Can anti-perspirants and/or deoderants be harmful to my health?

96>Every now and then I hear reports of certain ingredients (aluminum oxide?) in anti-perspirants and deoderants that could be linked to cancer. How concerned should I be? Are there types of deoderants that are "safe"?
Reply:the story goes that the aluminium oxide enters the body through shaving nicks and can clog the lymph nodes, causing cancer. however the study that suggested this was a relatively small one and thin on evidence. others studies are researching further into it, but so far there has been no evidence that they are harmful
Reply:Not at all. If you don't use deodorant then THAT can be very harmful to your health.
Reply:I too have heard that the aluminum compounds are bad, and they can go right into your system thru your sweat glands, so I don't use deodorants. It is not a problem if you bathe every day.
Reply:My friend is allergic to that kind of stuff. So I think if you are allergic it may trigger cancer. But I have never ever heard that. I use secret and I have no idea what ingrediants it has. I just use it with no worries.





Just don't worry. I have learned that. I have HIV, my brother's in juvi, my mom was diagnosed with cancer. I have learned not to worry and that life is short so enjoy it while you have it.





God Bless!
Reply:Deodorants are okay but the anti-perspirants are not. They suppress the activity of our sweat glands, which is not normal.
Reply:I heard if you are a woman it can sontribute to breast cancer. But the % is probably so small. They do make an all natural deoderant and it doesn't really work
Reply:ive read that anti-perspirant are harmful because it prevents your underarm from discharging wastes(that's why underarm smells)...it just collects in there and evetually can lead to tumors or cancer...
Reply:Well there is a speculation - specially when you use the deo stick. What you can do is use the body sprey's or roll overs - any natural product would be the best recommended. Try Body Shop !
Reply:It's not true, but if you're still concerned about those ingredients try an all natural version. I like the Kiss My Face brand.
