    Body odor from sitting
    After sitting for more than hour I notice an odor. I shower every day but still have this problem. My job requires me to sit at a desk all day. Please help!

    The odour is most likely coming from the padding in the chair.

    Try a different chair for starters. Are you overweight? Extra fat on your sitter can keep the area damp and bacteria and fungus (which cause odor) thrive in warm, dark, moist environments. Baby powder can help keep you from getting sweaty. Shower with a different type of soap just to see if there is a difference. A visit to the restroom with a few cleansing wipes may be a good idea during the day.

    A physician visit may be a good idea if the problem persists.

    Mix fresh lemon juice (4 to 5 lemon) in your bathing water. This is the best method to remove body's foul smell. Take bath daily with lime juice in your bathing water. You can observe the effect after a week or so.
    PS:Only lime juice, please don't mix anything in that, like sugar or something. OK.
    This will really help.
