At last, a safe deodorant and a safe dentist

email to friend Printer friendly

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....

As an ex medical writer for a top laboratory, I would like to congratulate you on what you are doing.

I value the whistle-blowing, myth-breaking and original information I’ve received over the years. Sometimes it’s been well ahead of public and even NHS awareness.

- R.L., Sturminster Newton

You disseminate information so that we can make informed choices as to the safest, most efficacious treatments. We are guided by your information to, hopefully, a better and safer life. You highlight the hazards of allopathic medicine and people are thankful for that.

Keep up the good work. WDDTY is an invaluable source of up-to-date information which would be difficult for anyone not in the medical field to access any other way.

- S W-S, London WDDTY is informative, delightfully provocative, clearly and concisely written. You provide a much-needed antidote to the prevailing orthodoxy. I have made many of your articles available to patients who are trying to make decisions on the many topics you cover and they have all said how helpful they were. - M.C., London Your publication puts truth at a premium and empowers victims of medical arrogance—long may you flourish. - G.R., York
