Luckily, there are natural remedies besides regular deodorants that can help you treat body odour.

Apple cider Vinegar is a fermented juice made from crushed apples. Mix it with water and apply it to your underarms using cotton wool. Let it dry and rinse it off in the shower.
Apple cider vinegar helps balance the skin’s pH and fights odour-causing bacteria.
Simply apply a small amount of coconut oil to your underarms. The properties found in coconut oil limit the growth of odour-causing bacteria.
It also has the added benefit of promoting digestive health and fighting off bad breath.
Applying coconut oil to the skin and adding it to your diet will help prevent body odour.
Baking soda acts as a natural deodoriser and absorbs odour.
