I’ve always suspected Aluminum. It was very rare until a way to extract was discovered in 1886. Alzheimer’s was rare until after that time as well. I figure that soda pop is a weak acid and little bits of the aluminium can get dissolved and into our circulation.
Not a bad theory. Problem is people will tell you that you are crazy or a right-wing nut when they have no clue. Similar to the flu...how did I get the real flu in the 90s, bad...while after getting the flu shot? No one I knew or worked with got it We’re learning that with the Kung-Flu...even though we know where it came from no one really knows why some get it, some don’t, some die...some open their mouths and display their lying and hypocrisy.
Look at the label....contains Phosphoric acid
Used widely in the semi-conductor and flat panel industries to etch aluminum.
Worked at an RC Cola bottling plant in the 1980’s and every once in a while, a bottle would break on a pallet. Pull the pallet out to clean and the finish of the concrete floor was taken off. The warehouse was dotted with hundreds of spots.
