Aluminium from antiperspirants is not readily absorbed. We ingest a lot more aluminium simply from our daily diets. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/articl

  Interesting link - thanks. So where does the aluminum in our diet come from? Is it just a mineral that gets passed up the food chain? Do we touch aluminum metal enough to contaminate our food with it?

  Relevent sentences from the abstract: At this rate, about 4 μg of aluminium is absorbed from a single use of ACH on both underarms. This is about 2.5% of the aluminium typically absorbed by the gut from food over the same time period. Therefore, a one-time use of ACH applied to the skin is not a significant contribution to the body burden of aluminium.
