Deodorants, antiperspirants, why is it bad for you? First the deodorant and antiperspirant
that you buy at your drugstore or supermarket is made to clog your lymph nodes, which are
the sweat glands under your arms and preventing the work of the body to excrete toxins, and
thats not a good point. Second point is that the deodorants are loaded
with chemicals. The main ones that are common to most deodorant that are not homemade of
bought in a natural organic store is aluminum. Aluminum as been linked with Alzheimer's disease,
you will certainly not get Alzheimer from your deodorant alone but it will load just
more aluminum into your system that your body is already daily exposed from kitchen products
and cookwares and bathrooms products and the environment. I think you got the picture here.
Ok! Then manufacturers use Paraben as a preservative and Paraben is known as an hormone disruptor
for both men and women. Another hormone disruptor will be a chemical called Toluene, present
in commercial deodorants and antiperspirants. Tuluene is a toxic petrochemical ingredients. Endocrine
disruptors like those we just talk about and could be sadly connected to breast cancer.
Beside yourAlso notice that your underarm and the breast of a woman are just inches
away from each other. Think about that! Some other chemical enemies will be Propylene
Glycol, a human body penetration, enhancer agent also found in antifreeze.
Then, Triclosan an antibacterial chemical that creates resistant bacteria and Steareth,
which is known as a human carcinogen. To finish, there is talc, that has been listed
as a possible carcinogen also, as well as synthetic fragrances derived from petroleum.

fragrances and , I am talking about woman personal hygiene products mostly. Girls, you
