Dear Dr. Graham,

my 20 year old daughter complains that she sweats excessively, including her hands at times. She has chosen to use Maxim a antiperspirant that has the 15-20% aluminum. She said she only uses it 3 times a week and it's the only thing that stops her embarrassing wet armpits. I have heard that aluminum in antiperspirants can be absorbed into the skin and that can contribute to Alzheimer's. Is this true? Also, she is very lean but not a vegan. Thank you in advance.
