Know what is in your body spray
While almost all of us want to use bodyspray on an everyday basis, we tend to negelct the possible side-effects that most body spray can have. Since our skin is porous, when we apply something, it tends to absorb it. Especially after shaving or having a bath, if you are not careful about the deodorant you choose, the chemicals in it can be harmful and may cause critical illnesses in the long run. Below are three easily avoidable ingredients in bodyspray that you can watch out for.
Aluminium: Aluminium is among the most common elements in the world, but aluminium in its various forms and in higher quantities can cause aluminium toxicity. Aluminium toxicity is a well-researched condition that can cause debilitating conditions. Commonly used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products, aluminum salts prevent the body from sweating. These salts dissolve to stop the sweat from forming on the surface of the pores.
Parabens: Parabens are also a common ingredient in most of the personal care items. It is used as a preservative to prevent the growth of bacteria, yeast, fungi, etc. in the bodyspray. Parabens interfere with the body functions and the way the body regulates estrogen and several other hormones. This creates a hormonal imbalance in the body. Parabens can and may increase the risk of birth defects in children and hormonal cancers.
Animal-source ingredients : A variety of ingredients in common bodyspray that have their genesis in animal parts. For example, Stearic Acid is an ingredient derived from pigs and other animals. It can cause an allergic reaction on some people, but most importantly it is rejected by people of different cultures around the world.
