The first thing you need to do when you buy a deodorant or a product that has entered your skin or body is reading ingredients. They usually have a very small print on the back of the label. If you have problems reading small prints, you can carry around magnifying glass around you and read it before you buy. This is important. Because things attached to the skin are absorbed directly in the bloodstream. Harmful ingredients in your blood may potentially have a fatal effect on your body.
Here are the seven ingredients to avoid when choosing your deodorant:
Aluminum chlorohydrate, aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex grease or any aluminum compound. Aluminum is absorbed through the skin and accumulates in the body. The association between aluminum and Alzheimer's disease is suggested.
Parabens (methyl, ethyl, propyl, benzyl and butyl) It is derived from toluene which is all toxic petrochemical products. Toluene is toxic if swallowed or inhaled. It is also harmful if it comes into contact with the skin. There is some evidence that repeated exposures to toluene may cause reproductive harm. Since 2000, 13 research studies have shown that various types of parabens act like estrogens in animal and tissue culture. Estrogen is known to promote cancer cell proliferation.
Triclosan It is skin irritating and may cause contact dermatitis. It can kill not only healthy bacteria but also harmful bacteria. It may contain carcinogenic contaminants. It is stored in body fat and classified as pesticide by the FDA.
talc If asbestos fiber is included, it is classified as a carcinogen by International Research Cancer Research. The amount of asbestos fibers in cosmetic grade talc is not regulated. If talc is listed on the label, there is no way to know if it contains asbestib fibers.
Propylene glycol It is quickly absorbed through the skin and is a penetration enhancer. It may cause delay in allergic reactions. According to NIOSH, propylene glycol is a neurotoxin, which can cause damage to the kidneys and liver. EPA states that the possibility of carcinogenicity has not been thoroughly investigated.
silica It is a skin irritant. It may be contaminated with a crystalline crystal that is a carcinogen.
Stress (N can be any number such as 100), it is plant-derived but reacts with known human carcinogen, ethylene oxide (ethoxylated).
Instead choose vegetable glycerin, natural antiseptics such as bioflavonoids and moss, herbs and herbal extracts, deionized water and distilled water, green tea, aloe vera, baking soda, essential oil etc deodorant.
Words of caution: The plant extract described on the label can already contain paraben and propylene glycol. You do not need to put these on the label. Herbs supplied to manufacturers are rarely parabens and other synthetic antiseptics unless extracted with vegetable glycerin. To confirm that the products you purchase are healthy and contain no such harmful chemicals, please call the deodorizer manufacturer and request detailed information.
