I would like to take a moment to introduce
ourselves. I am a biologist who used to have a
very real, very embarrassing problem- foot and underarm odor. I seem to
sweat more than anyone else I know which, as we all know, exacerbates odor problems. My wife is a chemical engineer (whose
only foot and underarm odor problem was my own). We teamed up, to study
and develop a scientifically based treatment for foot and underarm odor.
We knew that masking the odor was not the solution to my problem. I
once was asked what cologne I was wearing. The cologne was my thick deodorant! -
How embarrassing. We set out to first understand the odor and find out
what the exact cause of the odor was. We next set out to determine how to
eliminate the odor at its source so that it would not come back later on in the
day.
We experimented with many different ways to eliminate the odor from
shoes, including conventional ways such as shoe sprays, inserts and powders to
unconventional ways such as using the washing machine filled with various
detergents and chemicals and even wetting, then microwaving the shoes to destroy the bacteria.
I must say that I was quite proud of this last idea. The theory was that microwaving
a wetted pair of sneakers would create steam (or at least very, very hot
water) which would sterilize the sneakers and thus eliminate the odor causing
bacteria. I am unhappy to report that this method not only did not get rid
of the odor but made my kitchen smell very bad and also made the glued surfaces of
the sneakers peel apart! We did eventually come up with the solution,
which turned out to be the least expensive and easiest of the methods we tried.
I have been odor free for years now. I will never forget the
embarrassment I suffered and resulting lack of self-confidence. Rid yourself of
the shame and embarrassment of foot and underarm odor. What else could you do
that is so easy which will have a positive lifelong impact.
