INGREDIENTS: baking soda
INSTRUCTIONS: When I was growing up, my mother use to tell me "never use
deodorant products, look at me, my body became addicted to it!" she went
on suggesting I use only soap washing at least twice aday and, if the odor or
sweat persist, substitute soap for backing soda, for a few days. Method: put
a litlle amount of bakingg soda, about a spoonful, in the palm of your hand,
add little water to make a paste, apply to armipits, rinse. It works!

an odor. This worked for me, immediately. Also, I happend to runlow on Dial
so I used my facial soap under my arms, big mistake. The odor came back. You
have to use a antibacterial soap. Hope this helps.

Ingredients: Magnesium tablets
Instructions: Someone close to you have stinky feet or really ripe "pits"?
Get them some magnesium tablets. I'm a home health care
professional for almost 20 yrs. This even worked for a friend's 8 yr old, who's
really too young to be having this problem. Her problem was caused by a magnesium
deficiency. Her mom gave her the tablets and she no longer "ranked"
among her peers.

10 crushed fireflies
Saran Wrap (Optional)

very stinky Great Great Grandfather that everyone told stories about- but when
he used the remedy he was cured -no more BO!First you mix 1 cup syrup with 2
Tbsp lemon juice. Then crush about ten fireflies up and dump them in the mixture.
Apply the paste to your armpits - works well if you put a piece of Saran wrap
over your armpit after application. Leave this on for abotu 30 minutes- then
shower. This remedy only needs repeated 4 times a year- Be sure to catch some
fireflies in a jar and save them to make your mixture in the winter months if
you have trouble with BO during that time.

Ingredients: mineral salts
Instructions: I found this at a health food store and it works miracles. Its
called "THAI CRYSTAL" deodorant stone. You just wet it and put it
on like deodorant! All it is is mineral salts, that kill the bacteria that cause
odor. It istruly amazing how well it works!! I have always had a real problem
with body odour, predominently my under arms.
My grandmother shared an old secret from
Russia with me.
apply chunky peanut butter liberally on your under arms, every night before
you go to bed, if you are like me than this is usually only required in the
summer months, and no more body odour.
It works like a Charm!!!!

Tawas (white stone)
Take a bath daily. After each bath, apply tawas (powedered or stone form) on your armpits. No bad odor plus whitens your skin too.
April
Start off by drinking 1 12oz can of tomato juice per day for 1wk. The next week slack down to maybe 1 can every 2 to 3 days. Once the odor has cleared drink this juice on an "as needed" basis. The salt in this juice evens out the PH balance. I had this problem all my life and fell into a deep depression for years as a result. There have been days when I'd forget to use deodorant and wasn't bothered with underarm odor any that day.
Austin, Texas, USA
With the recent concerns about the aluminum in over the counter deodorants not being good for you and clogging your pores, I decided to try something different. I just take a bunch of those flat cotton pads that people use to put on makeup, stack them in a jar that has a tight fitting lid, and soak them with rubbing alcohol. I keep a jar at work and a jar at home and swipe one across my armpits anytime I need to freshen up. When used in conjunction with regular normal showering, I don't need deodorant at all anymore, because the alcohol kills any bad-smelling bacteria. Another bonus from this method is that I can wear sleeveless fashions, and not have to worry about white residue. Plus rubbing alcohol is cheap and lasts a long time! Another thing you can do to reduce BO is to eat less refined sugar. Excess sugar will be present in your sweat and bacteria love to feed on it. Less sugar = fewer bacteria = less BO!
Here's a home remedy for body odor I got
from the Vietnamese newspaper.
My friend tried it and it worked great! All you lose is the two dollars
for the ginger.
Get one big piece of ginger and mash it
up. Put it in a hankerchief or
anything so you can squeeze it to get the water from it. After shower,
apply it under your armpit with cotton. You will get rid of it (BO) in
two weeks. Every time after you use it, save the ginger water in the
refrigerator.
