Phthalates are another class of chemicals that are often used in deodorants and antiperspirants that you may want to avoid. Triclosan is another common ingredient included in commercial deodorants. It is utilized as the odour killing part of antiperspirants for its anti-bacterial properties.

Aluminium salts, such as those used in anti-perspirants, have recently been classified as metal oestrogens. In research published in the Journal of Applied Toxicology, Dr. Philippa D. Darbre of the University of Reading has shown that aluminium salts increase oestrogen-related gene expression in human breast cancer cells grown in the laboratory.
