Changes in Sweating Topic

So kinda gross I know but since I’ve majorly cut down on calories and am eating differently, my underarms sweat ALL the time… and it’s a strong scent (to me.. my bf hasn’t noticed). I’ve switched to different anti perspirants to see if that would help but it didn’t. I have to wash like 3 times a day. Is this normal when you change your diet?! It’s so annoying! Thanks!

Hi ItsJennyB,
I am not familiar with the issue you are describing. The only thing I can tell you is that very large amounts of pungent foods like garlic can cause body odor in some people.

Are you on a keto diet by chance? Ketosis can cause body odor.

I would consult with your doctor to see if they can help you figure out if it is a medical issue. Please keep us posted. Brenda (MyNetDIary Dietitian)

Yeah I don’t eat much garlic or anything like that at all. No I’m not on Keto. So weird but I’ll ask them. :) Thanks!
