I just cleaned mine to get it back to 'new' so I can work on my own patina, seeing as it's pre-loved. I was dubious but the aluminium foil, sodium bicarbonate and salt in boiling water worked a treat. Better than the Hagerty silver dip I also tried.

So I went off and googled;
"Aluminum is often confused with tin, such as tin foil etc. Aluminum has replaced tin in industrial applications, such as for cans. Tin is considered to be toxic to humans, and so is aluminum, but not inherently toxic. It is believed that if they are both absorbed or inhaled by some humans, they can pose an ingestion risk, while aluminum is considered to be related with Alzheimer’s disease.
