Guys, you need to look at the copper amounts in your supplements.
Seems there is some association with high copper and Alzheimer’s disease.
They used to think it was aluminum but just recently it is suggested copper is the cause.

Most vitamin supplements contain 2mg of copper and if you are taking many of the multiples then you are probably over the top on copper.
Worse yet if you are taking a mineral supplement, again those have 2mg of copper.
Now to make things worse, many water pipes are made of copper and if you have acidic (low PH) water then you run a risk of leeching from the pipes into your water, making this even worse.
