Civilization demands people to respect themselves and those around them, by being polite, decent and even more important, clean. A foul body odor will utterly destroy the first impression and even those who know each other for years will have a hard time enjoying each other’s company. It goes without saying that any business or successful career can be severely affected by body odor, even though there is no direct link between the two elements. Regardless of causes it and its severity, those who are unlucky enough to have this problem, need to make it their top priority to find a remedy.
The Relationship Between Sweat And Body Odor
The body’s natural odor is barely noticeable and won’t cause any problems, but if you add sweat into the mix, you get a disgusting result. Avoiding physical activity before an important meeting or a special moment is common sense and whenever people know that time is of the essence and taking a shower is not possible, sports and exercise should be avoided. The problem with persistent body odor that has no obvious cause is that the underlying causes can be more severe, such as a bacterial infection. On the bright side, such a condition is easily visible and if treated promptly, the side effect will also vanish.
