Fascinating facts thank you. I gave up using deodorant some years ago, the contents looked so scary. I confess l do get damp in hot weather but never smell simply by washing under my arms every morning. I hate synthetic materials on my body. What loyal turkeys, not so bad after all. Pop pops are the Top pops 👌💖

What a fascinating deep dive into the world of sweat! I never thought I'd be so intrigued by something we often try to hide or minimize lol!

I love how you've tied this all back to climate change and our need to work with our bodies, not against them. Aluminum-free deodorant for the win.

I hope you are having a good week Cecilia.

Thank you for sharing.

Haven't you heard? Horses sweat, men perspire and women glow. Personally since menopause my head sweats copiously and I hate it. Nothing worse than sweat behind contact lenses.

Very interesting, Cecilia. Personally I switched to a natural, aluminum-free deodorant after my breast cancer treatment. The science on the link between aluminum and breast cancer is mixed but I’d rather not chance it.

I remember my mum sending all the pots out to the shed after she read that aluminum promotes dementia. My dad built aluminum crayfish boats!
