Natural Deodorant

One of the worst things we do to our bodies is to stop it from sweating -- sweating helps the body get rid of toxins!  The use of anti-perspirants and deodorants can be pretty harmful to your health.

Here's a natural deodorant recipe that may not last through a basket ball game, but it will handle the every day walking around town stuff.  And it won't harm you!

Recipe:

1/2 t baking soda
2 T witch hazel
2 T boiling water
few drops of lavender oil, sandlewood oil or tea tree oil

1 -  4 oz glass spray bottle available at drug stores

Simply add the boiling water to the baking soda to dissolve.  Let it cool and add the witch hazel and your choice of oil.  Transfer to the spray bottle.

Big thanks to Myla over on Orcas Island for the recipe.  Cheers,  Chef Hobbes
