For most of my adult life I have avoided buying white clothes mostly because I knew eventually yellow pit stains would arise given this was a common theme in most of my clothes as a teenager.

I recently thought maybe that was because I was detoxing through my armpit sweat.

Turns out, the aluminum in the deodorants mix with the proteins in your sweat and form this yellow-ish color.

Another reason you should drop your fiat-deodorant. Not only will it poison you with parabens, phthalates, aluminum, and lord knows what other chemicals, but It’ll also stain your beautiful natural fiber clothes.

Stop using deodorant, but if you must there are plenty of natural options now. Bentonite clay is a viable option as well.

arm and hammer have an antiperspirant-free deodorant that is solid. cheap and easy to find at most stores as well.

Before dropping deodorant all together I was using Schmidt’s, it like a charcoal + magnesium based deodorant, easily the best one I had ever used.
