You either have East Asian ancestry, and therefore an ABCC11 mutation, or you reek to high-heaven and are nose blind to it. Diets are not correlated with a lack of body odor, our bodies likely produce strong odor for mating purposes so there would be no circumstance where you wouldn’t have one, sans the aforementioned mutation.
So, either you got dry-ass, clumpy ear wax (another mutation symptom) or you stink and can’t tell. Sorry bud, if it’s the latter.
I think it might be because I mostly wear wool and linen clothing (including underwear). Body odour is mostly bacteria and wet cotton is excellent growing grounds for them. I often have people (mostly women) tell me I smell great and ask what schampo/bodywash i use. Thing is I use the most basic perfume-less one.
Nope. Your body odor is associated with your secondary sex traits, not cotton. You start stinking when you hit puberty. You might not smell as bad because you never made an antibacterial nest in your armpit where just whatever can grow once it’s gone, instead it being filled with your natural flora, but that does not change that you have more body odor than those around you (for both good and ill)
