Allergy Concerns
Sodium Caseinate, a milk derivative, is a form of MSG (monosodium glutamate).
Aluminum in the form of Sodium Aluminum Silicate may be a concern for those with brain disorders such as Alzheimers.
Malt Extract will be a concern for celiac as it is a wheat derivative.
is sodium aluminum silicate harmful in organo gold coffee
Research has shown a strong connection between aluminum and Alzheimer’s disease.

Based on this and other studies, I would say yes. Absolutely. Sodium aluminum silicate is harmful in any food product.
I would have to ask, do you use any salt? do you buy products with salt? if so you are consuming it anyway! In moderation,like most things it is safe and has been around since the beginning of time. there are a lot bigger hazardous to worry about being consumed at a much higher and damaging rate!
You are confusing the salt that we know as table salt with compounds scientifically known as salts.
Table salt is sodium chloride.
Not all “salts” are edible or safe.
My question is why is sodium aluminum silicate in the product in the first place?
That’s right, why is it there? Need to get a healthy coffee without it. This is available.
We have coffee with Ganoderma, the coffee tastes better, does not have Aluminum in it, and does not have vegetable fat in it. How can it be “healthy” with these questionable ingredients?
is this coffee good for weight lost
Absolutely. Coupled with a proper diet and good exercise, Ganoderma coffee can be very good for weight loss.
I have an Organo Gold package in fron of me and it has aluminum sodium silicate in it and Ganaderma. How can this be good or ok? Is there a caffeine free coffee with Ganaderma?
All of the ganoderma coffee I have seen have about the same amount of caffeine as regular coffee. The ganoderma helps neutralize some of the negative effects of the caffeine. Your best option for ganoderma coffee is from a company called SeneniGy.

How come you only posted about the coffee? How about its tea? Was this just a blog to try and sell a different type of gamoderma beverage? Thanks for the coffee information though. I’ll ask my biology and chemistry profs about this.
This blog is about mushroom coffee. There are two main types: Real brewed coffee with 14 mushrooms and instant ganoderma coffee.
OrGano Gold green tea is, I believe, certified organic.
Everybody should do researches before making any kind of statements. I check on http://www.PubMed.gov for scientif facts about it and i find a study from 1994 where they suggest the investigation of the possible use of silicates as a therapeutic agent in Alzheimers pacients. You can check the cientific study here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7972040 . The name of study is: Precipitation and characterization of an aluminosilicate from AlCl3-Na2SiO3-HCl in serum, of interest for Alzheimer disease.
There are studies that indicate a link to aluminum and Alzheimer’s.
Do you have information that is in plain English that does not require a PhD to understand?
