Antiperspirants/Deodorants and
Breast Cancer
Can antiperspirants or deodorants cause
breast cancer?
Articles in the press and on the Internet
have warned that underarm antiperspirants (a preparation that reduces underarm
sweat) or deodorants (a preparation that destroys or masks unpleasant odors)
cause breast cancer (1). The reports have suggested that these products contain
harmful substances, which can be absorbed through the skin or enter the body
through nicks caused by shaving. Some scientists have also proposed that
certain ingredients in underarm antiperspirants or deodorants may be related to
breast cancer because they are applied frequently to an area next to the breast
(2, 3).
However, researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI),
a part of the National Institutes of Health, are
not aware of any conclusive evidence linking the use of underarm antiperspirants
or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
which regulates food, cosmetics, medicines, and medical devices, also does not
have any evidence or research data that ingredients in underarm antiperspirants
or deodorants cause cancer.

Bayer AG
The Bayer company then became part of IG
Farben, a German chemical company conglomerate. During World War II, the IG
Farben used slave labor in factories attached to large slave labor camps,
notably the sub-camps of the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp.[3] IG Farben
owned 42.5% of the company that manufactured Zyklon B,[4] a chemical used in
the gas chambers of Auschwitz and other extermination camps. After World War
II, the Allies broke up IG Farben and Bayer reappeared as an individual
business. The Bayer executive Fritz ter Meer, sentenced to seven years in
prison during the IG Farben Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, was made head of the supervisory
board of Bayer in 1956, after his release.
