A Final Word

From an ethical perspective most of us would like to avoid testing on animals, which makes the deodorants in this list an obvious choice.

From a health perspective, we should all be concerned, though not alarmed, with the suggested link between aluminum and breast cancer.

A laboratory analysis of tissue from 17 women who had undergone mastectomies as part of their treatment for breast cancer found aluminum in both breast tissue and breast fat.

The researchers also found that the aluminum content was higher in the outer regions of the breast than in the inner regions. They hypothesized that the use of aluminum-based deodorants could be a factor (1).

Research is in its infancy, but avoiding aluminum in deodorants would naturally be the sensible thing to do.

Research on ‘the effect of habitual and experimental antiperspirant and deodorant product use on the armpit microbiome' found the following:

Antiperspirant use strikingly alters armpit bacterial communities, making them more species rich. Because antiperspirants only came into use within the last century, we presume that the species of bacteria they favor are not those historically common in the human armpit.

Whether these species may interfere with the function of beneficial skin symbionts, contribute antibiotic resistance genes, prove benign, or perhaps even confer beneficial effects to human health remains an intriguing avenue for further study (2).

Suffice to say, where possible, using natural plant extracts on your skin instead of chemicals is a far healthier choice.
