| Jun 11, 2015 at 14:08 | comment | added | celeriko | @Kishore obviously a shower is the best way to get clean but the question was specific about non-bathing methods. There are many reasons for this (homeless, water shut off, camping, extended power outage), i do not question the reasons i just answer the question :) | |

| Mar 7, 2015 at 14:28 | comment | added | piojo | @celeriko watch the pseudoscience--"chlorophyll... is a natural deodorizer". For this to be relevant, it needs to: 1) migrate (in sufficient amounts to have an effect) to the appropriate body regions after being eaten in normal food quantities, and 2) persist for long enough that the effect is useful. Also, odors come from the skin. Have you noticed that "fresh" sweat, immediately after a shower, never smells? | |

| Feb 11, 2015 at 17:20 | comment | added | celeriko | my own experience (i used to eat very poorly and after changing my diet to much more veggies I actually was able to just stop using deodorant at all because my BO was no longer extant) and also the fact that chlorophyll which is found in fruits and veggies is a natural deodorizer, if you eat a lot of foods which don't have chlorophyll, i.e. processed foods, then the odors will build up and come out when you sweat. | |

| Feb 11, 2015 at 16:56 | comment | added | whitewings | You have some good tips. Do you have sources to back up the claim that processed foods cause sweat to be super stinky? | |
