» hoosiergirl84 - underarm odor
In response to underarm odor posted by desert5:I think the "remedy" is hydrogen peroxide. Soak a cotton ball/pad in peroxide and rub under your arm. It kills the bacteria that causes odor. I've also heard putting vanilla extract on a cotton pad and using that will help. I've also been doing research, and you can try cutting a lemon and rubbing it under your arm. Also, sometimes, you can have a zinc or magnesium deficiency, so try a mineral supplement of one or both of those things. Hope that helps!

In response to Don't bother posted by Clana:Botisol probably does not work. It's a scam. Selmedica is being sued by other companies and their "supplement" is not FDA approved. Think about it, if Botisol really worked, wouldn't we all be taking it? Look at previous posts for the link to the lawsuit. They probably sell you the same pill for every problem they try to cure. Save your money and don't take Botisol.

In response to underarm odor posted by stinkbomb:Stinkbomb, have you talked with a dermatologist about your dark underarms? I'm assuming you have. Anyways, they might be dark from all the chemicals you have tried on them. Peroxide is kind of harsh on the underarms. I'm praying for all of you and I hope you find a cure. best of luck, I'll keep checking up on you guys.

In response to underarm odor posted by runlikehell:Hey guys, try a deodorant/antiperspirant with Calcium Chloride. Try "Dry Idea Unscented". It is the most effective deodorant/antiperspirant that I have used for odor control. Calcium Chloride is salty and inhibits bacteria etc. Good luck.
