An Update on the Breast Cancer - Deodorant Controversy
Share and Enjoy: 
. . . more reasons to choose a safe deodorant
Last year Newsclips reported on a British researcher, Dr. Philippa Darbre, who observed a parallel rise in breast cancer in the upper outer quadrant of the breast (where deodorant is applied) and increased underarm cosmetic use in Britain, Scotland and Wales. In a 2004
study, she found accumulations of parabens, preservatives found in many underarm deodorants, in all malignant breast tumors she analyzed. Parabens are known endocrine disruptors and suspected carcinogens.
Now a new study from Darbre and co-researcher, surgeon Lester Barr, again found parabens in the breast tissue of all 40 participants in the study, women who had had
mastectomies due to breast cancer.
As explained in my book Never Fear Cancer Again, many factors contribute to developing cancer; however there are only two fundamental causes for all disease, nutrient deficiency and toxicity. Parabens are one of thousands of harmful chemicals in today's environment causing widespread toxic overload. If we want to be healthy, we've got to do all we can to avoid toxins, and body care products are a major source.
In deodorant alone, many other common ingredients besides parabens have been classified as possible, probable or definite carcinogens. These include aluminum, phthlates, propylene glycol, steareth-n, talc and triclosan. Other deodorant ingredients are neurotoxins; others cause respiratory or immune problems.
Fortunately there are safe body care products available, and you don't have to be a biochemist to discover them. I've done the research work already and can guarantee that the personal care products we sell at Beyond Health are completely safe as well
as being highly effective.
If you want a safe deodorant, try our IndiuMagic, the most ingenious, effective, inexpensive and safest deodorant I've found in years of searching. This wonderful deodorant contains only two completely safe ingredients: indium sulfate and water. It's
safe enough to be approved by the FDA for oral use! It works by increasing the surface tension of water on the skin, making it difficult for odor-causing bacteria to survive and grow. If you don't wash it off, it continues to work, which makes it very economical. Just spray a couple of times under DRY arms, and you're good to go until your next shower! IndiuMagic can also be used to control foot odor, toe fungus and athlete's foot.
