Sweat - an integral part of the human organism Sweating has two main functions: cooling the body by the evaporation of water and eliminating waste products from the body. Sweat is also a vital part of the skin's protective mantle, which has an average pH value of 5.5. Therefore, sweating has its positive sides. The unpleasant symptom of sweat Sweat itself is originally odourless. The unpleasant body odour occurs only when bacteria degrade the sweat components to malodourous metabolites. There are three ways to combat the development of unpleasant odour: Anti-perspirants or anti-transpirants which inhibit the formation of sweat, thus also prevent the normal cooling and excretory functions of sweat. The blocking of the sweat glands by plugs of skin proteins, formed with the anti-transpirant agents, can lead to their damage resulting in an increased risk of inflammation and loss of function. Antibacterial substances or antiseptics which inhibit or kill bacteria on the skin. This may cause irritation and increases the risk of infections. Covering the body odour by perfume as another means of deodorization also carries the risk of allergies and irritation by excessive exposure to potentially noxious fragrance substances.
