I have two cysts in my left breast and have not used any aluminum based deodorant since I was a teenager in the 70s.

I use a natural crystal deodorant that works well (http://www.pitrok.co.uk/push.html). However, the natural mineral of which the crystal is made happens to be a salt of aluminium… it’s hard to get away from it!

Try Addidas deodorant- it’s made with cotton & works reasonably well.

Any suggestions on which mineral-based deoderants that work? I just started trying the crystal deoderant, but I don’t feel like it’s doing such a great job on preventing/masking odor. That and it’s “all natural!” but it still contains aluminum! Just not the chlor-whatever type that’s in regular antiperspirants.

Thanks for writing that post! i had no idea that deoderant could be that bad for my health. I will be checking the ingredients lists now!
