Here are some questions you may have wondered:
WHAT ARE THEY & HOW DO THEY WORK?
The
Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystals were specifically designed for men
and women who are allergic to or irritated by conventional deodorants –
ten percent of our population! They are made of mineral salts which are
pure and natural, fragrance free, non-staining and provide 24 hour,
hypoallergenic protection against body and foot odor. They both function
as natural deodorants which kill odor causing bacteria while permitting
the pores to excrete toxins naturally. This is vital to maintain
healthy, auxiliary lymph nodes which are located in the underarm area.
WHO SHOULD USE OUR PRODUCTS?
Approximately
ten percent of our population cannot use conventional deodorants for
various reasons. Generally, either the perfumes which are used to mask
odor or the antiperspirant ingredients will act as allergens and cause
rash and irritation. For this reason, men and women who have sensitive
skin require hypoallergenic, fragrance free products. The problem with
most natural deodorant products is efficacy. Fortunately, Naturally
Fresh Deodorant Crystal products are extremely gentle, yet amazingly
effective. This is the perfect product for active people seeking a
healthy alternative and better lifestyle.
WHAT ABOUT THE ALUMINUM ISSUE?
Aluminum compounds are abundant in our environment. They are found in most foods and drinking water.
Many
people and doctors have concerns in respect to the processed aluminums
found in conventional deodorants. These processed aluminums have very
small molecules and can penetrate the skin. Alum, on the other hand, is
naturally occurring and not processed. It has a large molecule and does
not penetrate the surface of the skin.
HOW DO DOCTORS FEEL ABOUT NATURALLY FRESH DEODORANTS?
Allergists,
Dermatologists and Oncologists all recommend the Naturally Fresh
Deodorant Crystal brand of deodorants to their patients.
The
manufacturer/distributor, TCCD International will be detailing doctors
all over the United States with trial/travel size samples throughout the
year.
WHICH PRODUCT DO MOST PEOPLE PREFER?
It
depends on the person. However, if the person has allergies, we would
recommend the spray mist as this is the most gentle product.
HOW DO YOU USE THE PRODUCT?
Moisten
the stone by running it under water and apply it to underarms as you
would any other deodorant. It is recommended to run it under water after
applying then dry the stick off. The roll on and spray mist may be
applied directly to your underarms. They do not have to be wet before
use.
I AM USING IT AND IT IS NOT WORKING?
Everyone’s
body is different. On some people it may work immediately but on others
it may take up to 2-3 weeks before it may begin to work as your body
adjusts.
I HAVE AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE HOW MANY TIMES SHOULD I APPLY THE DEODORANT?
Use it as needed; it is not harmful to your health. The more active you are the more you should apply the deodorant.
WHY AM I STILL SWEATING?
Naturally Fresh deodorant is not an antiperspirant. You will continue to sweat, however, you will not have any underarm odor.
HOW DO I KNOW WHEN THE PRODUCT EXPIRES?
The
crystal stick never expires if it is not opened. Once it has been
opened, the product is good for one year. The roll on and spray mist
have a 2 year shelf life if unopened. Once they are opened they are also
good for one year.
IS IT SAFE FOR CHILDREN TO USE?
We recommend seeking professional advice from your physician.
WHAT DOES THE PINK RIBBON MEAN?
The
pink ribbon means “Cancer Awareness”. It was developed by the Susan G
Komen foundation. TCCD International is a consistent financial
contributor to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
CAN THESE PRODUCTS STAIN MY COUNTERTOPS?
Yes,
they can. Although they are very gentle on people’s skin they can stain
various types of surfaces, because they are made from mineral salts.
Please keep the product dry after use. Wipe the surface by removing any
wet spots after use.
But what about potassium and ammonium alum which is found commonly in deodorant crystals and sticks? Is this safe?
It is defined as:
Alum
\Al"um\ (&?;), n. [OE. alum, alom, OF. alum, F. alun, fr. L. alumen
alum.] (Chem.) A double sulphate formed of aluminium and some other
element (esp. an alkali metal) or of aluminium. It has twenty-four
molecules of water of crystallization.
ammonium alum n : a white crystalline double sulfate of aluminum: the ammonium double sulfate of aluminum
potassium alum n : a white crystalline double sulfate of aluminum: the potassium double sulfate of aluminum
The
chemical formula for potassium alum is K2SO4AL2(SO4)3 24H2O. Potassium
alum is a colorless substance that forms large octahedral or cubic
crystals. It is white, transparent, and very astringent. Bauxite is the
ore from which alum is drawn. It is formed by the rapid weathering of
granite rocks in warm, humid climates and can be purified and converted
directly into alum. Potassium alum is soluble in seven times its weight
of water at room temperature and is very soluble in hot water. When
crystalline potassium alum is heated, some of the water of hydration
becomes chemically separated, and the partly dehydrated salt dissolves
in this water, so that the alum appears to melt at about 90 degrees C
(approx. 194 degrees F). When heated to 200 degrees C (approx. 392
degrees F), potassium alum swells up, loses all water, and becomes a
basic salt called burnt alum. Potassium alum has a density of 1.725.
The
deodorant stones feature physically large potassium or ammonium alum
molecules and are not absorbed into the skin/blood. Water has a
molecular weight of 18. A potassium alum crystal molecule has a
molecular weight of 474.38. A potassium or ammonium alum crystal
molecule, in solution, is hydrated 24 times and consequently has a
molecular weight of 654. It is impossible through natural means to get
water to permeate the skin. Witness the large number of moisturizers
available at the cosmetic counter and imagine how difficult it would be
for a molecule that weighs 36.3 times as much as water to permeate the
skin.
The pH of the solution resulting from the topical
application of potassium alum with perspiration is typically in the
slightly acid range of 4 to 5.
Alum is a natural compound in
nature, is present in the water we drink, in almost all the foods we
eat, and in the air we breathe. The compound has many uses -- medicinal
(induces vomiting, astringents in medicine); pickling; setting dyes; in
fire extinguishers; in cutting paper; and in baking powder. According to
a study conducted at the University of Wisconsin, the average American
adult diet includes between 20 to 60 milligrams of alum per day, of
which 20 to 50 milligrams come from FDA-approved food additives. Another
2 to 10 milligrams come from the natural content of the foods eaten.
In
its natural form, alum is the third most abundant element in nature,
after oxygen and silicon. It has been part of our environment since the
beginning of time and is one of the basic building blocks of our
universe. It makes up almost 8% of the earth’s crust, surpassed in
quantity only by oxygen at 47% and silicon at 28%. It is in soil and
clays that only when processed produce metallic aluminum products.
Will this Reduce my Perspiration?
Naturally
Fresh Deodorants are just that – deodorants. They are not
anti-perspirants which inhibit the flow of perspiration. Your body will
still be allowed to naturally expel toxins through sweat; there simply
won’t be any of the accompanying odors. Ideally, these deodorants
should be applied to the skin directly after bathing. In that way, the
bacteria that cause the odor have not yet had the chance to form on the
skin and the barrier that the deodorant provides is at its peak
effectiveness.
How are these deodorants different than what's on the market?
Most
deodorants mask body odor with a perfumed scent, or contain alcohol to
shrink pores, or aluminum chlorohydrate/aluminum zirconium. These
compounds enter the pores and physically block or clog them to reduce
the flow of perspiration (when dissolved is selectively absorbed by the
liver, kidney, brain, cartilage and bone morrow). In essence, they
inhibit the body’s natural expulsion of toxins. It is this
concentration of aluminum that has been the source for concern in the
medical community and has prompted the research being done on
ALZIHEIMER'S DISEASE and BREAST CANCER victims. Potassium alum, on the
other hand has a negative ionic charge, making it unable to penetrate
the cell wall. This is why our products work as a deodorant, not an
antiperspirant. THEY ARE NOT ABSORBED. This is why our deodorants are
safe and DO NOT CONTAIN ALUMiNUM CHLORHYDRATE or ALUMINUM ZIRCONIUM.
What are additional benefits of these products?
Because
it is a solely topical product it is completely hypoallergenic. It is
also fragrance free, non-sticky, and will not stain or otherwise
adversely affect your clothing (even the most delicate, such as silk).
It leaves no white flakes or residue on your clothing or skin and is
Environmentally Safe.
