Surely you, like most people, start the day by brushing your teeth, taking a quick shower and then running to the antiperspirant! Surely you have heard something about the high percentage of alcohol in its composition, but what will seem to you not so credible is that using antiperspirant every day, does more harm than good.
We know it's unimaginable to give up, but you should still be aware of what might happen if you do not use it anymore.
1. May have a positive effect on reproductive health
When choosing an antiperspirant, make sure the ones you are considering are comfortable and comfortable with your skin. We often forget that it contains many substances that are harmful to the skin and health. For example, phthalates - the element that makes the prolonged antiperspirant effect possible - affect the imbalance of your hormones. Something like this consequently also affects reproduction.
2. Unpleasant body odor fades naturally
Believe it or not, by removing the deodorant from use, even the smell of sweat will be felt less. Frequent use of it allows bacteria to be produced and multiplied making the odor of sweat even stronger.
3. Affects the natural microbiome of the skin
There are a variety of microorganisms that live in your skin and a good portion of them are beneficial to health. By using antiperspirants to eliminate odors we weaken the skin microbiome and block the sweat glands. If you can not give up 100% of it, choose products that have a low percentage of aluminum.
3. You probably do not need it as much as you think
Let’s face it we have become accustomed to using it, but chances are we don’t need it at all. Scientists have discovered that a gene called ABCC11 determines whether or not humans have the substance responsible for body odor. A good portion of people do not have it, but use it regularly without knowing that you do not need it! Therefore it is best to do a test for a few days. If you do not feel anything uncomfortable, you should remove the fixation with antiperspirant.
