Sweat itself doesn't smell. Bacteria on your skin and foods like garlic, onion, and curry create the odor. Wash with antiseptic, keep underarms dry with antiperspirant, trim the hair short, or try Botox for lasting sweat reduction.
Last question. Body odor. Because body odor stinks, no pun intended, but it can really affect your quality of life. So knowing how to help yourself is huge. Everybody sweats everywhere, but sweat does not have a smell. It's when it comes into contact with your skin that the smell develops. However, if you are sick, if you take certain medications, and if you eat certain foods, it can change the composition of the sweat before it gets secreted. So once it's secreted, it can even smell even worse. So foods you should avoid, onion, garlic, cumin, curry, alcohol, asparagus, all change that inner composition. That will make the smell of your sweat more rancid. Two, making sure that you clean really well. Using an antiseptic like Hibicleans is key. Keeping the hair short so that it doesn't hold on to bacteria, making the smell worse in the process. And last, deodorant only masks the smell. So you're basically putting perfume on top of something that's going to smell bad, it's going to smell even worse in the process. You want to use an antiperspirant that blocks the sweat from coming out. And if you want a step further, Botox can help do it on a longer term.
