Milk of Magnesia Roll-On Deodorant from The People's Pharmacy
We developed People's Pharmacy Milk of Magnesia Roll-on Deodorant thanks to the countless testimonials from our readers. It is an excellent, non-irritating deodorant that is not based on the aluminum compounds commonly found in irritating antiperspirants.People wonder how Milk of Magnesia deodorant works. Our chemist hypothesizes:  Our eccrine and apocrine glands secrete an odorless mixture of salts, sugars, amino acids, ions, urea, and possibly some lipids.  Microbial action on these secretions produce underarm odor.  Since Magnesium Hydroxide is alkaline, it creates an inhospitable environment for microorganisms. (The Roll on is nearly preserved just by the MgOH)  No microorganisms: no odor.
