With natural ingredients, you can detoxify your armpits to fight breast cancer.
Other than skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in American women. According to the American Cancer Society, about 1 in every 8 women in the United States will develop invasive breast cancer during their lifetime.
Deodorants and antiperspirants carry some ingredients that are harmful, according to Joseph Mercola. “Your antiperspirant probably contains aluminum, and that aluminum may be absorbed into your breast tissue where it could potentially increase your risk of breast cancer or other health problems,” Dr. Mercola said.
Let’s take a look at the ingredients in this armpit detox.
Apple cider vinegar:
It has been used for centuries for so many conditions because of its anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties.
Coriander:
According to a study published by the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, compounds in coriander essential oil have potent antibacterial properties. These properties can help detox the armpits
Rosemary:
This potent herb has shown many benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties, anti-cancer benefits, and antibacterial properties.
