Hard work requires heavy-duty gear. And the warmer it gets, the more you’ll be sweating in that gear while putting in long hours. So, if your job keeps you outside for a considerable amount of the day, all while working up a lot of sweat, we have some tips to help you eliminate odors.
Use preventative methods like applying a strong and effective antiperspirant instead of a deodorant. Antiperspirants that contain higher levels of aluminum chloride can keep sweat levels in check.
Invest in apparel with some ventilation and some type of odor-fighting treatment. Wearing synthetics like this Polygiene-treated shirt can control the growth of odor-causing bacteria, allowing you to stay fresh throughout the day.
Sweat is undoubtedly a huge contributor to producing unwanted odors. Proper nutrition and incorporating healthy habits can be influential in keeping sweat at bay. Some foods are more prone to triggering sweat than others, like spicy, fried and carb-heavy foods. So, you may want to think twice about having the hottest chicken wings during your next lunch break. Hydrating also keeps your body cool – so instead of perspiring more, drinking lots of water will actually stop sweat from building up.
