Antiperspirants are used at any time of the year, but in the summer it is especially hard to do without them. The smell of sweat can scare anyone away.
But some people believe that by using these products, people are harming their health, as they prevent the removal of toxins from the body. Is this really true?
Health and Antiperspirants
Antiperspirants are designed to block the secretion of sweat.
For reference: A healthy person in a normal situation at a comfortable air temperature produces an average of 500-700 ml of sweat within 24 hours, reports the Telegram channel "Evil Doctor Filatov".
If we talk about high activity, hot weather, physical exertion or a stressful situation, the volume of sweat secreted can increase to 2 liters.
However, hygiene products are used locally – in the armpit areas.
And even if the sweat glands here are blocked, sweat will be secreted more abundantly in another part of the body.
In addition, these glands remove only a negligible amount of toxins, which will not cause harm to health.
Even if they do not come out with sweat, the kidneys will cope with this task.
However, antiperspirant deodorants, which not only neutralize odor but also reduce sweating, are recommended to be used with caution due to their composition.
Previously, we talked about which foods should not be consumed if you have kidney disease .
