According to the American Cancer Society, 40,610 women will die of breast cancer this year.
Breast Cancer is the most common cancer in American women other than the various types of skin cancer.
We apply chemicals to our armpits daily.
We use deodorant every day and some people even apply deodorant multiple times a day. If you’re using Dove, Secret, Old Spice, and even some of Tom’s deodorant, you are still using an aluminum-based deodorant and that is very scary…
I understand that there’s a comfortability we have in staying with these commercial deodorants because “It’s the only thing that works for me.” They advertise these brands so much how could become aware that there are other options out there?

My problem with companies putting this toxic deodorant in our face as if it’s our only option is that it takes me back to how they are secretly killing us through our food.
No, maybe the food doesn’t kill you today or tomorrow, but 10-20 years from now you will reap the medical bills and diseases from it. then, guess who will eventually make more money off of you being in a vulnerable, medicine-dependent state rather than being healthy? Yup. u know
A big problem with society now is that we simply don’t turn over our products anymore to read the ingredients, directions, or warnings. for ex, a majority of these deodorants say, “Do not use on broken skin.” many women who shave their arms then apply deodorant
sad to believe that we as a society view cancer as unpreventable & once we get around the age of 40 it’s not that we expect it, because it has become so normalized. It’s because everything you put on your skin& in your body will either heal you or destroy you in due time
My aunt was diagnosed with DCIS Breast Cancer in 2014. She recovered after tons of chemo, radiation, etc.. We all know how that goes. After all of that treatment, guess what her doctors told her to do? FIND A NATURAL DEODORANT!
The deodorant she was using was linked to causing breast cancer. I am so grateful for them giving her such great advice; however, WHY THE HELL ISN’T THIS ON A COMMERCIAL?
If they are aware that 9/10 times it’s this product we call deodorant that may be the culprit of this cancer then why aren’t we taking this off shelves? Why do we have to wait until after cancer or any illness attacks us just to care about our health?
There are tons of other deodorant options out there. Again, read the ingredients, don’t just look at the label and assume it’s healthier or in any way safe for you if you haven’t checked the facts for yourself.
Tom’s is a major culprit. They’ve branded themselves like they are non-toxic and are a great alternative option, but as you can see, that’s just not the case.
I would give you a list of all the natural deodorant brands I’ve tried over the last 3 years, but none of them compare to keeping it 100% Natural.

Natural Deodorant Alternatives

Limes
Lemons
Apple Cider Vinegar
I know, some of you may think I have really lost my marbles. She’s too far gone into this hippy stuff, but I’m not crazy, I swear. Actually, after not using deodorant for a while I felt like my skin was able to detox from the different products I was using.
How to Apply

Lime/Lemon- Apply a slice of lime/lemon directly to the armpit and rub like its a stick of deodorant.

Apple Cider Vinegar- Apply shaken ACV directly to the armpit with a towel or pad.
It’s best when these are applied directly out of the shower. But not right after you shave, that juice and vinegar will give it a sting. However, It works fine for me any time of the day I apply it. I usually keep pre-cut limes in a container
sometimes I forget to apply it to my armpits when I get downstairs. I always stop by a drive-thru and ask for a lemon slice. Limes/Lemons and ACV contain natural antibacterial compounds that kill odor-causing bacteria while leaving behind good and healthy bacteria.
Remember to add key lime to spring water daily to Alkalinize it.
You will reap many health benefits including killing odors and candida from the inside out! chv <3
last thing, ladies. cut. it. OUT.
