Body Odor, How to Reduce Naturally?

People produce half a liter of sweat every day.
Most of the sweat evaporates into the air without much trouble, but some were trapped, for example in the armpits. The bacteria will quickly grow and become a body odor.

There are several ways to help us to reduce this body odor:

• Maintain cleanliness. Bathing regularly is paramount in fighting body odor. Use an antiseptic or antibacterial soap.
• Choose your clothes carefully. The tight clothing and synthetic type cause more sweat than usual clothing. so wear loose-fitting clothes made of cotton and so your body can breathe.
• Use anti-perspirants and deodorants. Anti-perspirants contain aluminum salts which can reduce sweating by closing the channels of sweat. Deodorants, on the other hand contain antiseptic against bacteria. deodorants help reduce the smell but did not reduce the sweat posteriority.
• Drink plenty of water. Drink more water and avoid caffeinated drinks, chocolate, and too fat. Avoid eating foods or also smelly vegetables.
• Consumption of vegetables such as basil.
• Use antiseptic powder before you sleep.
• Avoid stress. One other factor that causes body odor is stress. Because stress can stimulate the production of sweat. As a result Ekrin glands (eccrine glands) and apocrine become more active. So try to stay away from stress.
• Avoid hot drinks. Hot beverages can increase body heat and increase perspiration. so if you are worried about your body odor, it’s good to get used to drink cool water (not too cold).
• Use perfume. Perfume may not be able to overcome the body sweat instantly, but they will help when it smells occurred.
