WHAT ARE THE DANGERS OF ALUMINUM AND OTHER CHEMICALS FOUND IN STANDARD DEODORANTS?

Numerous studies have suggested a link between aluminum absorption and Alzheimer's, Lou Gehrig's, and Parkinson's diseases. Studies have also suggested links between aluminum and several types of cancer, osteoporosis, anemia, headaches, kidney problems, liver problems, gastrointestinal problems, extreme nervousness, bone softening, decreased calcium absorption, muscle aches, and even colic and rickets in babies.

Many deodorants contain propylene glycol, which, unbeknownst to most consumers, is commonly used in automobile anti-freeze. Alcohols and peroxides found in many so-called “natural” deodorants, whether derived naturally or synthetically, are known irritants to human skin.

Both glyceryl laurate and sodium stearate are known to be reactive to skin, especially in those with allergies to glycerin or stearates and laurates. Studies have also suggested links between parabens and breast cancer.

Jungleman All-Natural Deodorant is 100% aluminum free, in addition to NOT CONTAINING any of the aforementioned chemicals found in other standard and so-called “natural” deodorants, which means you can be worry free and odor free at the same time.
