Body odor is the disagreeable stench that emanates from your body because of perspiration. Body odor is a social embarrassment and you must know the different types of body odor to know how to fight this problem.

Body Odor

At one time, I had a lot of body odor, but now that I am aware of the types of body odor, I have taken proper steps to overcome this problem. You can have foul smelling perspiration if you consume garlic, specific medicines or if you do not bathe regularly. Excessive foul smelling sweat can be an indication of a serious medical problem and you must not take it lightly.

Let me explain it simply, body odor is of two types. The first is due to eccrine sweat glands located all over the body and you can perspire due to anger, excitement or nervousness. The second type of body odor is due to sweating caused by secretion of the apocrine glands located over the chest area. They release pheromones that are responsible for attracting your mate and it will be a smell specific to you.
