Do you have any sources for this fairly common naturally occurring
biologically important, and in human uses bioinert metal causing “light metal poisoning” from either natural background doses or incidental from human pollution?I don’t want acute poisoning, specifically sources on chronic background doses.
Since when is aluminium biologically important? I’m under the impression that humans (and other life?) do not need aluminium at all.
Having said that, my info is that it’s nothing to worry about. It is very common in food (naturally and since forever), and the body can get rid of it, and they haven’t been able to show adverse effects except in very very high doses. That’s the messaging I’ve been seeing anyway.
You’re in fact right, I was hedging a bet that the abundance of aluminum meant it’d be used by some random metabolic processes somewhere, which it probably is, but still none found.
