Why I STOPPED Wearing Deodorant (You Won't Believe This!) 

I'm seventy four years old and I haven't used deodorant for about thirty five or forty years. I have not taken the time to do thorough research on the matter. I simply felt that to apply a chemical to your body that's strong enough to interfere with natural body function and then to do this every day of my life is madness. Now that I've heard your video I'll be able to explain it, thank you.

Omg I did your detox and I was inspired by this video to try going without deodorant on my days off. It’s day 2 and I just worked out and no foul smell. This is crazy! Somebody protect this man 😂.

I started using limes then was shocked when I found out the lime juice in a spray bottle does the job also. Gaurantee!!!

I stopped consistently using deodorants years ago. My mother passed of breast cancer at age 60 after a 28 year battle w cancer. I researched all i could about cancer after losing her. Great information🙏🏽✨

When I was on the 14 day detox I didn't have underarm odor even while I exercised. I was happily shocked.

I recently just stopped using deodorant and when I'm openly discussing that to other people they look crazy unfortunately from the foods down to the hygiene products they all are cancerous we need to start going back to our roots of what our ancestors used ❤

I remember back home in Africa, people who lived in the rural areas (villages) that couldnt afford deodorant , rubbed fresh lime all over the body especially the folded regions 30 mins before bathing and they never stunk with all that heat! I run out of deodorant while at boarding school one day and decided to try this technique and it did wonders 👌🏽 unfortunately i grew up to be a fragrance junkie and cant go without deodorant/body spray and perfume i will shamefully admit 😢

This is DEEP 🤗 Thank God for putting this message in you to get to all that take heed! No doubt Im about to do this!

This doctor is correct! I stopped using regular deodorant 10 years ago when I went plant-based. Also, when you get enough chlorophyll in your body it helps control body odor caused by bacteria and toxins. Good video! 💯

Wooooooooooow, I stopped wearing deodorant about 10 years ago when I found out what was in it and what it can do. My family has a history of illness so when I found out something that can cause cancer and diabetes, I do my best to try to stay away from or minimize use. Thanks for the education! :)

Title should have been Lymphatic system; Cleanse, and Detoxify the body I just saying, but I get it must get clicks and likes making the title important. Dr.price I appreciate what you share don't stop sharing. 💪🏿🙏🏿

I’m so glad you made this video. My 13 year old Son & I started alkaline juicing a week ago. After your video, It dawned on me that we don’t have underarm odor anymore. I never made the connection. After taking a shower, my Son’s underarms still had a fowl smell. (It was really bad) I thought it was puberty. His underarm odor has been eliminated about 90%

There is no way you are a doctor!!! You are fit, in shape & actually help your clients get better. You practice what you preach tooo🤯🥸

My daughter and I use baking soda and coconut oil. Put it right into the deodorant stick and let it solidify. This thing is magic and my daughter used to have strong body order. WE can go 2, even 3 days without applying again. And you can apply literally a dab. Have to edit due to some of the comments. I am not advocating applying this deodorant to funky armpits or not showering. You can still wash up without touching your armpit, and clean the rest of your body. In the shower, obviously, your going to wash it off so you have to reapply. The point is this deodorant is so strong it can last you that amount of time if needed for any reason.

I switched deodorants about 5 years ago to aluminum free. It's been a huge difference overall. But after watching this video, it all makes sense. Our lymphatic system is not talked about much in the world of medical practice. I always understood the fact that the primary goal of the human body is to survive. Cleansing is what it does very well with a healthy vitality. We're literally on a battlefield for the spirit, mind, and body. Good video, Doc! #peace and #light for and to you Brotha.

I had to pause your video just to say this, you are so captivating, I hear and listen to nutritionists all the time, and many lose me, or I'm just not interested anymore. As a past medical art student, I know what you are speaking is correct. you are so encouraging. I just want to really thank you for getting me motivated in this area of nutrition again. Thank you so much!

I am the youngest of five girls. There are four of us living and my three older sisters all have severe medical conditions; two with cancer and the third, who I am the cargiver for, has dementia. I have just ordered your 14day detox and will commit to a full body transformation. I have been following you for some time now and always loved the information you share. This video was the final straw, the wakeup call. Thank you for being a beacon of health hope to us all.

Never in my life has anyone broke that down like that I've heard people try to explain it but not in such detail

I’m on 5 days detox. I just want to thank you. It’s not an easy road. I’m challenging myself for this just raw food. So I been eating a lot fruits and vegetables 😊

Dr. Price, you have a real talent for explaining things clearly. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos!

All true people!!! This was actually a goal of mine two years ago. I am on my natural/ plant based journey and started wearing quote on quote natural deodorant. Which only by the way, produced sweat and a bad smell. And one day about three months ago, I forgot to put on any deodorant before going to work. I freaked out that I’d smell bad from my job duties but by the time the work day was over, I realized there was no sweat or smell. Haven’t worn deodorant since. No need!

Wow, Dr. BP, you said a mouthful here that makes perfect sense. I had the inkling to stop synthetic deodorant due to me ditching the dye during Covid. The weirdest thing happened kinda accidentally. Most of the women on my mother's side gray early and I started seeing strands by my early 20s. Every 3 to 4 weeks I was dying my hair on top of my other styling services. When all the hair salons were mandated to cease all operations and I was unable to get there I was just washing my hair at home. About a month and a half in my hair & scalp went through all kinds of changes/withdrawal symptoms like a junkie jonesing for a fix i.e. excessive itching, sweating, and my thirst was through the roof. Going through all this made me wonder what on earth is in the crap? Ironically enough I look younger in the face and my complexion cleared up. I'm on a roll now (& Thnx 2 u) I'm more than open to discontinuing using crappy, chemical ladened deodorant. Btw, your eyes, skin, and teeth are beautiful. Stay Blessed!👍🏾✝️😊

I only use 50/50 coconut oil and baking soda works for 24-48 hours. Great content I am subscribed now and will be sending your videos to my parents who think the FDA would never allow any foods that would harm us.

Greetings and blessings to you and yours. This is a very interesting topic to learn about, I thank you for formative explanation 🙏🏾 I also stopped using deodorants a few months ago as I found myself actually smelling quiet strong and to the point of having to fresh up 2/3 in a day, but of lately since giving up on deodorants, I found myself not giving off strong odor while sweating. Thank you.

I haven’t wore deodorant in 10 years because the more you wear it, it causes issues and makes you dependent on it. You are right about the diet, you must change it. Cut the dairy and red meat from your diet and workout you will be surprised. Great content❤️

Thank you for speaking up on this and articulate yourself so well.

Thank you for this video Dr. Price, I did have a few moments of 😱. I have done detox in the past but not sure if done correctly. I have started to eat a cleansing diet, but fell off the wagon and now I’m back on again. Continue to stay on the journey to better eating lifestyle. Blessings to you.

Hey brother thank you I’m learning so much from you! Your way of explaining things makes sense. I’ve bought your book and look forward to doing a service on my body with your detoxification products. Thanks again, keep up the great work! Respect from New Zealand 🤙🏾

I agree 100%. I've been saying this for a long time. The other thing you did not mention is shaving our underarms. I think we are opening up our pores to these contaminants that now have easy access to our lymphatic system. I am trying to stay on a vegan diet, but the call of meat is hard sometimes. I do notice that I shed the weight without dieting and have such beautiful skin. I also use a lot of natural herbs from my garden for teas and skin care. I have lots of soursop leaves, i have the trees, and aloe vera too. Thanks again for an eye-opener. It is appreciated ❤❤

This wonderful doctor freed me. I have terrible body odor since junior high. Now no more I used crystal deodorant, didnt have a problem with it. But going w/o underarm protection is a very freeing feeling.

I am 60 years old and I stopped wearing deodorant and perfume altogether at the age of 40. I used body cream to maintain the skin in good shape. I used to be vegetarian but not anymore. I stopped smoking at the age of 21 and started working out so I am healthy as I was 20 years ago. Never found anyone talking about this subject so I am so happy to find out that we don't need to use perfume or deodorant on our bodies. Thank you, and I don't stink either.

Yup!! Stopped using anything under my arms in the 90s when I learned about the Rock. There have been times like certain types of beef will give me a bit of order. There have been moments when stress seemed to mess with my hormones. Each time I used the Rock for 2 or 3 days, and that’s it. It’s been years!! I also drink a lot of water, eat mostly fruit and veggies, that means even my stool smell is weak 🤷🏼‍♂️ Eating Healy impacts what our bodies put out, who knew? 😝

Excellent video and explanation 🎉 these are things we know and get caught up through laziness. It's time we re-evaluated things to help our selves. Thank you Dr

Bro !!! You change my life. I am just living. Blessed love.

I appreciate the wisdom of your knowledge. None of the doctors that I have dealt with in the past exercised the information by applying it to themselves, neither did they talk about best practices until i told them what i practice. I have had them tell me that my practice will keep me healthy. Thank you for actually caring about yourself and your audience/patients.

Hey man , you are my kind of person. I eat food daily that doesn’t taste good but it is good for you. It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one that eats this way.

Great video! I started using a more natural brand of deodorant back in 2020, and in 2021 I decided to start making & using my own deodorant with even less ingredients. I love it!

I stopped wearing deodorant more than 15 ago. I then used olive oil and later coconut oil to my under arm. I continue to sweat, but there's no foul odour. I'm conscious of what I eat. Thank you Dr Bobbie. Blessings always

I totally relate to this video. I had oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer 10 years ago. Now I don't use deodorant and I do a plant based diet..... still get a slight stinky armpit. The cause of the odour is bacteria. I spray my armpit with lemon juice. Vinegar is also good if you don't mind the smell. I spray vinegar on my children's clothes armpit before I put in the washing machine to get rid of odours. I believe everything we need to heal ourselves is in our kitchen.

Amazing 👏 Thanks Dr Bobby, I've been teaching my kids and any family who will listen to this for years, although you taught me a couple details I didn't know. Your the best ! 🤗

I also haven't use deodorant for a few years ago. I quit using sugar, canola oil and wheat products. I started the Keto diet and Intermittent fasting. I still eat eggs, meat and dairy without problem with vitamin or mineral deficiencies. I have no body odors.

Thank you for taking the time to research this. I just never used deodorant even before knowing this. Never smelled so never saw the need.

Great video. Keeping the lymphatic system happy will definitely keep you healthier. I've been using Milk of Magnesia as a deodorant for years. It doesn't stop the perspiration, only the odor and I do eat meat, so I'll have that odor without MoM. I also use small batch natural soap and make my own cologne using healthy, natural ingredients. My family has been full of cancer and I'm doing all I can to not follow them.

Might be the best thing on youtube! Always appreciate all the info!!!

Thank you for giving us good information! Stay blessed and healthy.

Thank you. Your video came up in my suggestion clicked and to make a long story short, new subscriber. Thank you for giving me some things to look into and change. Continued success and good health.

Just threw away my deodorant and to be honest I never really smelled like that. The detoxes with activated charcoal can assist greatly for detoxing. Thank you brother for sharing this knowledge with us all, and may God provide and strengthen you in your career. 🙏🏿

I've noticed that I've never had underarm odor because I've always worn deodorant. I went a few days without deodorant and was like, oh no, that's me. It did take a few days. It would be nice to see if showering, while alone, without using deodorant, will not produce odor at the end of the day. Natural deodorant is so expensive. We have just been brainwashed to use deodorant. Maybe just fragrant oil will work, or lotion. Experiment is on. Thank you. May you be financially blessed. I love my deodorant but I don't like having itchy underarms at the end of the day. I sweat all over but not excessively in the arm pit. The deodorant must be helping. I've just never gone without it. I think we need to smell good because too many people are going around musty like being upset at the world with attitudes is not already too much. Since we can smell good and not hurt each other with forced and broken sins, we should. It's 2023 and there should be some indication of the kingdom heaven arriving on earth, in Jesus name.

Several mos ago I started using aluminum free crystal mineral rock as deodorant several, however, before that I would just use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution on a cotton pad under my arms because it does a great job, arguably better than deodorant, and I know exactly what’s in it🤷🏽‍♀️ I also take chlorophyll daily to rid myself of internal odors to help with funky breath, vaginal hygiene, as well as any other body odor. I don’t wear deodorant and I haven’t worn deodorant for years. I have never got to complaint about being musty, and I have a very sensitive nose, so I would be honest with y’all if I was musty. My under arms are also a very even color with the rest of my skin and I do not get breakouts or bumps or anything like when I used to use scented deodorant growing up. I remember watching Dr. Oz several years ago and one of his guests mentioned that women getting breast cancer is likely the result of aluminum in deodorant and they came to that conclusion based on where the tumors & the cancer started in the breast, which was really close to where the under arm is. I’ve been scared every since.🙄🤷🏽‍♀️

I just ordered your 28-detox so I’m excited. I transitioned from regular deodorant to natural deodorant about 3 1/2 years ago, it was an interesting process because I had to go for a while without any deodorant to apparently detox my underarms. I was extremely irritated but I read that it was natural. After about 3 weeks or so I was finally able to start trying natural deodorants, which was a process in itself. I found 2 that work and I never looked back. What that showed me was that what I thought the purpose of deodorant was, wasn’t so. Now I’m excited to get to a place of eliminating it completely but I know I have to do more cleansing and detoxing work before I get there.

ok this was probably one of the most informative videos I have watched on youtube. Thank you Dr, Price I just subscribed and will be checking the clensing and the detoxing vids. out.

Awesome information. Thank you for putting it out there. Haven't worn deodorant in many years (about 18 years). Fresh squeezed lemon juice is my go-to because it will introduce vitamin c into the axillary ( fancy word for armpit area). Of course one can't be rough when washing this area or the lemon juice will sting). Warmer weather can be a little challenging because of sweating but health is worth the extra effort.

This video was amazing! I noticed by accident too that my bad under arm odor went away. I’ve been eating clean and detoxing for years now, and I just found out why my odor has change. 🤯

Oh my goodness man. You are dropping a lot of knowledge. Thank you so much

Great video very informative thank you for all that you do. I’m 74 years old I’m just starting my healthy journey just finished my 14 day detox again thank you‼️‼️‼️‼️☮️☮️☮️

🎉 I’ve completed the 14-day Detox 3x’s and the results are great! However, I’m still challenged with the armpit odor. I started wearing aluminum free natural plant based deodorant (but with fragrance 😢) January 2023…so, I am going to give myself grace and pray for wisdom on how to go deodorant free.

I started making my own deodorant and it’s been working great since November 2022. I now make it for immediate family and close friends. Although I have a pretty healthy lifestyle I have been encouraged to live a cleansing lifestyle. Thanks Dr. Bobby for this video! ❤

Thank you Dr. Bobby. I am a licensed massage therapist and have been telling women for decades now not to wear antiperspirants. I said the same things as you but not the details you gave. Thanks for more details about the lymphatic system. Alan

❤ Doc, GOD BLESS YOU!!! I noticed this some years ago but couldn’t explain it and sadly I dismissed it and went back eating regular. I am gonna start again. Thanks keep up the great videos sir and I’ll be sharing this to my family and church and friends and coworkers❤ GOD CARES ABOUT OUR BODIES TOO🙏🏾

The heart is willing but the flesh is weak

Thank you soo much young man. After breast cancer surgery, "Native" brand deodorants have been my go to. Paraben Free and Aluminum Free. 😊

Stay blessed dr please keep on,people like u are very rare..your precious...

Thanks for this. This is so much motivation for me you sound just like me with what I'm trying to do. Be blessed bro

So funny how your video pop up in my timeline. I noticed a lot of terrible itching once I used deodorant about after an hour and lasted all day. I stopped using deodorant for past 2 weeks and this sever itching has stopped. Glad I discovered this channel.

I found eating clean and moving and sweating daily makes a big difference. I do spray with a low % chlorine dioxide. Together is perfect for me.

I just had cancer surgery.. this is so helpful. God bless you. Just ordered your book on cooking right

I call America diet "A beige diet." You plate should be a colorful one. I love this, someone speaking my language 👏🏽

Dr Price. Great explaination on an overlooked topic. I have been using lime for years with great results. At first it will burn slightly but the body adjusts quickly to lime juice under the arms. Once again. Thanks alot for your most important health discussions

Since I started the detox, after about a week, I noticed I didn't have a body odor and my waste didn't smell. I have gone days without wearing deodorant. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I recommend everyone to detox and consider eliminating meat, diary, and sugar from their diet. I feel better and not eating as much.

U might be da most knowledgeable man I never met!

Truly grateful to have stumbled upon this channel. Great info ✊🏾

Thank you Dr. This video was very informative and enlightening ❤

I saw a homeopathic doctor for awhile several years ago. He had me switch my deodorant. He did talk a little about the aluminum in them but not in depth like you did today Dr Bobby. I still use the one I switched too. Thank you for all the information you give on your channel. It makes sense and it helps me know I’m going in the correct direction for me. I’m tried of having to use medications. And don’t want to end up like my parents but I had given up hope on it. Listening to you makes it sound worth the effort and that it can be done again. I want to feel good again and I believe my inner guide lead me to your channel because I want to get healthier. While I’m older I believe my life it just beginning for many reasons and I want that to be as long as I can be health. Thanks again!

Exactly what you’re saying happened when I became a vegetarian (semi veg, I still had occasional cheese, eggs). I had b12 deficiency though and went back to eating meat steadily. I recently bought some liquid b12 and really want to try it again. Could you do a vid for some of us on this-having similar issues, or other ones we may need to be aware of? Is that in your book? I love your eloquence in discussing health/healing..I’ll search through your vid playlist though. Interesting but I’d the same experience of very low if no body odor, and none in the bathroom either. I’ve not heard anyone discuss this as you have, but I was aware of this change via experience…thanks so much❤!

I just want your seven day diet to live by! I have sent this and the foods band video to everyone in my contact list.

*This is so important. I noticed that I can go days without the use of deodorant when I eat clean (more salads, fruits, and vegetables). No smell at all. Thanks for sharing this info!* P.S. *I know this is hard for some of you who commented NEGATIVELY to believe because y'all STINK no matter how many times you take a bath/shower and you STINK no matter what you eat. Lol* 😆 🤣

Excellent teacher!

Omg first time watching your video. The title is what caught my attention. Thank you for this valuable information. I must say I have the worst armpit odor. Actually most deodorants don't work well for me. My siblings have the same problem.

You have the sweetest, kindest energy. I really appreciate the light you out into the world. I’m hearing that a part of your purpose is to show people, especially men, a new way to be. Edit: I mean A new way to be emotively and in the baseline energy they are comfortable sharing openly. Without that correction this sounded super obvious. Like… duh. 🤣

Thank You for the remainder! I remember Dr. Sebi, Dr. Wallach, Dr. Kukuwa, Dr Axe these are my Mentors who teaches also about how to detox/cleanse our masterpiece. Again I am in appreciation🌟

As soon as you stop eating meat, no more stinky poo poo! Like, no odor AT ALL.

Just found your channel today. You have a new subscriber! Love the way you explain and speak. I have been trying not to wear deodorant when possible and questioning everything I put in and on my body.

Thank you for add knowledge to my medical knowledge. I learnt in medicatie school that the lymphatics were the spare tyre of the circulatory system but your video gives extra facts : node location in body folds. GREAT

This video is so valuable, especially for our community so as to understand why not to buy into every hype. I personally tested stopping deodorant because I noticed my skin darkening under my arms and hated bumps caused by clogged pores. Sweat itself doesn't smell, but is caused through contact w bacteria on your skin. To also learn the connection between deodorant & cancer sealed it for me. My skin has never been so clear, clean & healthy!

I stopped wearing deodorant/ aftershave etc many years ago - the idea that you shouldn't place anything on your skin that you wouldn't eat. I've also been a vegetarian since 1984 and vegan since 2018. I was born in 1970 and as a child it seemed no one wore deodorant. It was the heavily marketed in the 1980's and I feel for this, wearing it daily. When I stopped I accepted there would be some degree of body odour. Maybe because my diet was quite healthy - even more so now, there odour was mild and I liked it as it felt natural. A friend told me a few years ago he doesn't use deodorant either - just fresh lemon under his arms. I tried this myself [mixed with some water to dilute it], and it makes any sweat odourless.

I started changing my diet, eating better, about six years ago. At some point along the way I realized I wasn’t stinky anymore. I thought it was just due to passing the age 50 mark. It’s nice to learn what you told us in this video. Very helpful.

I JUST STARTED WATCHING YOU CHANNEL A FEW DAYS AGO ,AND I FIND IT TO BE VERY PURE AND CLEAN....SO I AM TAKING TIME OUT TO SAY TO YOU THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT SERVICE TO HUMANITY...I MUST TELL YOU THAT THAT YOU GIVE ME THE COURAGE TO BE CONSISTENT...THANK YOU SO SO MUCH ❤💯💪💪💪🙏

I really appreciate this brother because this information was very very informative and this is the type of information that is needed and people need to listen to John understand this is why you don't do this and that you have understanding now thank you

I instinctively stopped wearing deodorant about a two years ago. I'm now 46. I noticed in my 20's that it was difficult to clean under my arms after having worn deodorant (antiperspirant). I'd wash with soap and still be able to scratch with my nails and remove deodorant. It just didn't seem right. I stopped two years ago and do not regret it. Occasionally I'll take a lemon wedge and rub underneath. Stay vigilant about your health.

I stopped two weeks ago I just use lemon and it works so good.!! Never smell at all with it natural citric acid

If I could like twice, I would! Thought this video was going to be click bait but ended up being a great video 🎉

I also eat very clean. I can tell that you eat clean because of how clear and smooth your skin looks. I’m glad that I found this channel. God bless you all

Glad you did a video like this. I did the same thing in my 20's and it's been about 2 decades since I last wore deodorant. People don't even realize it, and then look at me weird when I say I don't wear it. I don't pay attention to my diet tho lol

I haven’t used deodorant in years, not a lot of meat, I use lemons. Slice and rub some under my arms. I blend up a whole lemon with a little water and drink it straight down. Drink a lot of water. With lymph nodes so close to the underarms I always felt that constantly putting chemicals under my arms wasn’t a good idea. I’m glad to hear a Doctor explain these things. I also put natural detox pads on my feet at night to detox. I have two cavities made with metal that I have had for sixty years so I Know this affects my health. Those all natural detox pads is pulling the toxins out, that’s a help. Chemicals going into our bodies is one of the main reasons we are sick people. God did not make us to be able to tolerate chemicals. Thanks for this information broken down so that anyone can understand it.

Thank you soo much IVE SUBSCRIBED AND TURNED ON NOTIFICATIONS 🔔 PLEASE KEEP THIS GOOD INFORMATION COMING ❤❤❤

Thank you so much brother for this information you are very easy to listen too and you are a natural teacher. I'm very encouraged to see you doing this work and for sharing ❤ lymphatic system/ chlorophyll

I haven't worn deodorant in so long I don't remember or need it. It makes you need it by blocking your pores. I also bathe every night.

I've been vegan now for 6 yrs, 5 months, and 28 days, to be exact. I stopped wearing deodorant about 3 yrs, into my vegan life. Not only do I not wear deodorant when working out, I no longer chew gym(because of workout breath).

I stop using antiperspirant a long time,sometimes i just use lime juice or baking soda,some things we think we need,we don't,thanks doc,my first time here,just subscribe.

Great work! I will need to learn more.
