body odor is an unpleasant odor emitted from the armpits, which can affect people's social activities and even increase psychological burden. Especially in the hot summer, excessive sweating will make body odor more obvious. What causes body odor and how to treat it thoroughly. How does
body odor come from?
1, small sweat glands
bromhidrosis of the small sweat glands often occurs in the palms, soles and intertrivial areas, and the small sweat glands have no color or taste. When the body sweats too much, the bacteria that are parasitic on the skin surface will break down the sweat and release a large amount of fatty acids, thus producing a special smell. In addition, some heavy-tasting foods such as arsenic or garlic, leeks, or onions can also be excreted through the eccrine glands, resulting in foul smell.
2, apocrine glands
apocrine glands are concentrated in the belly button, under the armpits, areola and external auditory canal. The secretions not only contain water, but also protein and lipids. Because of the action of microorganisms, these substances will form short-chain fatty acids , which produce odorous ammonia, so the apocrine glands are the main part of body odor.
3, genetic
body odor also has a certain genetic predisposition, which generally occurs in adolescence. Due to endocrine, hormone and emotional influence, the apocrine glands under the armpits discharge a lot of sweat. Bacteria remaining on the surface of the skin, especially staphylococci, will decompose to produce unsaturated fatty acids, which give off peculiar smells. If both parents have body odor, the chances of inheritance from their children are extremely high. How does
