Why One Should Use Aluminum Free Deodorant

By Lisa Snyder


Toxins in the body are naturally eliminated through various ways. One of the ways of elimination is through the skin. Elimination of toxins through the skin results into a naturally unpleasant body odor, which everybody has. To manage this odor, most people use deodorants, which they apply everyday so that they have a better smell. It is important to choose a product that is not toxic, but still produces a long lasting effect on the human body.

The talk about toxin free deodorants always cause people to think about one class of products. These class is the class of aluminum free deodorant products. Many claims have been put forward as to why avoidance of aluminium-based deodorants is important. One of these reasons is that they cause cancer. However, no evidence currently exists to link cancer to the products, even though research in that direction is ongoing.

However, there are many other reasons why these products should be avoided and instead natural alternatives used. The first reason is that aluminium-based products mask the smell by producing a sweet odor. On the other hand, natural products contain baking soda. Baking soda is important in the management of body odor because it prevents the formation of odor-causing bacteria. Therefore, natural products provide a better solution for odor management.

Although no solid evidence exists to link aluminium deodorants to cancer, Alzheimer disease is strongly correlated to high aliminium diseases. The implication is that Alzheimer disease may be caused by a high concentration of aluminium in the human body. Therefore, avoiding the consumption of aluminium is advisable, especially as cases of Alzheimer increase. Today, many young people suffer from Alzheimer disease.

It is important to avoid aluminum-containing deodorants especially when one is pregnant. These deodorants introduce toxins into the body and just like drinking and smoking are discouraged while pregnant, application of aluminium deodorants should also be avoided. This is because what goes into the system of the mother also goes into the body of the child. Passing such a heavy metal like aluminium to the unborn child may have negative consequences.

Using natural deodorants helps to improve the health of the skin. On the other hand, applying heavy commercial deodorants results in tear and wear of the skin in the long run. The skin becomes dry and chaffed eventually. Similarly, the presence of parabens, which are estrogenic in these products make them dangerous. Absorption of estrogen through the skin results in imbalance of body hormones.

The metal additives contained in chemical deodorants may not be safe for people with sensitive skins. When applied, these products are likely to cause rashes, lumps, or hives among other adverse effects. The reaction from chemical deodorants is particularly adverse. This is contrasted from natural products which cause no adverse effects in most cases.

Finally, in terms of price comparison, natural products are relatively cheaper. That is why they are more worthwhile to consider. Stores that deal with related products sell them to the public. One should always check the list of ingredients on the container before purchasing.
