People excrete things in their sweat.

For me it is garlic and onions!

There are over 100 organic compounds eliminated thru the skin.

Some people have amino acid disruptions too...some genetic and that can affect body odor.

I occasionally do isopropyl alcohol on the arm pits when the onion thing gets too potent. That seems to help. I used alot of garlic and onions on vacation.. this year, cooking more from scratch.

I did notice after menopause there is a distinct change in body odor, most of it beneficial IMO for me. That may be hormone driven as well.

Thiamine B1 is a common cause of odors..of a yeasty nature.
But the Benfotiamine version does not do this for me at at least.
