The human armpit has a lot to offer bacteria. It's moist, it's warm, and it's usually dark. But when the bacteria show up, they can make a stink. That's because when some kinds of bacteria encounter sweat they produce smelly compounds, transforming the armpit from a neutral oasis to the mothership of body odor. And one group of bacteria is to blame for the stink, researchers say.
1 Try using apple vinegar or other malt vinegar to neutralize the armpits' natural odor-causing bacteria. 2  This in turn creates a drying effect in your underarm, which conditions your armpits to sweat less and to stay dry. 3  Try a mixture of lemon juice and tomato pulp before bed. 4  Let sit for 15 minutes. Applying deodorant will do nothing to stop your armpits from sweating though it will mask the odor. 2  You can't stop your body from perspiring completely without medical procedures, which are typically only performed in extreme cases.
