Similar to curing osteoporosis, fluoride has been proposed as a preventive measure(sic) against Alzheimer's Disease(AD) based on the presumption that by direct competition in the gut, fluoride would decrease aluminum uptake(Kraus and Forbes, 1992). Rather, such antagonism(Li, et al. 1990) is due to the formation of aluminum-fluoride complex(Li, et al. 1991). 6, record 1, English, - aluminium%20fluoride%20complex
