Six ways to battle body odor and smell good all over.
LISA TURNER

Body odor is natural and normal, and sweating is necessary—but if you’re like most people, you’ll gladly pass on funky feet, stinky pits, and bad breath. No sweat. These six solutions for the most pungent parts of your body will leave you smelling fresh and clean, naturally.

1 Your pits. The armpit area is rich in apocrine glands that produce a viscous fluid high in protein and lipids. Bacteria on your skin break these down, releasing that characteristic smell. Shower daily, more if you’re working out or in hot weather, and get rid of excess hair—it traps bacteria and moisture, which exacerbates odor. Use a natural antiperspirant or deodorant that’s free from parabens and aluminum compounds. Activated charcoal can minimize wetness without clogging pores, and deodorants made with essential oils fight bacteria and stop the stink.

Product picks:

* Nubian Heritage Lemongrass & Tea Tree Bar Soap

* Dr. Bronner’s Peppermint Shaving Soap

* Schmidt’s Natural Charcoal + Magnesium Deodorant

* Lafe’s Deodorant Roll-On Active (Citrus + Bergamot)
