how come body odor smells?

Question

how does body odor get to smell the way it smells? where does the smell come from?

Answer 1

A quick Google search reveals:

Though most people think of body odor as being caused by perspiration, there is more to the problem than this. Body odor is actually produced by a combination of anaerobic bacteria and products excreted from your body during exertion or periods of raised metabolism. Moisture and the secretions of apocrine sweat glands promote the growth of these bacteria on the skin which result in an odor. Perspiration itself has no particular smell.

The smell of waste products excreted by our bodies is also affected by toxins we have ingested or absorbed into our bodies. In a modern environment our bodies are subjected to a host of chemicals and toxins in our food - including pollution in the air and even household cleaning products.

These toxins may accumulate and reduce proper functioning of the intestines, liver and kidneys - organs usually very adept at eliminating toxic products quickly and effectively. This clogging effect on the organs of elimination causes toxins to be excreted through the skin, leading to unpleasant and embarrassing body odor.

Diet is another important factor affecting body odor. Certain foods, such as onion, garlic, spicy dishes, fried foods and coffee can dramatically, though temporarily, increase unpleasant body odor. People who are prone to body odor should avoid these types of food. In the long-term, poor dietary habits can also lead to constipation and micronutrient deficiencies - two other culprits of body odor.

Answer 2

Because the toxin of the weed is coming out your pores. Hell I know that an I never smoke the stuff. Also if and when you go to work you may want to cut the crap out like six months before you start putting out your resumes cause Most people think it stays only 30 days, but that is like if you smoke on joint or blunt and never pick it up again. If you have used for a long time (sound like you have) it will be in your system for a long time. But that is my 2 cents worth.

Answer 3

There are bacteria on EVERYONE'S body. These bacteria eat the dead skin and other things off of our bodies, but that process produces a smell. That's why you need to clean in order to remove the waste products.

Answer 4

Uric acid in sweat, and bacteria.
