The other function of sweating is removing toxins from your system, like peeing but to a lesser extent. I remember seeing a study a long time ago linking a rise in breast cancer to the advancement of anti-perspirant (as opposed to just deoderant) technology. But I never saw anything like it since.

Anyway, I imagine SM will be fine as long as the rest of his body is allowed to sweat normally.

that was an urban legend. I spent 10 years as a licensed mammographer--the underarm deo/anti-pers. thing was bogus. On a line with microwaving your baby's formula takes out all the nutrients. My 14 year old son is 6'5" and still growing and I nuked his bottle every day!
