Aluminum compounds are used in antiperspirants to temporarily block sweat glands and reduce sweating.


You’ll often see ingredients like:


• aluminum chlorohydrate

• aluminum zirconium

• aluminum sesquichlorohydrate


SPILL IT STRAIGHT --Your body sweats for a reason.


Sweating helps regulate temperature and supports natural detoxification pathways.

Blocking that process daily may not be something your body loves.

Aluminum can:

-Disrupt hormones

-Irritate skin

-Cause cancer

-Disrupt the body's natural detox process

SO WHAT CAN YOU DO INSTEAD?

• Switch to an aluminum-free deodorant

• Support detox pathways with hydration + minerals

• Expect a transition period—your body may need time to adjust

YOUR TOX SWAP CHALLENGE

Flip over your deodorant today. If you see aluminum compounds on the label…

consider trying an aluminum-free swap for a few weeks and notice how you feel. Note-many non-toxic deodorants have baking soda. Sometimes that compound can be too astringent. If that is the case for you, try one without.
