Body odor is of two ways to me ....

First, most parent don't shower or bath their baby very well and regularly at birth and throughout their child hood.

Secondly, most people don't take bath serious.

true

I heard body odor is from birth, I haven't seen a person with body odor all my life.

Bath regularly, keep clothes clean and dry, wear light clothing. Keep yourself dry as much as possible

If it's as a result of bleaching, take more red oil and vitamin c then pray

Most people wit body odour don't know that they do. I heard that using lime to watch the armpit and other smelly parts can prevent unnecessary body odour. How true?

lemon can do the job.. It kills those bacterias that are responsible for the smell/odour..

Tacha, how market!

Adopt yoga..

I think this yoga of a thing is just over hyped
How can sitting and keeping quite stop body odor

Bathing twice a day will eliminate any form of body odour. Unfortunately this is not realistic for all of us so the use of antiperspirants (not deodorants) does the trick. If your odour is too strong or you want to eliminate it for 72 hours then a combination of a roll on then spraying when dry with antiperspirant will delete any offending smell till further notice.

I remember Ahneeka of BBNaija Double Wahala never (I didn't say hardly) bathed but used the combination mentioned above to stay 'fresh'. I never knew it was a thing until I realised a sibling of mine practiced it religiously.

WATCH

Dentalgist:
Sweating is the secretion of fluids by sweat glands onto the surface of the skin, mainly for the purpose of maintaining body temperature within an ideal range. This happens when the body temperature rises due to physical exertion or being in hot surroundings, the evaporation of sweat from the skin produces a cooling effect.

Sweat doesn’t smell, however, one can develop an odour when the acids in the sweat are being broken down by skin bacteria. The waste products from this breakdown process produce an offensive smell referred to as BODY ODOUR.

WHEN CAN ONE LIKELY HAVE BODY ODOUR?

Once a person reaches puberty, body odour begins to occur as this is when the apocrine glands, which are located in the armpits, breasts, and genital-anal area become developed. Males are more likely to have body odour than females because they sweat more than females.

WHO’S IS AT RISK OF HAVING BODY ODOUR

Below are categories of people at higher risk of having body odour;

1. Obese People

2. Persons who regularly eat spicy food

3. Individuals with certain medical conditions such as diabetes, hyperhidrosis (People who sweat too much), etc are more susceptible to having body odour.

Body odour can have a pleasant and specific smell to the individual and can be used to identify people, especially by dogs and other animals. Each person’s unique body odour can be influenced by diet, gender, health, and medication.

CAUSES OF BODY ODOUR

Body odour is caused by bacteria breaking down sweat and is largely linked to the apocrine glands. These glands are found in the breasts, genital area, eyelids, armpits, and ear. In the breasts, they secrete fat droplets into breast milk. In the ear, they help form earwax. Apocrine glands in the skin and the eyelids are sweat glands.

The apocrine glands are mainly responsible for body odour because the sweat they produce is high in protein, which bacteria can break down easily.

Also, medical conditions such as Overweight, diabetes, gout, tumour, menopause, frostbite, overactive thyroid, pituitary gland disorders, head injury, excessive alcohol consumption, infectious diseases, etc are also the leading causes of body odour

DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF BODY ODOUR

If you have an offensive body odour and you are concerned about you could see your doctor who may in some cases prescribe aluminium chloride.

However, to curtail body odour, one is advised to;

1. Use of Antiperspirants which contains aluminium-based compounds that temporarily block sweat pores, thereby reducing the amount of perspiration that reaches your skin.

2. Use of Deodorants contain perfume fragrances intended to mask odour. Deodorants can eliminate odour but not perspiration and are usually alcohol-based and can turn your skin acidic making it less attractive to bacteria.

3. Gradual shift in lifestyle which includes;

a. Regular bathe daily with an antibacterial soap.

b. Choose clothing to suit your activity.

c. Adopt relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation or biofeedback which can help teach you to control the stress that triggers perspiration.

d. Change your diet by reducing caffeinated beverages and spicy or strong-smelling foods which may make you sweat more or have stronger body odour than usual.

its when the bacteria break down protein(not acid) in our sweat that's what results to what you term body odour..

fullclub:
hope u didn't write this topic to ridicule that BBM naija girl

sir, please, what's "bbm Naija" ?

Using deodorants like you recommend is very detrimental to your hearth.some deodorants contain aluminium chlorohydrate,so medically is not advisable to have it in your system.

That’s literally rubbing acid on ur skin....in theory it could help with the smelling...but u will kill the cutaneous bacteria meant to be ur skin....just like the ones in ur stomach, they play important role in preventing disease such as cancer...... no rub rub lime on ur skin ooooooo

I was told by an experienced mother that a child wasn't bathed properly at birth end up having body odor. Poor hygiene too is another factor. But that lady's own in #BBN house could be as a result of skin toning.

Ok

Anybody with body odour and does not want to treated it medically should cultivate the habit of drinking lots of water and eating of fruits, am sure overtime it will really reduce if not stop.

Do you board public transport if you're in Lagos, Red Lagbus, molue, Tata bus and even danfo because they abound. If you're an Ajebo, you may never.

really? amazing!

Body odor and armpit odor are two different things. Armpit odor can happen as a result of not taking care of the body. Armpit odor can be controlled completely contained while body odor is the odor that the whole of your body produces. Body odor is very offensive that you can cannot stay long with the person that suffers it.

well,lemon does not kill bacteria or bacterium.what it does is to make the body un conjucive for them to inhabit.. That's because it contains citric acid.. It's just like when a cancer patient balances his or her PH level, the cancer cell will die off naturally. This is a secret you will never be told by doctors that are on industry payroll.. Many of the diseases that are killing people today are curable naturally, well make I stop here.
