Body Odor

Body Odor is not exactly a topic of polite conversation, but it doesn't have to be. If you got it, you know it. You probably eager to get rid of it.

In some cultures and countries, intense body odor is considered to be a desirable characteristic, signifying sexual attractiveness and potency. 

Body odor begins with sweat. The body has two types of sweat glands, both of which produce sweat that is made up largely of water. The eccrine glands, which are located on almost every part of the body and the apocrine glands which are located in the armpits, around the nipples and in the groin produce sweat whose function is unclear, it contains a substantial amount of oil, which provides food for bacteria. It's this bacterial feeding frenzy that causes unwelcome odor.

Here are 5 deodorizing tips that may help:

* Wash problem areas frequently - at least once a day.
* Wash your clothing after each wearing.
* Try a deodorant. If that doesn't seem to eliminate the problem, buy some antiperspirant.
* If antiperspirants and deodorants irritate your skin, try using an antibacterial soap, antibiotic ointment, baking soda or talcum powder.
* Eliminate sweat-and-odor producing foods from your diet such as spicy food etc..
