Human sweatHuman sweat itself is largely odorless until it is fermented by bacteria that thrive in hot, humid environments such as the human underarm. The armpits are among the consistently warmest areas on the surface of the human body

Deodorant and antiperspirantThere are two primary types of

products used to control body

odor. The first , deodorants ,

reduce body odor by killing

the odor-causing bacteria .

These products do not affect the

amount of perspiration the body

produces

Antiperspirants, on the other

hand, inhibit the activity

of sweat glands so

less moisture is

produced.

Deodorants are considered to be

cosmetic products because they

only control odor ,

antiperspirants

are actually drugs because they

affect the physiology of the body

Aluminum

Aluminum chloride, an aluminum salt that is commonly used in antiperspirants,. Aluminum itself adversely affects the

blood-brain barrier , is capable of causing DNA damage

What about the Aluminium in Deodorants?

All aluminium is part of our everyday diet.

To put it in perspective the aluminium in deodorants makes up less than two per cent of our daily intake. Furthermore there is no evidence to suggest that in any way has an effect on our

DNA.

With regard to non- aluminium based deodorants, you have to remember that without the aluminium you will not be tackling the issue of perspiration. This is the difference between a deodorant and an

anti-perspirant.

or a healthy alternative to standard

Forms of deodorants and antispirants.

1- Usually contained in aerosol cans, these are pressurized liquid deodorants .

These are convenient for freshening up many times a day.

2-Roll-on - This is the first type of commercially available deodorant. The container has a ball in the middle

,which rolls to apply the liquid from the container to the skin.

3-Gel - This type of deodorant is

clear when applied, which is preferred

when you want to avoid staining your

skin or clothes.

4-Spray Stick - A solid deodorant that

is paste-like in consistency. It is extruded

from the deodorant container and spread

on to the armpits.

WARNING!Always make sure to observe your skin when trying a new product ,so as soon as you see redness, feel itchy or experience a burning sensation, stop using the product and wash immediately with mild soap and water. This is important because these unpleasant symptoms can occur even if you don't have allergies.

Why women should avoid using antiperspirants?

Women should concider not using any antiperspirants or deodorants that containing aluminum salts because they block the pores ,so aluminum salts can get into breast tissue

These salts are more concentrated in the areas of the breast where cancer is more likely to develop

on the side and towards the armpit

So it is safety to get a natural Aloe Vera

product that contains no

aluminium salts.
