I Stopped Wearing Deodorant For A Year & This Happened

About this video

Centeno shares his year-long experiment of not wearing deodorant and explores the history, health concerns, and alternatives to commercial deodorants. He discusses the marketing origins of deodorant use, potential risks of aluminum-based antiperspirants, and practical strategies like showering frequency, undershirts, and diet to manage body odor naturally.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues that deodorant use was largely a marketing strategy, particularly targeting men starting in the 1930s, and that many people don’t actually need it due to genetics or naturally low body odor
• Centeno recommends examining deodorant ingredients and choosing natural alternatives without aluminum, parabens, or triclosan, as he believes skin absorbs what is applied to it
• Centeno suggests managing body odor through showering frequency, wearing undershirts as barriers, changing clothes regularly, and being mindful of diet choices like red meat, fish, and garlic that may increase odor
