You Should You Use a Non-Aluminum Deodorant
Many people have now switched to a non-aluminum deodorant. Why? There are safety issues surrounding aluminum and according to the National Library of Medicine, there are more than 2000 references about the effects of aluminum, and this research reveals that there are more than 30 known diseases connected to aluminum. Aluminum salts used in most antiperspirants have detrimental effects to mice, dogs, and non-human primates, so what is it doing to humans?
According to Pub Med.gov, US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, "Aluminum is a neurotoxin which affects diverse metabolic reactions."The same source said that it has been shown to cause DNA damage, have adverse epigenetic effects, and also affect the blood-brain barrier.
First recognized as a neurotoxin in 1886, aluminum is the family name to describe aluminum and alum salts. Alum salts are considered part of the aluminum family if they respond to the element AL(aluminum). Mosby's Medical Dictionary states that a neurotoxin is a toxin that acts directly on the tissues of the central nervous system, traveling along the axis cylinders of the motor nerves to the brain. It happenbs to be "A substance that damages, destroys, or impairs the functioning of nerve tissue." (Source: The Gale Encyclopedia of Medicine.)
What's more, according to the International Chemical Safety Card from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adults have died when they ingested 30 grams (1 ounce) of aluminum. It is not only corrosive on ingestion, it irritates the skin, eyes and the respiratory tract. When the World Health Organization in 1993 said, "There is a suspected link between Alzheimer's disease and the toxicity of aluminum."
According to the. U.S. Food and drug Administration,"People with renal dysfunction may not be aware that the daily use of antiperspirant drug products containing aluminum may put them at a higher risk because of exposure to aluminum in the product," The FDA also warns those who have renal dysfunction to consult a doctor before they use an antiperspirant with aluminum.
ASccording to The Journal of Applied Toxicology, March, 2006, and Dr. Ray Sanhelian,"Studies also have demonstrated that aluminium salts can penetrate human underarm skin even if it is unbroken."When applied under the arms, close to the breast, and left on the skin, deodorants with aluminum salts enters the blood stream more easily.
If you look on the ingredient labels of most underarm antiperspirants and deodorants, you will note they contain aluminium salts. Now there is concern that this could increase a woman's risk for breast cancer. Did you know that metals including cadmium and aluminum salts have been shown to exert estrogen-like effects. This promotes the growth of breast cancer cells in the Laboratory, so because we have observed many other substances that can mimic estrogen, such as detergents, pesticides and cosmetics, it is highly possible that aluminium salts could further disrupt normal hormonal signaling in the female breast.
We all looking for safer ways to survive in today's society, so it my be wise to seek a true non aluminum deodorant.
