text: what are the most simplest and basics ways to treat body odor normally at home?   good hygene of course.  also, what you eat (garlic for example) may be a contibuting factor in body odor orally and through the sweat glands.  a good absorbing powder (gold bond) may help subdue the sweating factor as well as the use of a good deodorant. have your blood and urine checked to see if you have abnormal body chemistries..and see a dentist if the problem is persistant oral odor.  if your feet are part of the problem...you may have fungal infections...see  a podiatrist or your own general physician for medications to eliminate the problem.  also, you may have to bathe more frequently and change into fresh clean clothes more frequently.
