What can cause you to smell bad?
There are many reasons that can generate an uncomfortable smell in you, and not just the lack of a bath or habits of hygiene. Even so, experts warn that, most of the time, basic hygiene can solve the problem. But if you take a lot of showers and it's still not enough, check out what might be causing the situation.
Trichomycosis
You may have never heard of trichomycosis, however, this condition is more common than you might think. In this case, it is a bacterial infection that is more common in regions of the body where hair grows, such as the armpits and also the groin. On these occasions, the right thing is to turn to a dermatologist for treatment.
Stress
We all know how much stress can be very uncomfortable for most people, but few can identify it as one of the main causes of bad smell. That's because stress greatly increases perspiration, which can leave you with a rather intense odor in unsettling situations.
Eating habits
Some research has already shown that what you eat can be crucial to how you smell. For example, eating meat in excess, to the detriment of vegetables, can lead to a more intense smell. However, you also need to be careful with some vegetables, such as cruciferous vegetables, as they have more sulfur.
Diabetes
Finally, we have a condition that affects millions of Brazilians and people all over the world, which is diabetes. In this case, the bad smell is stronger mainly in the breath, which is due to diabetic ketoacidosis. Experts even warn that this may be one of the first signs that the body is short of insulin.
