Dangers of Using Antiperspirant Deodorant

Dangers of Using Antiperspirant Deodorant

Deodorant and anti-antiperspirant are used to prevent embarrassing social situations. Naturally, smelling nice is part of good personal hygiene.

Most deodorants and anti-perspirants contain aluminium and parabens. There are growing links between the chemicals found in such products and chronic diseases such as Alzheimer's and breast cancer.
aluminium is widely used and you may not be aware of the level of contact with aluminium. It is in anti-perspirants and deodorants. It is in soft drink cans (made of aluminium). It can also be found in medicine such as "buffered aspirins" and is used for many cooking utensils.




In deodorants and anti-perspirants it comes in the form of aluminium chloride or aluminium sulphate, it helps to stop you from sweating. However, sweating is an extremely important function of the body and it serves the purpose of maintaining the body temperature as well as eliminating toxins.
So the idea of stopping perspiration is in opposition to the body's natural health maintaining system. It makes no sense to "stop" perspiration since perspiration is a vital function.

Dr Chris Exley from Keele University, a researcher into the toxicity of aluminium, and awarded a Royal Society University Research Fellowship in the field "The Bioinorganic Chemistry of aluminium and Silicon" said:

Aluminium is a metalloestrogen, it is genotoxic, is bound by DNA and has been shown to be carcinogenic. The confirmed presence of aluminium in breast tissue biopsies highlights its potential as a possible factor in the aetiology of breast cancer
The World health Organization has linked exposure to aluminum to Alzheimer's disease, with higher frequencies of deodorant use corresponding to higher risks of developing Alzheimer's. Unusually high levels of aluminium accumulation has been found in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease. Further, when aluminium is injected into the brains of laboratory animals, the animals develop a neurological disease similar to Alzheimer's.

Then we have parabens which are used as preservatives. The problem with them is that they are similar to oestrogens in their activity and may disrupt the proper functioning or hormones in the body. There are studies showing that parabens have been found in the tumours from breast cancer sufferers. They are mostly found in the area nearest to the underarm in the outer parts of the breast.


Another addition to these cosmetics is mineral oil which is used to block pores, thereby subduing perspiration and preventing the detoxification process.

Chronic exposure can cause gastro-intestinal disturbances, nausea, headache, vomiting, and central nervous depression.

In addition when using spray-based deodorants and anti-perspirants, you inevitably inhale the toxic elements in these products.

So if you shouldn't prevent perspiration, how can you control the smell. Well it comes down largely to what you eat. Is that a surprise? It shouldn't be. Without being overly polite here, if your stool smells differently depending on what type of foods you eat, it should make sense that the smell of your sweat, to some degree or other, will be influenced likewise by what you eat. Lots of caffeine, for example, leads to a pungent type of body odour.

If you adhere to the optimum diet, which consists of mainly vegetables and fruit (80%) and limit the meat and unhealthy (oxidized, pro-inflammatory, polyunsaturated) fat intake, and also reduce the amount of refined carbohydrate intake, your body odour will not smell as bad.

This mean's that you will not have to take such drastic measures as sticking anti-freeze under your armpits, blocking your pores and preventing normal and essential bodily functions such as perspiration. This just makes your body retain the toxins that it is trying to excrete for your own protection and well-being.

As everybody is different, for some people even a change in diet may not be enough and they may find that they need "extra protection" against those embarrassing social situations.

If that is you, then you should try and search for aluminium-free,anti-freeze free, paraben-free cosmetics. There are many natural deodorants available now, so you have to experiment and find out which one works well for you.
Alternatively, ALOE SHIELD DEODORANTS  can be very effective  because it is made with stabilized aloe vera gel, and a gentle blend of ingredients that contains none of the harmful anti-perspirant aluminum salts found in many other deodorants on the market.

Benefits of Aloe Berry Nectar



Aloe Berry Nectar

Benefits of Aloe Berry Nectar

Aloe Berry Nectar contains all of the vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes found in our Aloe Vera Gel, plus the added benefits of cranberry and apple.

Besides their reputation as a cleanser for the urinary tract, cranberries provide a high content of vitamin C. They are also a natural source of pycnogenol, a powerful antioxidant that is particularly useful in maintaining collagen.

Apple juice is noted for its vitamin A and C content, as well as its potassium and pectin. You can drink Aloe Berry Nectar with meals or alone. The delicious flavoring is totally natural, prepared from a blend of fresh cranberries and sweet, mellow apples. Added fructose (a natural fruit sugar) sweetens it just enough to please both adults and children alike.

• All the benefits of Aloe Vera Gel with the sweeter taste of cranberries
• Contains potent antioxidant which has a beneficial effect on the protection of the skin
• Natural source of Vitamin C

Potential Benefits
  • aid digestion
  • help with diarrhea, constipation and calming intestinal irritations.
  • for preventing or reducing urinary tract infections.

Contains :
1.APPLES AND PECTIN

Apple pectin is a soluble dietary fiber that helps maintain digestive health and can lower cholesterol. Pectin may also help prevent colon cancer and gallstones, regulate blood pressure and help treat ulcers and colitis. Juices are often low in fiber, so including pectin differentiates Forever Living Aloe Berry Nectar from other juices.

Apples are high in vitamin C, B6 and K and potassium, magnesium, manganese and copper. The phytonutrients in apples may help regulate blood sugar, because of their high flavonoid content which can slow down the enzymes that convert complex carbohydrates into sugar.

2.CRANBERRIES

Cranberries are high in Vitamin C, E, K, B5 and B6. Cranberries contain proanthocyanidin, an antioxidant flavonoid that can help prevent heart disease and cancer. They also detoxify and support urinary tract health. New research suggests cranberries may help prevent kidney stones, help stroke victims recover and may prevent cancer.

 Fresh cranberries have the highest nutrition content and are in season in the U.S. in October, November and December.

Benefits of Forever Freedom


Benefits of Forever Freedom

Forever Freedom has combined Aloe Vera with substances that are helpful for the maintenance of proper joint function and mobility in a tasty, orange-flavored juice formula.

We've taken Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate - two naturally occurring elements that have been shown to help maintain healthy joint function and mobility - and married them with our stabilized Aloe Vera gel. To this, we've added vitamin C and MSM, a primary source of bio-available sulfur the body needs to maintain healthy connective tissues and joint function.

Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate are natural substances that help maintain the structure and health of cartilage, keeping this natural "shock absorber" well hydrated. They also help keep the lubricating fluid within the joint at the necessary viscosity to allow one surface to glide freely over another. As the body ages, it is less able to produce these natural elements of healthy cartilage which can then lead to "wear and tear" on the joints.

Forever Freedom provides the usually recommended amounts of Glucosamine Sulfate (1500mg), Chondroitin Sulfate (1200mg) plus 750mg of MSM and 250g of Vitamin C per 4oz serving. When combined, G.S., C.S.,Vitamin C and MSM provide the first line of defense against deterioration.

Potential Benefits:
helps prevent the wear and tear on the joints and their further inflammation
Protects against damage to cartilage

Promotes formation of new healthy cartilage
Ingredients know to relive the symptoms of arthritis and muscular rheumatism
Safely combines with conventional drugs
Powerful and fast acting
Suitable for those suffering from joint inflammation, also sports people wishing to prevent wear and tear.



Benefits of Forever Freedom
Key Ingredients have been shown to:
  • Relive pain 
  • Reduce inflammation 
  • Restore mobility 
Glucosamine Sulphate
A natural component of cartilage. It can be proved that oral Glucosamine definitely finds its way into joint cartilage. It is safe and very powerful in that research has shown that 1500mg of Glucosamine Sulphate (found in one 120ml serving of Forever Freedom) is equivalent in pain killing terms to 1200mg (the recommended daily amount) of Ibuprofen the popular NSAID (NON Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug)

Chondroitin Sulphate
Again a naturally occurring substance in cartilage that forms its matrix and so works in combination with Glucosamine to make this healthy and strong shock absorber. Chondroitin also helps maintain the viscosity of the synovial fluid in the joint so it works like thick oil in an engine preventing the moving parts from being ground down by each other.

MSM (Methylsulphonylmethane)
This naturally occurring sulphur compound is found in every cell in the body and is necessary for the manufacture of proteins. Alone, it is a strong analgesic and anti-inflammatory and has been used for many years in successfully treating injured horses.

Benefits of Forever Freedom

You don't have to suffer from joint problems to benefit from Forever Freedom. Anyone can drink this: athletes worried about recovery times; footballers who train every week and need to protect their joints from wear and tear; also cyclists, hikers, skiers, joggers: in fact anyone who wishes to maintain healthy joint function and mobility.

The Critical Omega-3:Omega-6 Balance

There is an important balance that most people do not fully understand when it comes to Omegas. Historically, nutritionally balanced diets contained a healthy ratio of Omegas as 1:1 up to 1:4 DHA:EPA. Unfortunately, many diets include unhealthy levels of Omega-6’s which are traditionally derived from fried foods, vegetable oils, fake butter products, grain-fed animal fat and other modern convenience and processed foods. In addition, many diets are low in fish and Omega-3 consumption, which creates an unhealthy ratio of Omega-6: Omega-3 as high as 30:1! The key to getting back to a healthy ratio of DHA:EPA is increasing Omega-3 consumption and reducing Omega-6 intake.

12 Reasons for Taking Forever Arctic Sea

11. Linked to Positive Mood/ emotional health
