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..

Ramadan

I heard the word “Ramadan” a lot of times, in fact today is declared holiday here because it’s the end of “ramadan?” I was just kinda curious about what really “ramadan” means, I did some research, and here I will share some of my research about it. The name Ramadan is derived from the Arabic word ramida or ar-ramad, denoting intense scorching heat and dryness, especially the ground. From the same word there is ramdaa, meaning “sunbaked sand” and the famous proverb Kal Mustajeer minar ramadaa binnar—to jump out of the frying pan into the fire. Some say it is so called because Ramadan scorches out the sins with good deeds, as the sun burns the ground. Ramadan brings out a special feeling of emotional excitement and religious zeal among Muslims of all ages. Though fasting is mandatory only for adults, children as young as eight willingly observe fasting with their elders. Children look forward to the excitement of sighting the moon and eating special meals with their fami
