Aluminum is one of the lightest metals in existence.
How do you expect anyone to take you seriously when you clearly don't know the most basic aspects of science?
A heavy metal is a member of an ill-defined subset of elements that exhibit metallic properties, which would mainly include the transition metals, some metalloids, lanthanides, and actinides. Many different definitions have been proposed—some based on density, some on atomic number or atomic weight, and some on chemical properties or toxicity.[1] The term heavy metal has been called a “misinterpretation” in an IUPAC technical report due to the contradictory definitions and its lack of a “coherent scientific basis”.

Sorry, but I was alluding to the toxicity which occurs in the brain ...of course, some heavy metals are essential to the brain so I am missing your point...I am not going to bore people with the elements that go into the scientific studies.
To clarify, I do NOT claim to be a scientist. I am a mother, a patriot, and artist. I don’t pretend to be other than that.
I have read numerous articles that scientists have put out—especially concerning child-development. Before I changed my major, child development was it.
Although I may not understand certain “elements”, although at one time I did memorize some of the periodic table, I do trust a variety of scientists to report on their findings in a scientific manner.
Then I listen to my gut. Can I trust this study? Is their a profit motive? Why would Wakefield buck the system when he knows the “rules” on “peer reviews” and grant connections....to getting certain “desired” results. Is their pressure from a large corporation? Is government bought off by anyone? (that can’t ever happen with a virtuous government, huh?)
