Diabetic demyelinating polyneuropathy

Many people do not need deodorants

Researchers have found that two per cent of the population have a genetic variant that means they do not suffer from under arm body odour yet more three quarters of them continue to use scents.

From Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS):

1,4-Dioxane may exert its effects through inhalation, skin absorption and ingestion
1,4-Dioxane is listed as a carcinogen.
Effects of overexposure: 1,4-dioxane is an eye and mucous membrane irritant, primary skin irritant, central nervous system depressant, nephrotoxin, and hepatotoxin.
Acute exposure causes irritation, headache, dizziness, and narcosis. Chronic inhalation exposure can produce damage to the liver and kidneys, and blood disorders.
Medical condition aggravated by exposure preclude from exposure those individuals with disease of the blood, liver kidneys, central nervous system, and those susceptible to dermatitis

2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (Bronopol)

Toxic, causes allergic contact dermatitis. See Nitrosating agents

Alcohol, Isopropyl (SD-40)

A very drying and irritating solvent and dehydrator that strips your skin's natural acid mantle, making us more vulnerable to bacteria, moulds and viruses. It is made from propylene, a petroleum derivative. It may promote brown spots and premature aging of skin.

Anionic Surfactants

Anionic refers to the negative charge these surfactants have. They may be contaminated with nitrosamines, which are carcinogenic. Surfactants can pose serious health threats. They are used in car washes, as garage floor cleaners and engine degreasers - and in 90% of personal-care products that foam. They are also known as:
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES)
Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (ALS)
Ammonium Laureth Sulfate (ALES)
Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate
Sodium Cocoyl Sarcosinate
Potassium Coco Hydrolysed Collagen
TEA (Triethanolamine) Lauryl Sulfate
TEA (Triethanolamine) Laureth Sulfate
Lauryl or Cocoyl Sarcosine
Disodium Oleamide Sulfosuccinate
Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate
Disodium Dioctyl Sulfosuccinate etc

Benzalkonium Chloride

Highly toxic, primary skin irritant. See Cationic surfactants

From Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS):

Material is highly toxic via oral route.
Effects of overexposure: mists can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, nose, throat and mucous membranes. Avoid direct contact. Symptoms: muscular paralysis, low blood pressure, cns depression and weakness.
Emergency and first aid procedures:
- Eyes - corrosive! Immediately wash eyes with plenty of water.
- Inhalation - remove person to fresh air. Give oxygen (if breathing is difficult). Call physician.
- Ingestion - if conscious, immediately drink large quantities of fluid to dilute and induce vomiting. Call physician.
