Underarm odor

In: health| health and medicine

30 Nov 2009

I have few co-workers who have underarm odor. It is very offensive. It made me more conscious of my own personal hygiene. Health care professionals should be models of good personal hygiene. It is sad to say that many of them have underarm odor. I just hope everyone of us be aware if we have it and do something about it. Having underarm odor will let us down. Normally sweat is odourless, but when acted upon by bacteria it produces an unpleasant smell. Hygiene is very important, with daily bathing and a daily change of clothing a must to stay fresh and odor-free. If you are uncomfortable with the idea of using chemical deodorants, you could try more natural antis-sweat remedies:

1.) Tawas crystal deodorants, which are made from 100 percent natural mineral salts and work by neutralizing odor-causing bacteria. It is gentle enough for sensitive skin and won’t stain clothes or discolour skin.

2.) Non-conventional skin applications of tea tree oil, ginger juice, turnip juice, apple cider vinegar, and radish juice. You can also try adding sea salt or apple cider vinegar to the bath water.
