Foods that improve body odor.
What should we eat more of to smell better?
CITRUS FRUITS - the acids contained in citrus fruits like oranges, limes, and lemons help optimize the passage of water through the body, which minimizes toxins.
GREEN LEAFY VEGETABLES - due to their high chlorophyll content. Chlorophyll helps neutralize odor-causing components in the body. If you're not eating enough greens, supplement with DETOX drops, which are composed of chlorophyll.
FIBER - Foods rich in fiber, think beans, lentils, and the SUPER FEMININE protein (super rich in fiber and pro- and prebiotics). They are super important for supporting digestion. They even help to "absorb" bad internal odors and detoxify more effectively and quickly, meaning less of it has to come out through sweat.
