13 Comments

I've tried every deordant out there. So don't een try to name one. Nothing works! It is so frustrating. I will always sweat and have body odor no matter what. I bathe for 20 minutes or more every night. And I brush my teeth and everything else all the time. I hate that I smell bad and idk what to do. Does anybody have any tips on what they did to stop smelling. What works!?? Im desperate! And it can't be expensive!

    Salt.
    Get a salt stick in the deodorant section of the drug store. They eliminate the bacteria that causes the smell in the first place.

      Thisissomuchfun is one of the only people who knows what they're talking about.

      Odor is not caused by sweat. Sweat is essentially saline (salt water) and is odorless. Odor is caused by bacteria that lives on your skin, which can be worsened by sweat. However, some sweat glands can cause this bacteria.

      Long story short, this is more of an infection and less of a wetness issue. Talk to a doctor. Then paypal me $25 dollars for the medical advice. Just kidding. But seriously, get a prescription.

    I work at a nutrition store. You could try a full body cleanse. It could be toxins in your body seeping out, especially if you have taken medications or have been I'll recently. Also, try chlorophyll. It helps balance out your body's ph levels and also helps with body odors! :))

    I've heard there is a medical condition with your sweat glands I think. You're ok, just find the doctor who can help ya. Search for it online. I saw this pn a medical show on tv. It's out there & you're not the only one.

    Along with every one else's comments, drink lots of water. It helps to flush the toxins from your body that make you smelly.

    I doubt deoderant ever works anyway... Girls i've spoken too say they still smell it, it just hides odours. the best thing to do would be try to eat better and drink alot of water, try the baking soda Idea up there as well

    Kricket made a very good point, diet has a lot to do with this... no racism meant but Indians and Pakistanis face this problem because of their extremely spicy food, I worked with them for a while so I know what I'm talking about. Sorry again, no offence meant to any nationality.

    You need to see an endocrinologist. It could be a problem with your sweat glands. I know it's not the core of their speciality but they'll find out if your sweat contains abnormal secretions that cause you to smell.

    Try bathing in baking soda. This may sound weird but you can also add tea bags to your bath water and soak. Tea is an odor eliminator. Haha I said tea bag.

    Sometimes diet has something to do with it. Also hormones.
