The Harmful Effects of Conventional Deodorants Memory Loss and Breast Cancer - Conventional deodorants are often made with antipersperats such as aluminum. a metal, which is used to help block the sweat from escaping the pores. Aluminum has been linked to breast cancer in women and has also been linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease. Kills Your Microbiome - Besides this, antiperspirants use antimicrobial agents to kill bacteria that create unpleasant odors. This effects the bacterial balance in your armpits, leading to an even more foul-smelling sweat problem. Research found that those who used antiperspirants saw an increase in Actinobacteria, which are largely responsible for foul-smelling armpit odor. Hormone Disruption: Parabens are a family of synthetic preservatives that are often found in deodorants as well. Parabens mimic the activity of estrogen in the body. Since estrogen promotes the growth of breast cancer cells and a woman is eight times more likely to develop breast cancer in the part of the breast closest to the underarm, scientists are studying the connection. Although parabens have estrogen-like properties, the estrogens that are made in the body are hundreds of times stronger. So, natural estrogens (or those taken as hormone replacement) are much more likely to play a role in breast cancer development.
