DontTradeUrSoul: This is simply called sleep hypnosis. It used to happen to me as well. But I later figured out a way out of it. I will be sharing the solution I found with you here. Stop sleeping on your back with your face upwards to the ceiling. I have trained myself to reject that sleeping position. Learn to sleep on your sides or on your chest |

If you want to get rid of this Stop eating fresh fish Stop using spices in your stew and food Eat plenty of pineapple fruits. Get activated charcoal ( from any organic shop) or you can buy from me. Mix it with aloe vera gel to form a mask and apply it there for like an hour before you bath. Activated charcoal is highly medicinal and draws out impurities from the body. Bathe with antiseptic soap like Dettol cool or better still use dude osun or zee soap to bath. Get original sure men roll-on and use after the mask. 1 Like |

Reachable: Hello. Kindly listen carefully. First things first. You will need to SHAVE off all Body Hair. Body Hair is the major cause of Odour on the body and skin. You will need to shave all off. Chest hair, Stomach Hair, Pubic Hair, Thighs Hair, Armpit Hair and everywhere else you have hair. You can shave off or leave the hair on your head as long as you are taking care of it well. Body Hair causes odour. How? When a person with body hair sweats, the sweats comes out of the skin, mixes with the bacteria (Yes...there are bacteria on skin) on the skin and stays on the body hair refusing to dry off lingering on thereby causing smell. Also remember that sweat is a waste product that comes out from the largest organ in the body which is the SKIN. Thats why Skincare is a full time job because the skin is an organ. Once you have shaved, your body is as smooth as a baby, you will need to buy LIME. Yes...LIME. When you want to bath, cut the Lime into 2. Take one part and scrub it on your Armpits. Take the second half and do same for the second. You can repeat it for another ball of lime. Then you bath normally. When bathing, pay close attention to areas such as Armpits, Pubic Region, Inside your Ears, under your Neck and Groin. With this you will be good. You won't even need Rollon or whatsoever. You will be feeling clean, fresh and when you sweat, it drys up immediately because there is no hair on the body and there won't be any odour atall. Shaving should be done more often especially during hot weather. Hair on any part of the body doesn't allow liquid to dry off. That's why if u pour water on yourself form head to toe, you will discover that the water on your head with hair on it is always the last to dry off until you towel dry. But if u barb complete skin, the water on your head drys immediately sometimes even before you leave the bathroom becos there's no hair there. You will even discover that once your body is smooth and hairless, you won't even need to use sponge on your skin just soap becos you've already done 80% of bathing work by body shaving. You will just lather up soap and rob all over your skin and u will love the texture. And believe me, you will be feeling fresh all day long. Though if u want to still sponge after this process, no problem. Once you start this process of total body shaving, make it a Rountine. Infact once a month. Skincare is a Rountine. Personal Hygiene is a full time job. Armpits shaving should be twice a week. Pubic hair...twice a week. Then make sure, your lime is part of your soap. Then invest in a good cream. Rob the cream preferably a body lotion. Something that won't make u start sweating. Rob it all over your clean skin to Moisturize it. The cream will enter into the Skin making it smelling fresh. Then get a good perfume and you are good to go. Also make sure u shower in the night as well. Then WATER. Make sure your drinking enough water and are going to toilet regularly atleast once a day. Try empty your bowels everyday. These helps to flush your inside and keep it clean and fresh all day long. Try and do all I have stated and you will thank me. For more tips on Skincare, u can DM.

Reachable: what's the texture of the sponge you use? Try a hard sponge if you're using a soft one now. And scrub your armpit very well. You'd most likely notice a change |

Mandela27:In addition to what you have being using, when you are to brush your teeth make sure you do not spit out the foam quickly, let the foam remain in your mouth till you are through brushing. You can achieve this by raising your head while at it. Secondly, brush your tongue thoroughly and ensure the brush reaches the last part of your tongue, you will have the feeling of vomiting or you might even vomit but you will definitely be greatful if you can continue doing this. |

Reachable:I understand you. Try to stop the deodorant and buy alum. Sounds weird but after bathing always rub it in the smelly areas and also where you sweat the most. It’s odorless and it keeps that places really dry and the odor just disappears. Try it for a week and you’ll see changes 1 Like |

frozen70: Being a man isn’t easy. When the world’s not telling you what it means to be masculine, it’s telling you how to dress, how to shave, how to smell – no wonder things can get a little sweaty. Sweating is a fact of life, we all do it, and body odour is part of that package. So, rather than worrying about what others expect of you, take a look at what the cause of sweating actually is and manage it properly so you can say no to bad B.O. WHAT CAUSES SWEATING? There are many causes of sweating – exercise, nerves, hot weather. It’s a natural bodily process that occurs as a response to hormones like adrenalin, or to help you regulate your body temperature when things heat up. WHAT IS BODY ODOUR? Body odour the smell our bodies give off when they sweat. Everyone is different when it comes to how much they sweat, and what it smells like, but we’re all likely to experience it in common areas like the feet, groin, and armpits. WHAT CAUSES BODY ODOUR? Sweat is not actually the culprit behind B.O. What causes sweat to smell is the amount of bacteria in sweat and the breaking down of sweat into acids. Why do armpits sweat and smell of B.O. more than other areas? It’s all thanks to conveniently placed sweat glands that secrete into hair follicles. Bacteria love moist areas and the hair can trap sweat and moisture to provide the perfect breeding ground. Sweat glands are found in other hairy areas too, which is why they often feel sweaty (and potentially a bit smelly). HOW TO FIGHT B.O. Now you know why do armpits sweat and smell, and the basic body odour causes, it’s time to look at how you banish it. GET TRIM Bacteria and hair follicles are friends, which is why armpits, the groin area, and other hairy areas are the B.O. hot spots. Shaving or trimming down your hair in these areas can help keep things fresh and clean. CLEAN UP Skipping showers and proper bathing is often at the root of what causes sweat to smell. Remember to shower every day, especially after trips to the gym. Take your hygiene one step further with an anti-bacterial soap and finish with fresh-smelling deodorants from LYNX. DRESS TO SWEAT LESS Perhaps you already shave and shower regularly. So why do armpits smell afterwards? The answer could be in your wardrobe. Synthetic fabrics such as rayon, nylon, and polyester don’t allow much airflow so switch it up and go for some organic options like cotton, wool, and linen. LEAVE YOUR SHOES AT THE DOOR Aussies might be onto something with their love of walking barefoot. Socks and shoes make it difficult for sweat to evaporate. Give your toes some breathing space by going barefoot when you can or opting for looser-fitting options. WATCH WHAT YOU EAT Did you know that diet can affect the way your sweat smells? The most common food culprits behind bad B.O. include spicy foods, garlic, hot peppers, and curry. Try cutting back on them and see if you notice a change. BANISH B.O. What causes sweaty armpits? What causes body odour? Hopefully, you’ve got all the answers now. As much of a nuisance as sweating and B.O. can be, they are a natural part of life. Instead of worrying, learn how to manage them and say no to body odour. Copied from the Internet. In addition boils may be caused by the shaving or the type of shaving stick that leads to in growth hair then boils. Rather than not shave, better to shave with either good shaving stick, or shaving cream. And pleas euse deodorant, I find sure the best. Try the roll on and the spray. Bug you really can't afford not to shave and use deodorant and expect miracles as a young energetic person and not smell |
Re: What Can I Do About My Body Odour? by eeetuk(m): 2:02am On Dec 12, 2020 |
Do the following two things to control your body odors: 1. Wash your feet [ top and bottom] when you are taking showers. Many people only wash the top part of their feet, and overlook the bottom part. That is a problem because anything that moves smells. 2. Eat apples [ atleast once a day]. Do these two things and see what happens next to your body odors. |

It might be hard to do, but the best thing to do would be go vegan, and also cut down sugary drinks and food from your diet. Meat, chicken, fish, drinks...all these take a lot to burn, and when your body burns these foods, you sometimes sweat out the waste, which leads to body odor. Drastically cut down on all forms of processed food. Eat more fruit and vegetables, and grains (beans, rice, corn, etc). 1 Like |

Bro... we are not experts ... but can give advice on possible causes. Drowning the scent will not solve the problem.... neither will bathing every five minutes. The problem is internal. Boils / abscesses can be caused if you use roll-on deodorants. Then again.... you use Sure... how are you so sure it is the original? Some deodorants contain aluminium and other heavy metals which can affect you. If you must use a deodorant... use Arm and Hammer .... or any one using natural stuff su h as baking soda... or better... as someone suggested... cut lemon. On cause of odour.... bleaching / toning creams... or creams with skin lightening contents will cause the body to give off odours. Stop using creams period... use traditional black soap to bathe.... drink plenty of water... stop eating spicy foods.... and sodas/ high energy drinks.... drink coconut water... from the coconut and not the can labeled coconut water.... give it a few weeks and see what happens. In a nutshell.... go natural. |
