Regular showers or baths are the first step in combating body odour followed closely by clean clothes and underwear.
Using an antiperspirant or deodorant will also help keep sweating at bay.
News stories about mass-produced antiperspirants possibly contributing towards cancer have created a desire for more natural products.
Essential oils
These use essential oils such as sage, tea tree and lemon that combat odour, or crystal salts (minerals) that neutralise bacteria.
Keep trim
Excess sweating can be due to overweight, too much alcohol and spicy food so changing your diet could help.
Get a check-up
In some instances it can be an indication of an underlying health condition such as an overactive thyroid or blood sugar problems.
Stay fresh
Sweaty feet are a real turn-off.
Change socks regularly, wear socks made of natural fibres and leather shoes so feet can breathe and wash your feet regularly.
Anti fungal
Try a foot deodorant containing mineral salts or tea tree oil, which is anti-fungal.
