Did you know that using deodorants and antiperspirants to controlbody odoris actually bad for you? That's right, and if you have been using them, you should stop using them, and start using natural remedies.

Replace those foods with raw fruits and vegetables, herbs and nuts; these foods help to remove the toxins which are actually the cause of body odor . By removing the toxins we can get rid of the body odor.
