aluminum foil & alzheimer's disease...

"Aluminum, at temperatures below melting point, does not give off gas or vapor."

Well yes but that's in an inert environment...

Hey Harris... if Al could CAUSE Alzheimers, and cannabis PREVENTS it...
Let's just imagine that they cancel each other out, and go back to smoking out of whatever we feel like?

[harris7]

and as far as i know there still isnt a known cause or any preventitive measures you can take for alzhiemers.

no so true.

Caffeine prevents AD (alzheimer's disease) in rats a study released NOV 4th.
i personally read the study about an hour ago actually.

Another study on cannabis, shows that THC completely inhibits this molecule involved in causing AD.
The inhibition of this molecule is how other preventative drugs for AD work.

Heres a quote:

â??Compared to currently approved drugs prescribed for the treatment of Alzheimerâ??s disease, THC is a considerably superior inhibitor of AB(beta) aggregation.â?�



This isnâ??t 100% proof though. More studies needed. But it looks good

incomplete combustion produces less carbon dioxide and more carbon ("black residue") and carbon monoxide. carbon monoxide is a poison because it replaces the oxygen in your blood. neither carbon or carbon monoxide are acidic and hence do not corrode the aluminium. and your saliva is not acidic (your stomach ACIDS are but not saliva), instead it contains enzymes which start to breakdown any starchy foods you eat.

i always use AL if i'm out of gauzes......plus people use it in the oven with FOOD and thats heated to the same (if not most likely higher) temps than a lighter and for longer time periods. so shove that in your pipe and fuck off

...your saliva is either acidic or basic. it is not neutral. your oven does not get as hot as a lighter...there is no flame in ur fuckin oven. you only use it at 450 at most. usually around 350. lighters have flame. so shove my dick in ur mom and cum, bitch! i am high as fuck. vaporizers pwn ir pipe.

I think we've already figured out that aluminum does not cause alzheimer's.

Can this thread be locked so we can move on now?

[harris7]

man if we proved that, why not instead of having studies. They can pay abunch of high people to argue about stuff.

[partyguy420]

All I am saying is anything that does shit on the melecular level like that has the potential to cause harm. And microwaves are harmfull.

actualy... microwaves, just make certian molocues bounce up and down and all around, creating friction... heating the food...

[harris7]

you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Please take the time and read the last 10 posts and find out why your wrong.

with love

"Scientist can not remember if Alzheimerâ??s Disease causes higher concentrations of aluminum, or if it is caused by high concentrations of aluminum."


:stoned: :stoned:

I think more studies need to be done

Interesting read though

"scientists cant remember" god that's hilarious.

i think its easier to avoid foil full stop.

theres to much of a risk plus a pipe or bong is much better

even if its a 5% risk it aint worth gettin high when u can just roll a joint

I think that using plastic would be worse for you. Plastic melts. Baaad times. The aluminum would have to vaporize to get into your body, which it wouldn't with just a normal lighter. In my neurophysiology class, aluminum was never mentioned as any risk factor to Alzheimer's. We extensively covered the disease. The disease is just neurofibrillary tangles caused by some protein defect...too lazy to think much more about it right now.
