Effect of an aluminum foil-processed diet on internal human aluminum burden – ScienceDirect

Researchers say their findings may be troubling as aluminum has been documented to be a neurotoxin.

“Aluminum can be released into food by aluminum-containing food-contact materials (Al-FCM) during preparation or storage,” the study said in the ‘Abstract’ section. “There is considerable concern that extra aluminum intake may have negative effects on public health, especially with regard to its high background exposure and neurotoxic properties of aluminum in high exposures.”

5. IRON:  The best vegan food sources of iron include:

Blackstrap molasses

Lentils

Spinach

Tofu

Kidney beans

Foods high in vitamin C help the body absorb more iron, so try eating lentils with red bell peppers, putting blackstrap molasses in a fruit smoothie, having tofu with a side of broccoli, or eating an orange with your fortified breakfast cereal.
