I don't have any underarm odour before I started my professional career. But now I don't know why it has started smelling bad. I'm not doing any kind of regular exercise daily and Spending most of the time in the Air conditioning rooms my diet plans also been changed. Is that the reason why my sweat getting odour. Some people around me told that I'm taking too much salt in diet. That is why it is getting bad odour. Is that true.. Please suggest me to reduce it and any specific deit required to take. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Hell lybrate-user, sweating is a natural phenomena to reduce the body temperature and release toxins. However too much odour can to due to a lot of modification in your lifestyle in terms of diet and activity. Try following - 1. Increase your water intake to 3-4 litres. As one does not feel the thrist in air-conditioning however ac can dehyrate the body more due to low sensation of thirst leading to increased body odour. 2. Excess intake of junk foods, spicy foods with very high sulphur containing ingredients like onion, garlic etc should be avoided. 3. Doing 30 mins of any physical activity to increase the circulation of blood in your system for better de-toxification. 4. Having good 2-3 fruits and vegetables per day to cleanse your system.
