RHAMNOSE

Extraction: natural polysaccharide obtained from the buckthorn (Rhamnus catharticus), a thorny shrub of the Ramnaceae family.

Benefits: this polysaccharide acts as a prebiotic in the formulation of the deodorant. It prevents body odour causing bacteria (Staphylococcus epidirmidis and Corynebacterium xerosis) from adhering to the skin and spreading around the armpit.
