Boy, 12, Dies From Excessive Deodorant Use

[one...two...tree 2,762]

a girl a worked with didn't use deodorant because her mom died of breast cancer. she smelled soooooooooooo bad.

it's only the sprays that cause problems i think?

she never wore any and working in a hot kitchen on the line is not a good place to choose to go without the deodorant

yeah, that is just gross. breast cancer is a terrible thing but i don't think roll on deodorants have the same cancer causing effects as sprays do. you should have just drank more to forget.

ever smell fish sauce? we had fish sauce wars. not a nice thing.

Any location with the possibility of encountering another human being is not a good place to choose to go without deodorant.

Anything chemical that enters through the lungs is hazardous. Lord knows what gets absorbed by them.

Apparently a chemical called "parabens" are in many bathroom products -- from shampoo to deodorants -- and can significantly increase a woman's chance at having breast cancer. The good news is that there are some products that lack this, but unfortunately, they're generally more expensive. Even so, I'd imagine a few extra bucks is worth reducing one's chance of breast cancer and possibly death or a mastectomy.

whatsthe name of the deodorant? maybe the boy had heart problems aggravated by the chemicals in the deodorant.

Holy cr@p - how much of the stuff was he using???

And you mean to tell me that after his parents found him PASSED OUT on the bathroom floor (talking about the previous incident), they didn't ban him from using the deodorant? He's 12, for pete's sakes... Man, if I found either one of mine doing that kind of stuff, I'd hide all the sprays in the house.

I mean, that's not just sad - it's also slightly nuts, isn't it?

I use all paraben free stuff anyways so I don't worry

Maybe he was actually huffing it or something

Hmm...When I was younger, I used spray on deodorant. Just wanted to murder my room-mate in college because he's such a jerk!

Honestly, I didn't even know it could kill you. I was young, and careless.

I ran out of deodorant today and only got to put it on one pit this morning
