, abstractly:

1) get enough betaine & zinc to make sure my liver and brain aren't building up with these sorts of toxins 
2) get enough iron, calcium & sodium to block the aluminum from sneaking in
3) as the problem appears to be soil and air, opt for hydroponic and indoor growing as much as possible
4) measure the amount of aluminum i think i'm getting, then make sure i'm getting twice as much silicon, at the source. this will hopefully catch the aluminum before it gets in. i don't expect it to be that difficult, either.

however, because i can't effectively measure my aluminum intake from food, what i'm forced to do is assume the worst, which would be the average intake over any given meal. that would be 10 mg/meal of aluminum - which i hope i'm nowhere close to, but i should assume is the worst case, because i can't get better data. then, a target of 20 mg/meal (60+ mg/day) would give me twice as much silicon as aluminum, which would maximize the ability to neutralize it in the stomach. if i'm getting less than 4 mg/meal, as i hope i am, that just puts me in that much better shape.

the requirements are consequently:

1) 20 mg/meal
2) 60 mg/day (300%+)

if somebody could give me a list of aluminum sinks in the food web, i'd try to avoid them. but, google "aluminum sinks" and see the obvious useless results from it. i'm done banging my head against the wall with this and want to move on - whether due to ignorance, disinterest or corporate scrubbing, the estimated aluminum contents of essentially any widely available food item in north america is not freely available on the internet, at this time.

so, here's my silicon intake, then:

water:
i get my water from a waterway that is flowing from lake huron to lake erie. the following article explains that the silicon content of the lower lakes has actually been damaged by too much phosphorus:

i'm using 1.5 mg/L, which is a lowball that is sourced from this site:

that is roughly ten times the level of aluminum.

guava, banana, strawberry, avocado, kiwi, cereal:

soy & milk:

flax:

water - 1.5*.85 = 1.275 mg
========
guava - 0 
banana  -  4.77*1.18 = 5.6286 mg
strawberry  - 1.19*(100/120) = 0.99166666666 mg
avocado  -  .32*150/50 = .96 mg
kiwi  -  .13*69/60 = .1495 mg
soy - .58*4 = 2.32 mg
ice cream -  .076*(.15 + .25)*.5 = .0152 mg <-----40% total milk + 50% dulling factor
yogurt - .076*.5 = .038 mg
yeast - google tells me about attempts to fortify yeast with silicon, suggesting ~0.
vector cereal - .13*15/6 = .325 mg
all bran cereal -  1.54*45/14 = 4.95 mg
flax -  7000*.0024 = 16.8 mg <-----a lot, but it seems to check out. much less than rice!
algal oil -  ?
===================

(1.275 + 5.6286 + .991666666666666 + .96 + .1495 + 2.32 + 0.0152 + .038 + .325 + 4.95 + 16.8)/20= 
33.4529666667/20 =
1.67264833334--->167%

but, what are the lingering concerns regarding silicon?

first, we should eliminate virtually all of it:

so, if we need a little bit for some of these esoteric functions that we can't pin down, it really is quite a small amount - if the intent is to take it as a purging agent, it should be virtually entirely excreted within 24 hours.

second, as it is excreted so well, it doesn't seem to build up in any meaningful sense.

third, silicon isn't associated with any known diseases, as far as i can tell.

while i don't know how to eliminate any aluminum i may have built up in my brain or other non-liver tissues, i can only hope that attempting to block absorption leads to a decrease in these unwanted stores over time.

& phosphorus - a more conventional addition - is next.

disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.

note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.

diet options:

daily:

 2 ) pasta salad bowl:
- one tbsp of imitation bacon bits (isoflavones, maybe)
- olives?
- red clover (if locatable or foragable, for phytoestrogens)
- alfafa?
- rice bran is similar to sunflower in b5, but lower in omega-6 and lower in choline. also, less e. it would be better if i find myself strictly concerned about b5, but in the pasta bowl. this seems unlikely.
- dried whey is a little lower in both b5 & higher in choline, but also has a little b12 & has almost no fat. it's almost like the missing part of the yeast. i'm having trouble finding it though and don't think the isolate available at bulk barn is comparable. it seems to be largely seen as a waste product in yogurt production. it may be broadly useful across plates.
- broccoli?

3) eggs:
- salami (45 g) (25% b1, 12% b3, 5% b5, 11.5% b6, 0% b9, 20% b12)
- rice (100 g) (60% b1, 35% b3, 4% b5, 6% b6, 69% b9)

remaining items to enter or investigate:

15 amino acids: <----for sure, eventually
1) histidine, 2) isoleucine, 3) leucine, 4) lysine, 5) methionine, 6) phenylalanine, 7) threonine, 8) tryptophan
9) valine, 10) arginine, 11) cysteine, 12) glycine, 13) glutamine, 14) proline, 15) tyrosine
+ measure 6 non-essential

carotenoids (not including pro-vitamin a): <---maybe
1) lutein, 2) zeaxanthin, 3) lycopene, 4) phytofluene, 5) phytoene, 6) astaxanthin, 7) capsanthin, 8) canthaxanthin, 9) cryptoxanthin

chlorophyll:
1) chlorophyll a
2) chlorophyll b

other molecules required for proper metabolic functions:
5) ergothioneine  (cannot synthesize)   
6) pqq - .2 mg, or 400 ng, but can't find good sources
7) queuine - no rdi determined. milk, whole wheat, tomatoes.
10) creatine? (avoidance? creatine increases muscle mass (which is bad.) but also improves brain function (which is good). careful.) 
11) ribose
12) "nucleic acids"?
13) don't forget about heme
14) carnosine

glucose:
i'm more concerned about diabetes than weight gain, so...
the glycemic index is:
running total...

fiber:
i don't need many different types, i just need some. i'm not worrying about this.

& water

also, let's measure flavonoids:

anthocyanidins:
