Have you ever taken a minute or two and read the label on your deodorant/antiperspirant? The list is absolutely mind boggling, with synthetic perfumes and things like aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex. What exactly is that anyway? Besides the obvious word, aluminum, almost no one except chemists and scientists know what some of those ingredients are. Speaking of aluminum, it’s been shown in some research studies that aluminum leads to breast cancer. Still other studies show that aluminum collects in the brain over time and might be the major cause of Alzheimer’s, bone formation disorders, kidney problems, and seizures.

The main purpose of antiperspirant is to stop your pores from emitting sweat. Sweat contains toxins, which is why sweating is a good means of detox. When you can’t sweat, those toxins are forced to stay inside the body. It’s not surprising then that antiperspirants are behind a buildup of toxins, combined with aluminum, and this can lead to hormonal imbalances.

If you are using those toxic deodorants and/or if you are having problems with hormonal imbalances, then it’s time to choose an all-natural, aluminum-free deodorant.
