From Our Home to Yours: Get First Looks at New Products, Candles & More
Your armpits deserve nothing but the best. That’s why we designed Kersh Organic’s Organic Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished Tallow Deodorant.
Here is why this product is fantastic.
1. It is Aluminum-Free. Some studies suggest that Aluminum can cause various health issues. First is the potential link to Alzheimer’s Disease. (1) Its also linked to Parkinson's disease, dialysis encephalopathy, bone disorder, human breast cancer, and it is also considered to be a neurotoxin. (2) So for something that you’re wearing daily, it’s best to avoid Aluminum.
2. It is free of endocrine-disruptors. It does not contain phthalates, parabens, formaldehyde releasers, propylene glycol, GMOs, talc or fragrances. Many deodorants contain ingredients that alter your hormones (think estrogen or testosterone) and leave your body working less optimally. For example, studies show that Lavender or Tea Tree oil can cause estrogenic effects in the body. (3) What this means is that for men, their sperm count can decrease and cause permanent damage to testicles. (4) What this means for women is increase chance for breast cancer (5). These endocrine distruptors can even cause people to gain weight or hold onto extra weight. It also is linked to a slew of other issues- like Cardiovascular disease, Autism / AdHD, various cancers, and even osteoporosis. (6)
3. Ingredients compound in the armpits. If you think you can get a bargain deodorant, you may want to think again. The armpit is not only close to the breast, but its also filled with tons of lymphatic vessels. When you apply deodorant, the skin rubs on top of each other, further increasing the absorption of the product in your system. If your deodorant contains harmful or potentially harmful ingredients, it’s exponentiated in your armpits.
These gentle, toxin-free formulas allow your body to sweat naturally—an important process for detoxification—while keeping you fresh and supporting overall skin health.
