» hadenuff3 - This worked for me!!
In response to This worked for me!! posted by jos17:This is why I have mentioned Long lasting deodorant cream by the company NOW. It contains zinc oxide, and arnica which is a herb that was mentioned in another message board, plus other ingredients. It is all in one product you don't have to run all over to get items and mix your own. Just go to the NOW website. Yes Lavilin is a deodorant made by this same company but it costs twice as much and I feel it didn't work as well plus I don't this one use it at night. Like I said I don't sell anything I'm looking for products the same as all that come to this site. I have been on this message board before searching. I'm sorry but I don't think that a person has to shave every hair off of their body!Shaveing underarms yes, but cleaning (bathing daily) is what we all do! I'm suggesting a cost effective product I hope some of you at least go to the web site and read about the deodorant. I've been suffering with this problem for years,spent hundreds of dollars a month on products, seen many DRS. had underarms burned raw with products and this is the first that has given me releif without a production of mixing products, going without certain foods, costing a fortune,burning my skin, and haveing to be reapplied during the day. I'm done I hope someone else will try it!!!!!

In response to This worked for me!! posted by kazy:Hi
I have the same problem with BO noted since I began menstrating. It got particularly bad during and following my 2 pregnancies with no let up and on the days prior to my periods.
I have sought help many times from my GP but they have bascially dismissed me as being mad as they couldn't give me answers to my BO problem besides washing more which I do anyway.
I discovered that my diet and weight gain(to an extent) has played a huge factor in the BO. For me after much trial and error, I have cut down on spicy foods/herbs i.e garlic and red meats. This was as my BO was all over my body, particularly im my private areas.
I've been teased, looked down on, laughed at and made to feel nasty by colleagues at work as they believe I'm a dirty person who doesn't wash.
This has got me really down as this is far from the truth. I shower 3 x a day, morning during lunch and evening. I have found that since I have been going to the steam room my skin has improved tremdously and the amount of underarm sweat has greatly reduced. I feel more confident to lift my arms up without having them stuck by my side due to huge wet patches.as cut down.
I have a found that there has been no one cure but I have had to adjust my eating and overall routines as follows,
1. Drink as much water as you can with a slice of lemon to help flush your system out, particularyly 1st thing in the morning. Continue to drink as much water as you can during the day.
2. Cut down or out on sugar, this triggers thrush imn me and general body itching.
3. Wear cotton/linen only.
4. Use white vinegar to wash your clothes (approx 1/2 cup and add 2 tbs spoons of bicarbonate of soda) as this helps to neturalise sweat and takes the smell out of the clothes. For this I use a spray gun with white veinegar and spray the swaety parts of my clothes. Leave for approx 1 hour and wash. Rinse thoroughly on a prolonged cycle. Always spray the white vinegar on dirty clothes even if you're not washing them straight away..it won't harm the clothes and the BO smells come out from the clothes.
5. I Use Sure Anti-perspirant a deodrant that doesn't leave white marks.
6. I appear to be alergic to Aloe Vera deodrant products as they don't work & make me smell worse.
^ I have a steam at least 4 x per week as this grattly helps to control the BO. However, make sure you drinks lots of water during and after your steam to re0hydrate your body...if not as I've found the BO comes back with a vengance.
7. Cut down on fruit juices & alcohol, & fizzie as this adds to my BO.
8. Also, after a steam I shower myself with cold water as cold as I can stand which helps to cut down on BO & reduces sweating greatly..
9. Eat lots of fruit & veg and natural products as much as possible, cut down on the junk food.
10. I buy inexpensive cotton tops and throw them away every 9- 16 weeks as I have noticed that at times the Bo is actually coming from my clothes onto my skins even though my clothes are freshly laundered.
11. I also buty 2-3 tops in the same colur/style and change into these during the day after having a shower or a wash at a gym near to my office.
I also use antibacterial or lemon soaps which also helps to cut down on the BO.
12. I wear fresh clothing compeltely every day and cannot wear a cardigan for 2 days.
13. Cut down on stress and do cardio excerises at least once a week.
Like a said its a whole routine I have to go through but when I stick to it the BO goes completely.
Good luck everyone. Hope my post my also help someone.

In response to what is the name of the website where i can purchase the NOW cre posted by pleasehelp68:You can go to their web site www.nowfoods.com and look for long lasting deodorant cream 2.2oz they will also show a highlight so you can see if a local health store is near you that is stocking it be sure to copy down the product # if you call a local store. If they don't stock it they can order it by that number. If you want to order over the internet you can through now foods web site. I know 2.2 oz doesn't seem like much but it is thick I've used it for 3 weeks now and used only 1/4 of the jar. You can also check other web sites for cheaper prices by useing long lasting deodorant.com just be sure it is now foods. The one by TOMS natural deodorant didn't work for me.
