Tomatoes cause under-arm odour.

Med Hypotheses

May 2014

14 Marshallstown Rd, Downpatrick, Co Down, N Ireland BT30 8AH, UK. Electronic address:

Under arm odour [axillary odour AO, bromidrosis] is a deeply unpleasant problem that can affect a person's self confidence and esteem and reduce social interaction. It is generally managed by good hygiene along with antiperspirants and deodorants, but the axillary apocrine glands may need surgical removal in severe cases of odour. The odour comes from microbial conversion of the apocrine secretions into short chain fatty acids like isovaleric acid and volatile sulphur compounds like 3-sulphanylhexan-1-ol.
