The Whys and Wherefores of Body Odor



We hope that you finish this article having learned at least a little bit of new information. If so, then we have done our job.

Your skin is the biggest organ of your body (despite what some men may think!) As such, it is part of the breathing apparatus for your body. The skin is also extremely absorbent. To make this more believable to you place a few drops of sheer peppermint oil on the souls of your feet. Inside 10 to 15 minutes you will taste the peppermint in your mouth. Nicotine patches and those used for H R T and other medical reasons work just the same way, on the absorbency of the skin.

Given the high level of transference from 'outside' to 'inside' you would really speculate why lettering on labels of numerous preparations states: 'for external use only' or 'not to be swallowed'. Well folks, what you put on the skin does get to the rest of the body system so be conscious of what you eagerly apply to your skin.

Now, with that clip of information out of the way, let us go back to some of the reasons why body odor exists. As well as being extremely absorbent the skin is an organ of elimination. When we perspire and the sweat literally drips off us, you get an idea of the amount of fluid transferred to the external layers of skin. Many, many toxins are eliminated through the skin in this manner. Have you ever noticed the relationship between what you eat and your underarm odor? If you are a heavy meat eater you may not see a lot of difference. If you only eat meat occasionally, you may observe the change in body odor. You will become aware of a difference if you dine on Indian (from India) nature food with many aromatic spices, as this will come through the body pores.

If you liked the first section of this article, stay tuned because we have more to follow in the next section!

If, for instance, you participate in any nature of detoxification/cleansing of your body, this can increase the intensity of body smell. Most likely, your tongue will look pasty and furry. This is all part of the body ridding itself of accumulated toxins. Your urine may be rather strong as well during this healing practice and this is all very natural. Do be guided by your Health Professional here though. This practice can go on for some time awaiting your body clears itself of the accumulated debris. You will come out of this feeling energized, healthier and in a greatly better condition to keep away from what is typically called disease.


So, if you want to 'smell nice' lacking the use of antiperspirants, deodorizers, perfumes and unguents then you need to address the causal. This is achieved by altering your eating habits and participating in recurrent cleansing awaiting your body is clearer.

Taking note of the fact above, that your skin is like a sponge taking in what you put on it, the evaluation of product labels is greatly recommended. If you cannot easily pronounce the name of any of the ingredients then maybe it is a chemical that your body is not handling either.

When your digestive system is working well with good bowel function then your feces and any flatus will have only a small amount of odor. This will only occur with particular diet and after your body is well cleansed of old morbid matter.

You can take control of your health, if you decide to take the job. If not you are at the mercy of outside influences and currents. It is wholly your choice!
