What is the latest research on the link between Breast Ca and deodorants/anti persperants?

My niece died of Breast Cancer at 32 yrs old and her young 8 yr old is needing to use an antipersperant due to strong odour irrespective of frequent washing. I read somewhere that some anti per or deoderants could cause Breast Cancer so need more info.

What is the latest research on the link between Breast Ca and deodorants/anti persperants?
There is no scientific evidence at all that deodorant and anti-perspirant cause or contribute to any cancer. The widespread belief that they cause breast cancer is due largely to a hoax email that was widely circulated.





For the facts read:

Also, contrary to what someone else has said, only 5- 10% of breast cancer cases are genetic. Most are random.
Reply:The National Cancer Institute is the nation's leading agency on cancer research, and they have a fact sheet specifically addressing this question. View it at: http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/facts...





Hope this helps!

Have a read there - and she should also be aware that breast cancer is genetic .
Reply:I heard that the aluminium in deodorants has been linked to cancerous tissue found in the breast. Boots sell one called Bionsen which is aluminium free.
