> ===============================================

>

> Sweating over the ingredients contained in most

> antiperspirants and

> deodorants?

>

> The Bite:

> Aluminum, the active ingredient in most

> antiperspirants, raises more

> controversy than an Olympic judging committee.

> Although the judges are

> still out, aluminum has been linked to cancer and

> Alzheimer’s disease,

> so for peace of mind, try some natural deodorants.

>

>

> The Benefits:

> - Natural odor protection. Contrary to popular

> belief, sweat is

> odorless. The bacterium that accumulates on skin to

> break down the

> sweat is what causes odor. Natural deodorants

> neutralize smells and

> provide antiseptic action against bacteria.

> - Paraben-free. Parabens are synthetic preservatives

> found in many

> personal care products that have been linked to

> various cancers.

> - Aluminum-free. Scientists have found abnormally

> high amounts of

> aluminum, zinc, and other metals in brain tissue of

> people with

> Alzheimer's. It is unknown whether Alzheimer's

> causes these

> accumulations, or vice versa.

>

>

> Personally Speaking

> Jen swears by Alba Botanica – which is the only one

> that she says

> truly combats stress sweat. Heather’s lucky if she

> remembers to

> shower.

> - Alba Clear Enzyme Deodorant - a lovely lavender

> scent and will get

> you through sweaty situations ($6).

> the arms.
