Default Teflon, aluminum and dementia

Hi, guys!

I seem to recall an article not long ago about research that claims that
nonstick materials used in cookware can flake off (microscopic pieces, mind
you), be carried over to the food, and be ingested, and can/will ultimately
cause Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. This also applied to aluminum
cookware.

My girlfriend Kelly strongly advocates that I get rid of pots and pans made
of or with those materials, and get stainless steel or cast iron. My
question is, just what is the current verdict on that?
