Vanilla Mint Deodorant Cream by Bella Organics

  Why Choose a natural deodorant?
Do you know what chemicals are in most deodorants?  Well, I didn't know all of the bad ones. After some research I found out. And wow it's scary. I received this product for purpose of inspection and unbiased review. All opinions and pictures are mine.

most deodorants contain the following ingredients:
● Aluminum - aka. Aluminum salts, aluminum chloride, aluminum zirconium, aluminum chlorohydrate,and aluminum hydroxy bromide.  - prevents us from sweating. Aluminum ions are drawn into the cells that line the sweat ducts.  Aluminum is a known neurotoxin, linked to breast cancer, and neurological disorders such as Alzheimers.
● other deodorant ingredients to avoid:
* propylene glycol
* disodium EDTA - penetration enhancers, they help harsh ingredients absorb faster
● Triclosan - anti-bacterial also used in hand sanitizer -it us a powerful endocrine disruptor,  suspected to contribute to the the development of certain strains of antibiotic resistant bacteria.
● Talc powder - absorbs moisture keeping skin dry - Suspected carcinogen
● Fragrance - Synthetic fragrance contains pthalates,  chemicals used in plastics. They accumulate in the body and are linked to hormone disruption, possible birth defects, infertility and some cancers.
● BHT - Butylated Hydroxy Toluene - has been linked to nervous system effects, causes hyper-activity in children and a suspected carcinogen.
