What does /sci/ think about the suspected link between aluminum in antiperspirant and Alzheimers? Is the concept of antiperspirant even good for your body in the first place? I think if your body wants to sweat it needs to sweat, and clogging your sweat glands to prevent that can't be good for you.
Which do you use, regular deodorant or antiperspirant?

I've read about this, I used to put on a lot of antiperspirant because I hate the notion if emitting smells. Then I realised others don't give a shit about smelling like a hobo, so I switched to some organic crap that works like a charm

Regardless of it link to dementia, it is still a neurotoxin, and has no place in the personal care repertoire of anyone but the brainlet.

Same. I also switched cause I was tired of the yellow stains ruining my shirts. Most regular deodorants I've tried don't last long or give me a rash though. Oddly, I find Axe Stick to be the best one.
I never use antiperspirant and only have to put deodorant on maybe twice a week. I'm blessed. Washing my armpits in the shower is usually enough.
antiperspirants don't clog the pores, and if your body needs to sweat to lose heat it has plenty of other places that aren't breeding grounds for bacteria
and given that there's no known way for aluminum to be taken up by the skin and distributed to the rest of the body, the alzheimer's link hypothesis is a nonstarter
