According to one of my favorite dermatologists, founder and chief of the Department of Cosmetic Dermatology at the University of Miami and author of The Skin Type Solution, Dr. Leslie Baumann, M.D., parabens in deodorants may be less irritating than natural ingredients. As Dr. Baumann states in her blog on March 16, 2009, “Natural ingredients are much more likely than parabens to cause a skin rash. ” Indeed, most scientists conclude that parabens in the concentrations found in deodorants are safe, as Dr. Baumann establishes in the October 2007 issue of Entrepreneur magazine: “For those not allergic to parabens, there are no scientifically established reasons to avoid the plethora of cosmetic and skin care products that contain these preservatives.” (For more on parabens, please visit this very comprehensive review of parabens by Dr. Baumann, and a brief FutureDerm review here.)

Methylparaben is commonly used with latex products. Since staying away from parabens, my skin is significantly less red. Hospitals have to reformulate any "sticks" and I heal significantly faster. It is difficult to explain just how much faster my healing took place after major surgery last year without parabens and latex products.(I compare to my c-section 15 years ago, gallbadder 13 years ago, and another surgery 3 years ago). My advice: Stay away from parabens (and latex). Plenty of healthier alternatives abound.
