The dangers of antiperspirant

This is a follow-up to the blog titled “Antiperspirant – is it harmful?” on 7/5/2103. If you look on your antiperspirant, you will find a warning on that back label that reads: “Ask a doctor before use if you have kidney disease.” So I asked my doctor, “What’s that all about?” He told me that if a person’s kidneys aren’t functioning properly, the aluminum from the antiperspirant builds up in the body. That’s scary.

Luckily deodorant doesn’t contain any aluminum . Deodorant won’t stop you from sweating, but at least you won’t be stinky and you won’t have to worry about any harmful effects from aluminum.
