ELI5: If sweating is a required process to regulate internal body temperature, why don't antiperspirants and deodorants cause health issues?

The body has to remain a certain temperature in order to function properly. Sweating is one of the ways the body tries to cool ourselves down if the body is too warm. Antiperspirants stop sweating. Why don't they cause us to fall ill?

Simply because you don't apply antiperspirant all over your body. We put it on in our pits as that is a place where it's easy to sweat and also for the moisture to allow bacteria (which smells) to grow. If you don't sweat under your arms, you can still sweat on your face, back, arms, legs, belly, etc.
