Interestingly...nickel has been implicated as being present in high
concentrations in the prostate of men with BPH.  It indicated that the
bacteria there survive on nickel as a requirement.  Removing the nickel by
chelation relieves the hypertrophy.
I've not heard that it is carcinogenic.

Subject: Re: CS>Staniless steel...watch out.

You may want to re-think stainless steel.  A recent article
by Dr. Mercola reports that  Nickel and other metals found
in SS can be very harmful. He was suggesting ceramic coated
metal as the best material to cook in. He went on to say
that if you get SS pots try to get the ones that are still
magnetic as they do not contain as much Nickel.  Apparently
Nickel is very carcinogenic and contains other metal that
can leach out depending on how acid or alkaline the food is
and how long it is in contact with it as well as cooking
temp. I almost bought a new set of  SS cooking pots  after
reading that  I am glad I held off.  Now to  find  some good
porcelain steel pots and pans.. Alan

Yes that is what I was thinking of, plasitcizers. And I was
under the
impression that the hard plastic, like bottled water comes
in, did not
out gas the pasticizer. But come to think of it the hard
plastic
collection bottle that came with my counter top distiller
did smell at
first. I threw out the first few batches of distilled water
that I made,
until I could no longer smell it.

Having had MCS in the past I know that even minute amounts
of a VOC can
enter directly into brain tissue via the Trigeminal and
Olfactory
Cranial Nerves that run through the nasal septum. Even a
very few
molecules may affect someone with MCS and will contribute to
the body's
total load in anyone. Whether it is a significant
contribution relative
to the other exposures we have is a point of debate.

When I collect distilled water from the distiller it comes
out near
boiling so it could be further drawing out any available
plasticizer in
the time that it is cooling.

Hmmmm . . . what to do, that bottle fits the set up, an open
vessel
might allow too much of the steam to excape.

Time to buy that larger stainless steel distiller I have had
my eye on
perhpas.
