Product used by the majority of the population besides, the deodorant finds largely its place in the shelves of the large surfaces. With coconut, natural, vanilla, strawberry or autumn wood scent, the proposals of chemical fragrances are huge and each family usually finds its happiness: masculine flavor for dad, island flavor for mom and milk sweetness for teens.
With dubious composition, deodorants have a chemically dangerous combination for the body. Indeed, most of them are composed of aluminum salts.

Aluminum salts have the ability to reduce pore size and therefore regulate perspiration by reducing the flow of perspiration through the reduction of sweat glands.
When we know that the body has 5 emunctories of which the skin is a part, we wonder where is the interest to block this door of exit of toxins. In fact, our perspiration allows us to eliminate toxic overloads mainly from crystalloidal waste. Therefore, the use of deodorant with aluminum salts prevents us from purifying our body properly.
In addition, aluminum salts are responsible for large numbers of cancers. However, consumers are not properly warned and health authorities do not protect the population as they should.
Results? Diseases and cancers that appear every year, especially in women who are most affected.
