Body Odor
Body odor is not always the result of poor hygiene. It could be that your deodorant is not doing its job for you.
When choosing your deodorant, be sure to read labels. Look for the ingredient zirconium aluminum, which is more effective than those containing a aluminum chloride. You should also really like the scent of the deodorant, or you’ll be better off choosing unscented.
Deodorant vs. Antiperspirant
The difference between a deodorant and an antiperspirant is simple. A deodorant covers up odor from any perspiration, usually with a fragrance. An antiperspirant actually plugs the opening of armpit sweat glands so that the perspiration never reaches the skin’s surface. Some heath experts recommend using a deodorant so that you don’t stop your body from sweating, which is natural and healthy. Others state that it won’t heart you to stop the action of a few sweat glands since you’ve got so many all over your body.
Underarm Odor & Wetness
- The best time to apply a deodorant or antiperspirant is after a shower or bath so that your body will not have had time to develop sweat. Make sure that the area under your arm is completely dry before applying your deodorant so that its strengths will not be diluted in any way.
- Always be sure to wait a couple of minutes before dressing so that the deodorant or antiperspirant doesn’t rub off on your clothes. Depending on the weather and your level of activity, it’s possible to work up enough of the sweat later in the day that you might need to reapply your products.
- A little powder over the deodorant will keep the deodorant secure, and your underarms dry.
Body odor has a strong genetic basis both in animals and humans, but it can be also strongly influenced by various diseases and psychological conditions, so make sure you take your proper treatment & precautions.
