These Foods Will Give A Bad Breath And Also A Smelly Body Odor    

Among Them Are Alcohol, Broccoli, Dairy Products, Onions, And Garlic    

Bad breath is not the only source of foul smells in the body. Certain foods can also release bad smell through the skin. In the case of bad breath, a solution is brushing the teeth or using mouthwash after meals, but if the smells are being released through the sweat and skin, the solution is more complicated. There are foods and drinks that can cause these odors, such as alcohol, which is metabolized into acetic acid and is secreted through the sweat. The combination of sweat and acid is processed by skin bacteria, which leaves a characteristic smell. Also, cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli and cauliflower, and dairy products, include sulfur, a substance that smells like rotten eggs, that is released in the sweat. Spicy foods, along with garlic and onions contain sulfur, but also have volatile organic compounds, which gives the characteristic smell to the breath and skin. In some cases, meat and fish can also release a smelly substance through the skin. More info click here.
