Did you know
that sweat is basically odorless?
The key to understanding odor...
To "cure"
underarm odor, foot
odor, or shoe odor it is necessary to understand where these odors come from
and then eliminate the SOURCE of these odors. Odor is a byproduct of the metabolic process of bacteria (mainly
corynebacteria and micrococci) which break down organic substances
found on your skin, in your sweat or on your clothing. These foot and underarm
odor causing bacteria flourish in moist warm areas. This is why the most
prevalent body odors are found in the arm pits and feet. These are perfect
warm, moist breading grounds for bacteria- any bacteria. Moisture can collect in
these areas and can not readily evaporate.

It is important to realize that bacteria cover every surface of your skin and
are inside your pores and sweat glands. Bacteria are in the air and
on everything you touch. Bacteria are not necessarily bad. There is a natural balance of
"good" and "bad" bacteria on your skin, in your airways
and even in your intestines. Due to the natural balance of these bacteria, the
"bad" bacteria are not present in sufficient numbers to cause disease
(e.g. pneumonia, certain ulcers, etc) or in this case, persistent excessive
odor.
"Bad" bacteria for our discussion includes corynebacteria and micrococci,
the bacteria that causes unpleasant body odors and the odors emanating from your
shoes. Both of these bacteria are present on the
surfaces of everyone's body at all times. The difference is that they are in a
much higher concentration on someone who has odor problems.
Luckily, this is
NOT a permanent problem. In fact, your body will naturally be odor-free just as it
naturally is disease-free. Sometimes, in people suffering from odor problems, a little push
is all that is necessary. The regimen I developed provides a large
push. The regimen restores the
"natural" balance of
bacteria by destroying the excess unwanted, odor causing bacteria on the skin
thereby allowing the "good" bacteria to re-establish themselves as the
predominant bacteria- this is the natural balance.
The natural bacterial balance is an odor-free balance!
Consumer product companies sell antiperspirants and
deodorants which help reduce moisture or mask the odor with a perfume or
fragrance. Most of us know these products don't
control the odor for very long, if at all. I've
suffered the embarrassment of someone asking me what cologne I was wearing, when
the "fragrance" was that of my heavy underarm
deodorant. I am here to tell you that all this stuff is not
necessary and is a waste of your valuable money. Unfortunately, there is
absolutely no reason for consumer product companies to sell a product to actually "cure" your
odor. They make money by selling you their products month after month.
You can eliminate these odors using supplies which you can
purchase at the grocery store, corner store, or local drug store chain for less than $2!
