Question: Question about kidney disease!? !?
On the back of my deodorant it says "Ask a doctor before use if you have kidney disease"!. Why is this!? Because of the holiday I can't ask my doctor until Tuesday!. Thanks!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
This thing has a long history: Years ago, it was found that dialysis patients were accumulating aluminum in the body tissues (nobody had really thought about the aluminum content of city water much before that!.) Aluminum in the blood stream and in the body can displace calcium from bones, weakening the bone structure, it can also accumulate in brain tissue!.
These days the reverse-osmosis filtered water used in dialysis machines is tested frequently for aluminum content, so it's not a big deal any more!.
A slightly lower, but still significant risk comes from swallowing magnesium/aluminum antiacids, so those are usually off the list for dialysis patients!.
But I don't think that there has ever been a single documented case of aluminum intoxication simply from application of aluminum-containing products to the skin!.
