Newborns are being exposed to aluminum levels at an alarming rate which results in children being exposed to harmful consequences.
Newborns and babies are seen to be at a greater risk of toxins due to them being immature. The researchers found increased levels of aluminum toxins in pharmaceutical products and parental nutritional solutions.
The researchers concluded neonatologists and pediatricians must note the levels of toxin concentration before recommending products that newborns get exposed to.
On the other hand, researchers highlight the importance of having the concentrations of aluminum levels present in dairy products monitored at regular intervals to keep the newborns safe.
Pediatrics ran a test on 30 baby formulas to understand the presence of toxins in the UK. Shockingly, all the products were seen to be contaminated with toxins such as aluminum and no progress or measures implemented to have the toxin levels reduced.
On the other hand, some of the formulas being examined were seen to have 100 times more aluminum levels.
The authors of the study suggest regulatory methods are the need of the hour to combat the ever-increasing levels of toxins in the baby products. Earlier studies too have shown concerns with increased aluminum levels being linked to bone defects, dementia, and neurological diseases.
A study earlier done reviewed the presence of aluminum levels present in soy milk that is being sold in the United States. The amount of aluminum levels present in the breast milk have a concentration of 4 – 65 Ng/ml.
On the other hand, the presence of aluminum levels seen in the soy formula was seen to be 600 – 1300 Ng/ml. it was later discovered mineral salts that were used in the production of the formula were the major culprit behind increased aluminum levels.
It should be further noted that increased aluminum levels are also seen to be a contributor for growth retardation.
At times children are required to be on the formula while some children need food supplements to be administered.
However, if one is able to breastfeed their child, more importantly when colostrums are present, it can significantly lower the risk of autism and celiac diseases.
Much has been written about the presence of aluminum in vaccinations and how these can end up impacting autistic kids. Current researches are being looked into the possible effects of aluminum overload in vaccinations.
Children who were administered vaccinations with increased aluminum levels were analyzed. The ones who had increased itching were to have contracted allergies.
The risks were seen to increase with greater significance when the second dose of vaccinations was administered.
Researcher in the United Kingdom found the benefits of drinking mineral water that is silicon-rich. The mineral water was seen to majorly contribute to reducing neurotoxin aluminum levels in the human body.
The consumption of water allows a body to have the aluminum levels gathered up and have it excreted through urine.
A participant in the study, who was observed to have an aluminum overload, was given silicon-rich mineral water to understand its effects. Interestingly the researchers saw 70 percent reduction in the aluminum levels by drinking the mineralized water.
