At last, a safe deodorant and a safe dentist

Re the letter from Alisdair Barcroft in WDDTY, vol 11 no 3 on antidepressants, I heard about the connection with breast cancer some time ago and, since then, have been on a quest to find a safe, non antiperspirant deodorant that actually works. I have finally found one by Tom's of Maine called Nature's Deodorant unscented, with aloe, lichen and coriander. Obviously, it does not contain aluminium and is really effective.

On another note, thanks to your amalgam conference in May last year, I have joined PAMA and obtained from them a list of mercury free dentists. I was lucky enough to find one in my immediate area. After years of being made to feel like a crank and being fobbed off by the various dentists I have had, it is a huge relief to have found a dentist I can really trust. Thank you. Keep up the good work! Juliette Young, Teddington, Middx....
