Deodorant and cancer?

Does Deodorant cause cancer?

  • I heard that deodorant with Aluminum chlorohydrate can cause cancer. I have the "Kiehl's superbly efficient anti-perspirant & deodorant cream". The back of the bottle has a quite a few warnings that are a little random like "ask a doctor before use if you have kidney disease". How does something that you put on your armpits end up in your kidney? (it has 16% of aluminum chlorohydrate in a 75 ml bottle) if that means anything. Can someone please explain this to me

  • Answer:

    Everything we put in our bodies even absorbed through the skin travels through the liver and lots through the kidneys. I have always been concerned with putting a metal derivative right next to the lymphatic glands under the arms. There is no known connection with aluminum chlorohydrate and any serious health issues but research continues. Luck. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_chlorohydrate#Common_uses_and_toxicity

If in doubt don't use it, it's not like you have to taste it. Find one without aluminum in it, most don't anymore, you must have tried hard to find one that does. You absorb things through your skin, that's why we were gloves. Think of nicotine and pain blocking patches, how would they work unless your skin absorbed them? Aluminum thing has always been on the "iffy" things as far as causing cancer.
