This is one of the worst products that you can use. I've been using it every day.
00:00:03
Yeah. So, I'll tell you why. Aerosols use propellants. Propellants are derived from petroleum. And there was a recall
00:00:09
on thousands of products within the last couple years that the propellants were a
00:00:14
source of benzene contamination. And benzene is a known human carcinogen that you do not want to be inhaling because
00:00:21
what you inhale goes to your brain. It goes quickly all over your body through the bloodstream. You don't want to be
00:00:26
delivering a known human carcinogen into your bloodstream. You're just not helping you at all because benzene is
00:00:33
known to cause leukemia in people. So, it's a no-brainer if you want to avoid that to avoid aerosols.
00:00:41
But not only that, if you think about how you're actually applying the product, you're spraying it like this,
00:00:45
right, in a stream and it heads toward your face, then that's also an inhalation risk because there's
00:00:50
particles in there, there's solids in there. You don't want to be inhaling unnecessary things. So, the best option
00:00:56
for deodorant is to look for something that has essential oils and is a rollon or a stick solid.
