Is it true you can develope skin cancer from deoderants?


I have a light Nivea cream spray on deoderant. It's mostly cream rather than deoderant but I fall asleep with it on sometimes and i read somewhere or someone told me you can get skin cancer from deoderants?? Is that true?

No. That is pure myth.

There is not a shred of proof that deodorants can cause cancer. Don't believe everything you hear.

no it is not

You can get cancer from anything and everything!

no

only if you're a rat and can eat the stuff 24/7 and at a rate 1 million times the dose in your deoderant...
get real...if people got cancer from deoderant, we'd all be dead by now...last time I looked 50% of the population goes to bed without a shower..they shower in the morning.

I'm not sure but I heard certain ingredients cause cancer gradually.. Whenever I use a deo, I use it on clothes[ not directly on skin].. To stay outta risk :)

omgosh my friend was just talking to me about this.... apparently the answer is yes. it seals in all the toxins.... just be natural
i know it sounds gross but it's not like i'm telling you to not shave your armpits, lol.

Fact

The supposed risk from underarm deoderants was not from skin cancer, but breast cancer. The proximity of lymph glands was the concern. However - this theory has been discredited. See:
