Take the Natural Deodorant Challenge in Support of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

As a part of our holistic philosophy at Source Vitál Apothecary, we believe the benefits of natural deodorant are vitally important to our overall wellness. 

Natural deodorants do not:

• Clog pores
• Inhibit the body’s natural detoxification efforts
• Contain potentially harmful ingredients or
• Cause the underarm area of shirts to yellow

Considering the amount of deodorant we use over the years and its proximity to major organs and lymph nodes, the reasons to switch from a traditional chemical-heavy antiperspirant start to add up. That’s why National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is the perfect time to toss out your conventional deodorant and make the switch to a safe, natural deodorant, free from harmful aluminums and other potentially dangerous ingredients.

Going natural is easy and relatively painless. You will need to give your body some time to make the adjustment and get used to the way a natural deodorant feels. Within a few short weeks you will start to feel lighter, like the body can breathe easier.

Still not convinced? Check out our blog post about the Six Unexpected Benefits of Switching to a Natural Deodorant from one of our favorite health and  fitness gurus.

Take the #NaturalDeodorantChallenge

This month we're launching our first-ever natural deodorant challenge. The challenge has two main goals: get people excited about trying a natural deodorant and supporting the efforts of The Rose, a local Houston non-profit organization committed to saving lives through quality breast health services, advocacy and access to care for all. 

Too many of us have felt the effects of breast cancer and the sad reality is that all women are at risk for developing breast cancer. That's why it is so crucial to continue to raise awareness about the importance of screenings and diagnostics.
