You may have started to use, or planning to go all natural with deodorants. The majority of Deodorants and antiperspirants on store shelves contain aluminum & chemicals called parabens. And, the health community has advised, that putting these under the arms where they can be easily absorbed into the bloodstream may be harmful. The armpits are also access points to the lymph nodes, and the chemicals from odor-fighting products may affect the body’s immune system responses. Research undertaken over the past 15 years has indicated a possible association between the use of deodorants & antiperspirants and breast cancer.  Researchers were unable to find sufficient information to prove a possible link, but advocated the need for further study. The studies that have looked for a connection between antiperspirants/deodorants and breast cancer have produced conflicting results.  Because of this, it is probably best for women with an increased risk for breast cancer to stop using these products altogether or use them sparingly. With that said, it was time for me to try some new no-aluminium/natural products. But, more research was needed.
