Whats the difference – Deodorant or Antiperspirant?
Are you one of those people that think a deodorant and an antiperspirant are the same thing? Well, they are not. Antiperspirants work because of the aluminum compounds and other harsh chemicals that are used to clog the pores to reduce the level of sweat by temporarily blocking the bacteria from reaching the sweat glands. There is a growing concern about aluminum compounds and their absorption by the body causing health concerns by accumulating in the brain and also in breast tissue. Deodorants work by neutralizing the malodor, while not interfering with sweating, the natural cooling process of the body.
