If you are concerned about the effect of aluminium which is contained in most deodorants you may wish to try one of the many alternatives available.

All are aluminium-free and most also are free from parabens, and there are ones aimed at men, women and some unisex ones.

However it should be stated that as yet, there is no clear link between use of aluminium based deodorants and cancer. Here is Cancer UK's statement on this issue. They also state that there is as yet no confirmed link between the use of parabens and breast cancer either.

Also remember that as these are deodorants, not anti-perspirants, so you will still sweat!

Antiperspirants work by blocking your sweat pores so that you sweat less. And the thing that blocks those pores is the Aluminium salts.

With any of these deooderants you will sweat, but you will smell better.
