If you would like to read an article on the links between aluminium in deodorant and breast cancer click HERE. This is from that study: “Aluminium salts are used as the active antiperspirant agent in underarm cosmetics. But the effects of widespread, long term and increasing use remain unknown. Especially in relation to the breast, which is a local area of application. Clinical studies showing a disproportionately high incidence of breast cancer in the upper outer quadrant of the breast together with reports of genomic instability in outer quadrants of the breast provide supporting evidence for a role for locally applied cosmetic chemicals in the development of breast cancer. Aluminium has a genotoxic profile. Aluminium is capable of causing both DNA alterations and epigenetic effects. And this would be consistent with a potential role in breast cancer if such effects occurred in breast cells.

Oestrogen can influence in breast cancer and its action, dependent on intracellular receptors which function as ligand-activated zinc finger transcription factors, suggests one possible point of interference from aluminium. Results reported here demonstrate that aluminium in the form of aluminium chloride or aluminium chlorhydrate can interfere with the function of oestrogen receptors of MCF7 human breast cancer cells both in terms of ligand binding and in terms of oestrogen-regulated reporter gene expression. This adds aluminium to the increasing list of metals capable of interfering with oestrogen action and termed metalloestrogens.”
