Deodorant

[blackoptimus]

Can normal LYNX deodorant spray cause cancer? I use it all the time under the arms and I'm curious to know if it can cause any sort of cancer or any harm in general to my health, if you guys know something please let us know

(removed discussion about drugs, as per board rules)

I actually cannot use Lynx as it makes me come out in rashes and itches like crazy. Not sure if it causes Cancer but can't be good IMO.

These days there is nothing out there that can't be parralelled to cancer in some way or another...

You could always try an aluminium free deoderant if it worries you?

There was some study a few years ago that linked the chemicals used in aerosol deodorants in general (of which Lynx is one). I didn't read too much into it, but I seem to remember the increase was rather small, and I didn't think too much of it.

Given that the original study is now a couple of years old, and only now continues by word of mouth (as opposed to further studies) I would say it's safe to assume that later studies disproved the idea.


Though, as to using Lynx in particular, there's no accounting for poor taste...

:P

So using Lynx is in poor taste? - I'm confused dude.
I've got no problem in admitting to my poor taste in things though, as I do use Lynx fairly often.
