The Stinky Story of Deodorant


Every one uses deodorants while knowing about the cancerous effects of deodorants on our body. Modern day deodorants have 7 deadly ingredients that should be avoided. While buying deodorant read the ingredients. Deodorants brands put them in very tiny print on the back of the Deodorant's can. Reading you deodorants ingredients is critical because what you put on your skin while using deodorants can be absorbed directly into your bloodstream & can have potentially deadly effects on your body.

Below are your 7 ingredients to avoid when choosing your deodorant:


Aluminum compounds
from deodorants is absorbed through the skin and accumulates in the body. It has been suggested that there is an association between aluminum and Alzheimer's disease.

Parabens in deodorant are all derived from toluene, a toxic petrochemical derivative harmful in contact with the skin. There is some evidence that repeated exposure to toluene may cause reproductive harm. Since 2000, 13 research studies have shown that various types of parabens in our deodorants act like estrogen in animals and in tissue culture. Estrogen is known to drive the growth of cancerous cells.

Deodorants with Triclosan is a skin irritant and may cause contact dermatitis. It may kill healthy bacteria as well as harmful bacteria. It may contain carcinogenic contaminants. It is stored in body fat and is classified as a pesticide by the FDA.

Talc is classified as a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer if it contains asbestiform fibers. The quantity of asbestiform fibers in cosmetic grade talc is unregulated. If talc is listed on the deodorant's label, there is no way of knowing whether or not it contains asbestiform fibers.

Propylene glycol absorbs from usage of deodorants is a penetration enhancers. It may cause delayed allergic reactions. NIOSH says propylene glycol is a neurotoxin and may cause kidney or liver damage. The EPA says it's not fully investigated for carcinogenic potential.

Silica in deodorant is a skin irritant. It may be contaminated with crystalline quartz, which is a carcinogen.

Steareth-n (n may be any number like say 100 in deodorants), may be vegetable derived but is reacted with ethylene oxide (ethoxylated), a known human carcinogen.

Very few herbs supplied to deodorant manufacturers are free of synthetic preservatives unless they are extracted in vegetable glycerin. To make sure that the products you buy are healthy and free of these harmful chemicals.

But I'm not hippy enough to stink :(

Choose deodorants with ingredients like vegetable glycerin, natural preservatives like bioflavanoids and lichen, herbs or herbal extracts, de-ionized water or distilled water, green tea, aloe vera, baking soda, Alum and essential oils. Better yet use these natural products directly and raw.....they workkkk.

Choke America Choke


Choke America Choke! Should be the final slogan of John Mccain/Obama as they wish to choke tribal areas of Pakistan with military offense (Possibly bombing) to stop the so called talibanization and find Bin-laden. American’s on the other hand are already chocked with the flop voluntary-pollution reduction program and fund drops in social welfare programs.
Choked with intoxicating Red Tape and Lack of Interest Gasses the office of inspector General Environmental Protection Agency [EPA] coughed about how the efforts to control potent greenhouse gases emitted from aluminum smelters, landfills, coal mines and large farms are being hindered as the Bush administration struggles to fund choked war fronts in Iraq & Afghanistan. The deadliest choke comes with the part where White House actually seems swollen with pride of the fact that the U.S. is "well on track to meet an 18% drop in carbon dioxide emissions by 2012. The cough from the EPA’s Inspector generals office did not sound like addressing the most plentiful greenhouse gas — carbon dioxide — or the biggest sources of it, transportation and electric power plants. The IG report also sneezed about additional policy options required for reducing emissions beyond the White House's target. But since the Bush administration has adamantly refused to apply the Clean Air Act to regulating GHG emissions (despite the coughing by the Supreme Court to do so).......................!?
But hay who can blame an establishment that is committed towards shoving a customizable design of democracy down whole world’s throat at the cost of national health and social welfare as most probably it’s the only chocked frame of mind they process with.
Americans should start shopping for oxygen cylinders & upgrade there Medical insurances before The Carlyle Group invests into them. As Obama’s new war front in Pakistan will take them no where but Asthma practitioners.
