Yes there definitely is becasue our body absorbs alll the toxins (good or bad) from food. It is only natural that what we put in we get out. It is actually artificial foods full of man made sugars and preservatives that are a great contributor to body odour. This is why many years ago they did not bathe as often or use deodorisers as much as we do today, it is simply because they did not consume the types of food we do now. We consume the foods they did as well as the more recently developed processed food. Researchers believe that this is why we have experienced an increase in body odour. So the more natural foods we consume the better. Also the less man made chmeicals in the processed foods we consume will help to reduce body odour.\nHope this helps you :)

If it is a constant problem, then adding fiber to your diet is a must.  You can do this by eating more foods rich in fiber (check the nutrition information), or using a supplement (although I know that you are looking for a homeopathic remedy).  Fiber One is a good supplement that has no smell or taste and mixes into any food or drink.  \n\nFoods rich in fiber are beans, broccoli, spinach, apples, raisins... there are tons. \n\nGood luck!

No, all people smell different.  It depends on what one eats, what perfumes/deoderants/lotions one uses.

I'm sorry to hear your problem.  I am not a doctor but I know that eating certain types of foods will cause body odor.  (eg. garlic, onions, lamb, curry, spices, etc)  I do not know anything about your situation but other things I would recommend.  Showering daily, changing and washing your clothes daily, using antiperspirant and deoderant.  These things will minimize your body odor.\nIf multiple people are bringing this up, there must be some validity to it.  Good Luck!

Ezema can be food or soap allergies.  Change soap you wash clothes in to Dreft.  Also, if you start deleting things from the diet such as dairy, breads, chocolate ...you will eventually trace it down.  Also, allergy Doctors or clinics can help with allergy detection and elimination.  My son was allergic to 21 differnet things that we fed him regularly such as orange juice, peas, ham and  our daily diet items.  Usually foods they like best & ask for the most can be allergy causing.  Try eliminating those first.

If you want more smelling farts, you have to include in your diet food containing amounts of Hydrogen Sulfide and Sulfur.  The more rich in Sulfur your diet is, more of those gases are going to be produced by the bacteria in the intestine, and  more smelly they will be your farts.\n\nFoods like onion, and eggs, are remarkable to produce stinking farts. On the other hand, for example, beans, produces great amounts of farts, although not necessarily smelly. Sorry aboyt my english... Enjoy your farts!

Yes, I suggest you consult a physician.  Sometimes B.O. is just a symptom of an underlying disease that has something to do with your internal organs.  If, as you've said, you've tried everything topical to get rid of the smell but you can't, it could have something to do with your diet or something is not working properly inside of you.  Get some tests done and you'll soon find out what it is and get proper treatment for it.

Basically everyone has bacteria on their bodies that can smell.  Bacteria like to be in warm and wet places, like feet, so on feet they tend to multiply more, and cause more smell.  This is the same reason your armpits usually smell.\n\nHowever, athlete's foot (a fungus) can cause smell as well.

What kind of restaurants?  To be honest, this sounds exactly like an allergic reaction to MSG, a food additive, to me!  And that would explain why it doesn't happen at home.

Okay a few options:\n\n1. Check your diet. Garlic and onions seep out through the skin. Broccoli and other such give you gas and can also cause odor, and there are plenty of other foods that change your body chemistry as you eat them.\n\n2. Change your deoderant. Maybe a spray instead of a stick, and spray your torso. \n\n3. Check your soap. Some perfumed soaps don't react well with a person's body chemistry making a minor smell more apparent.\n\n4. Make sure you're clothes let your body breathe. Also check to make sure your clothes don't make it worse. I thought I was having an issue but it turned out that one of my suits (for reasons I still don't know) was stinking to high heaven when I sweated. The others were fine.\n\n5. There are several natural odor-eliminatory sprays you can use. www.approachit.net has a really good one. I use it if I know I'll be hustling around in the heat and won't have time to put on deoderant except in the morning. A few sprays and I'm odor-free (not to mention my house and office!)\n\nGood luck!

Yes smelling things that aren't there can be a sign, but a very rare one. My husband was just diagnosed with a brain tumor and  had surgery. The only sign he had was that his right side stopped working. No headaches or anything. You can go to hope.abta.org for more info.

Certain foods can cause odors to be secreted from the body within sweat or other bodily fluids (ie: garlic, onions). \n\nBad breath can be caused by not doing a thourough cleaning of the tongue. Also, alchohol, including mouthwashes containing it, make bad breath worse.\n\nIt may not be the person themselves causing the odor. It could be the clothes they are wearing. Certain odors from the surrounding air/environment can embed themselves in clothes (ie: cigarette/cigar smoke odors). Also, if they are not washing there clothes in hot enough water bactera can still be present on them. We all know bacteria thrives in moist, dark areas so if the bacteria is present for example in the armpit of a shirt, if the individual wearing it perspires, this moisture combined with the darkness of the armpit area can cause the bacteria to thrive and produce an odor. \n\nWhen we think of "B.O." we think of the stink being screted by the individual themselves when in fact sweat dosn't stink at all. It is the bacteria that causes the smell.\n\nA natural way to rid the body of odor would be to wash frequently to prevent bacteria growth and to avoid foods with strong flavours and odors.

poop isnt supposed to smell bad, really!!!  Its just a bad diet that causes the stench.  I am a vegetarian and my poop has no odor!

What you smell like when you sweat is directly related to what you eat.  If you consume pungent food like garlic and onions, your sweat can smell terrible!  Some foods can make your sweat smell sweet -- pineapple, reportedly.  So, try changing your diet, and of course shower regularly with deodorant soap.

Dude.. that used to happen to me all the time when I would work food service. I would come home and smell all sorts of funky. Now I smell like chocolate or vanilla or sometimes even strawberry. I work in an ice cream factory... but smelling like nasty milk is not very appealing either.

funny you should ask....I was just recently talking to someone about 'whipped cream'.  I love the stuff.  Primarily on ice cream, fruit, waffles, hot cocoa, pie, pudding, and sandwiched between 2 graham crackers and then frozen.  \n\nBut our conversation wasn't regarding whipped cream on food/beverages....it was about 'wc' on the body.  She was telling me that she likes the taste of it but not the 'smell' it leaves when its gone.  I wasn't sure what she meant so I put some on my finger.  I licked it off and then smelled.  Whaddaya know...she was right.  It smelled like milk gone awry.  *shrugs*  just thought I'd share that with ya.
