How to Get Rid of Body Odor

Tips for Getting Rid of Body Odor:
*Stay away from refined sugar - it feeds bacteria and will increase your body odor many times over.
*Go for a jog or sit in a sauna. You’ll be stinking it up at first, but after a while you’ll flush out your pores and notice that your sweat no longer stinks.
*Anti-perspirants work to reduce odor, but they do so by clogging your pores and locking the odor-causing toxins and bacteria underneath the skin. This can lead to underarm cysts and pimples.
*If all else fails, spot wash with soap and water.
*Try and stay cool, sweat is a transmitter of the odor.
*Apply an absorbent powder such as baby powder to your underarms after bathing.
*A baking soda+water paste applied to the areas of smelliness can help neutralize existing odor.
*Alcohol and tobacco are known to contribute to foul body odors - cut back on the day of your big date.
