Detoxifying Armpits: Yes, It’s a Thing

Sun, 30 Mar 2025 13:07:55 CDT

Detoxing your armpits can be beneficial due to the harmful chemicals found in conventional deodorants and antiperspirants. Ingredients such as aluminum, phthalates, propylene glycol, formaldehyde, parabens, and antibacterial substances have been linked to serious health issues like cancer, Alzheimer’s, hormone imbalances, and immune system suppression. By detoxifying your armpits, you can reduce your exposure to these toxins and promote better overall health.

The process of an armpit detox involves using a paste made from bentonite clay, apple cider vinegar, and water, which helps to pull chemicals out of the skin and tissue. After applying the paste for 5-20 minutes and washing it off, users report experiencing less odor, reduced sweating, and an easier transition to natural deodorants without rashes. This detox method is particularly helpful for those who have used conventional deodorants for years and are looking to switch to a healthier alternative.

For additional support, consider incorporating dry brushing to improve lymph circulation and drinking plenty of water to flush toxins from your body. Men can also benefit from this detox process, and using Young Living's Aromabright toothpaste as a transitional deodorant can help manage odor while switching from conventional products. This multi-functional approach not only aids in the detox process but also simplifies travel by reducing the need for multiple personal care items.

The Dirt on Spring Cleaning + Products
WHAT ARE YOU CLEANING WITH?

Ahhh! Open those windows and breathe in that fresh spring air! Spring is here, which means it’s time to start thinking about our spring cleaning checklists. There’s just something about the nice weather that brings on motivation for a fresh start. So let’s get to it! But wait, before you reach for those cleaners and get to work, let’s do a little digging into those ingredients, shall we?

Did you know? In 2000, cleaning products were responsible for nearly 10% of all toxic exposures reported to U.S. Poison Control Centers, accounting for 206,636 calls. Of these, 120,434 exposures involved children under six who can swallow or spill cleaners stored or left open inside the home. With no federal regulations on ingredients in household products, the only way we can protect our families is to learn how to read labels ourselves.

Let’s take a look at the top 4 ingredients to avoid and why.

This is one home remedy I have been using in our home for years now and I share it with friends and family any chance I get. Detox baths are very useful at this time of year. But because the benefits are many, I would suggest doing them regularly all year long. If someone is getting sick a detox bath is a MUST!! Make sure you hydrate well before and after!

Have you lost your sense of smell?

A 2009 study found significant improvement in retraining smell by taking deep sniffs of known aromas in 4 different categories for 10 seconds each twice a day for at least 12 weeks.

What's the cause?

There are a few things to look into with your doctor, but it's most likely because the cells in the olfactory bulb (responsible for smell recognition) have been damaged by a microorganism due to a respiratory illness!
