Avatar f tn Thank you RubyWitch - I appreciate your response. I've tried Miradry and it did not help and I also trued those aluminum chloride based deodorants you spoke of...I might have to go see another dermatologist to see if there's anything I can do. I'm trying to stay off of sugar and alcohol to see if it helps, I bought probiotics the other day. Thanks again for your suggestions!
Avatar n tn Hello Dr., A few months ago I made the mistake of smoking marijuana out of a makeshift pipe. A component of the pipe was a piece of aluminum foil that i used to place the marijuana on. Now I am worried about the health consequences of placing a flame near the aluminum, thus vaporizing it and inhaling it. I am primarily worried because I remember having a slight headache afterward.
Avatar f tn It does matter that it is aluminum free and that it says it is aluminum free. Arm and Hammer does not say it is aluminum free, so it does contain aluminum. I found some aluminum free baking soda in the bulk foods section of my store and tried it out for something else. The aluminum free stuff is not as harsh.

282955 tn?1394730951 The American Cancer Society Web site has a lengthy discussion of all sorts of things proven and rumored to be risk factors for BC. They mentioned a frequent e-mail rumor regarding the chemicals in antiprespirants being absorbed through the skin and eventually causing BC, but stated that there is very little laboratory or population-based evidence to support this rumor.

Avatar m tn Aluminum is one of the most toxic substances to humans. Aluminum damages nervous systems in both infants and adults. It is linked in anemia, osteomalacia, glucose intolerance, memory deficits, and Alzheimer's, Lou Gehrig's (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), and Parkinson's diseases. They do know that aluminum is extremely toxic to the human nervous systems and should be avoided.
Avatar m tn My liver disease also caused my serum sodium level to drop off (a condition known as Hyponatremia) and a low sodium level can produce a dementia similar to high ammonia levels but is more difficult to treat (at least in my experience).
Avatar f tn I have undergone several tests as per my health checkup, and Physician has confirmed nothing seriously wrong, and advised me not to worry and continue to remain sober However, because of my minor symptoms and the ammonia level, and information on the web worries me for encephalopathy.Could you help me in: -If Encephalopathy is suspected, then also suspect is associated cirrhosis, and portal hypertension? But USG says No portal hypertension. -What could be the reason of high ammonia?
773755 tn?1328119777 Rumford's has made aluminum free baking soda for ages and ages, and can be found in any health food store. However, I'd really check to see if the stuff to be taken internally really is the same as the other stuff. Just to be sure. I'm sure googling it will get you there.
163305 tn?1333668571 A lot of people call this conspiracy theory, but if you look up in the skies, you can see them. The skies are crisscrossed, and they are dropping aluminum and barium on the land. California supplies the nation with 50% of their produce. Most of the organic produce comes from California. So, if you are putting aluminum on all the land, there is going to be no such thing as organic anymore. All food and all crops are being poisoned by this aluminum.” http://chemtrailsplanet.
1008841 tn?1293598960 that is to say, some patients who have hepatic encephalopathy (HE, or confusion due to liver dysfunction) do not have elevated ammonia levels, and sometimes ammonia levels can be elevated without apparent HE -- docs usually use the guidelines Hector provided above to diagnose HE as opposed to just declaring it based on ammonia levels. Flowerchild: you can calculate your own MELD score if you have a copy of your lab reports from bloodwork by using this site: http://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar n tn But by the time we had his blood checked his levels were right smack in the middle of the range. Doctor said he was fine. So my question is can this ammonia gone untreated continue to rise and lower on its own. Because he has days that he seems fine and then days when he is not with me completely. He does not eat much as his taste buds are totally out of wack. Most foods taste very salty.And of course he does sleep alot.
Avatar f tn I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I work in a paint department. I mix colors and clean up paint pretty much. Since I've worked there we have always used glass cleaner to clean the paint off the desk and our hands. I didnt know this until today but the cleaner we use has ammonia in it. I've been using it every day for a few months to get the paint off of my hands. Could it have hurt my baby?
Avatar f tn The first time they found the problem he lost 30 pounds and it went away well he has since gained that back and a little more and the fatty liver popped back up so now he has to go on a diet again although he does not drink the dr told him not to drink at all it could be very harmful because of the state his liver is in now.
Avatar f tn I copied and pasted this info from WebMD. IUn used "urine and ammonia" in the search field. Within the article was a subsection dealing with smell. Here it is. I hope it helps: Odor Changes Urine normally doesn't have a very strong smell. If you get a whiff of something particularly pungent, you could have an infection or urinary stones, which can create an ammonia-like odor. Diabetics might notice that their urine smells sweet, because of excess sugar.
Avatar m tn If you have decompensated cirrhosis, with elevated ammonia levels and hepatic encephalopathy I have see many patients say they have been prescribed Lactulose http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a682338.html But you definitely need to have this conversation with your liver specialist .
Avatar f tn Hypermagnesemia, hypomagnesemia, and increased tendon reflexes have been reported in infants whose mothers were using aluminum and magnesium containing antacid products chronically and in high or excessive doses during their pregnancy. No congenital defects have been reported with the use of simethicone. Animal studies with simethicone-coated cellulose suspension have not revealed maternal or fetal toxicity; however, animal studies are not always predictive of human risk.
Avatar f tn Think about it, your body is meant to sweat and this sweating is part of your immune system. What was said about the aluminum and the smelly ingredients is right on the money. Forget that Crystal stuff, too. That one is an illusion and it actually contains high amounts of aluminum. Think, too, how close the arm pits are to lymph nodes, which are also part of your immune system. It's no wonder that the aluminum causes breast cancer. I am a very sensitive person.
Avatar f tn There was a discussion awhile back someone in same situation and one person suggested aluminum foil all over inside it will annoy the cat to where they don't want in may just have to keep en eye on them anyways when baby comes since obviously u won't put baby on foil
Avatar m tn According to Yokel, supra, repeated aluminum exposure paired with aluminum persistence produces aluminum accumulation. Therefore, the neurotoxicity and the long-half life of aluminum have made it a potential therapeutic target for AD. I have a patent in a different field but accidentally found this since it is tagged with the word electrode (which is what my patent is listed with) After reading this I started connecting the dots with some symptoms I and many others are experiencing.
Avatar n tn I smell ammonia. No one else can smell it. This happens off and on and in many different locations. I have read that this happens to people after a weight training session but I don't work out. It has happened when I was just sitting reading a book. I have seen my GP secondary to ill feeling for a year. The only abnormal labs are slightly elevated sed rate and slightly elevated WBC. I have muscle pain and weakness and extreme fatigue. My Doctor says he has no idea what is wrong with me.
190885 tn?1333025891 Take enough lactulose to have 3-4 bowel movements per day and your ammonia level will drop and you will feel better. Normal is 15-60 mcg/dL. It usually that a day or a couple of days for the ammonia levels to drop. I am not sure of your health status. High ammonia levels can also be caused by... *Reye syndrome. *Heart failure. *Kidney failure. *Severe bleeding from the stomach or intestines. Good luck!
Avatar m tn Ammonia odor can be associated with H. pylori. Ammonia can also be associated with urine and fecal material and not due to H. pylori.
Avatar m tn Other mutations, such as MTHFR A1298C, Chronic bacterial infections, and aluminum can also lead to low BH4 levels. Lack of BH4 can lead to mast cell degranulation and possibly mast cell activation disorder (MCAD). Note: While some physicians think the CBS mutation is one of the most important mutations to address, there is very little medical research to support these claims and some doctors in the field disagree.
Avatar m tn High aluminum content can cause digestive disorder, thereby leading to hair loss. High aluminum can be due to the continuous use of aerated drinks in aluminum cans, antacids and perspirant. Drinking water and processed cheese can also be the causes for high aluminum content. Low content of: Selenium: A low content of selenium in hair indicates dietary deficiency. Low selenium levels indicate a weak immune system which might become the reason for scalp disorders and subsequent hair loss.
