Top 10 best natural deodorant for men
Many men use the average spray cans with that sharp-smelling deodorant. Mixed with fresh/old sweat, it can quickly result in an all-encompassing blend of sweet, pungent, and nostril-splitting air.
Not everyone, of course, but perhaps you recognize this in yourself or from a colleague who types away in a sweat every day, deadline-wise. Stress. Often a cause of more intense perspiration. What you often see is that men liberally spray the can under their dripping arms in between.
Many still fall for these kinds of low-threshold products. Units with which you effectively spray the sweat glands under the armpit shut. Or lacquer them. That’s possible too. Then you might as well apply a roll of that gray shiny duct tape to the armpits. However, probably fewer harmful substances enter the skin than you see with household deodorants. Full of parabens, aluminum, and other very harmful substances.
What is in standard supermarket deodorants?
You don’t know any better. Traditionally, you have already been using standard deodorants. You have 1 or 2 in stock in your sports bag and the bathroom as well. Countless commercials also make you believe that this TOP deodorant works 24/7.
Why would you delve into it yourself because applying it under the armpits has been in your system for years. However: with this writing, we hope to make you aware that you might want to stop using those questionable deodorants.
Friends: a body MUST sweat. Because then you expel waste products. If you seal the armpits, no natural drainage can take place, and that is not good for health. Let’s list some important and harmful substances that usually occur in an average deodorant:
- Aluminum: is also absorbed by the skin and enters your system where it can cause DNA damage. Bones and the nervous system can also be affected by a large accumulated amount. There is even a link between the presence of aluminum in the body and Alzheimer’s.
- Triclosan: not only kills the harmful bacteria that cause the stench but also the good bacteria in our body. It can also seriously disrupt the hormone balance.
- Parabens: also known as synthetic preservatives. You encounter parabens in many care products. Not all parabens are necessarily bad, but there are plenty of harmful variants among them. Not proven, but the components in parabens could be harmful to the organs and affect hormone balance. All & all, it can’t hurt to avoid these preservatives as much as possible.
- S(l)ES: fully Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. If you pronounce it, it already has a sinister tone. This stuff degreases and dries out the skin. It can also cause itching and the skin can start to flake. You can then start using other ointments to solve these side effects.
In a previous blog, we already talked about detoxing written about the standard deodorants. We go into detail about the step from average deodorants to products with natural ingredients to which your body responds much better.
Why use a natural deodorant?
Of course, we don't oblige you to anything. You should naturally decide for yourself whether you continue using your current deodorants in the same way. But we do want to motivate you to consider trying a natural deodorant.
It's a mindset. But we know from experience with our friends who regularly order products from us that once you apply a natural, organic, and artisanal product to your armpits, there's no turning back.
Another tip from us: shave your underarms regularly. Bushes of hair tend to hold the sweat smell longer.
Oh yes, another tip: Eat and live healthily. It's obvious, but it's true. We would avoid as much as possible a lot of alcohol and meals recommended by Dr. Oetkers and other Wagners.
